About this program
MSc in Mathematical Engineering
This study program aims at preparing professionals who are able to deal with complex design and managing problems by using advanced mathematical tools, yet with an engineering attitude. It combines a solid background in basic science with a sound knowledge of modern methods and technologies, with a persistent synergy between applied mathematics and engineering. When applying, the prospective student has to choose one out of the following three tracks: Computational Science and Engineering; Applied Statistics; Quantitative Finance.
Admission requirements
A Bachelor Degree in Mathematical Engineering or in a related area, with a solid background in the core disciplines: applied mathematics, computer science, physics, engineering.
Students With A University Qualification Obtained Outside Italy
Applicants to Master of Science programs are required to have a Bachelor degree or be in the process of completing a Bachelor degree. Admitted applicants will have to graduate before the enrollment.
Your undergraduate level program must contain subjects closely related to the MSc program you are applying to.
An English Or Italian Language Proficiency Certificate
If your bachelor degree was taught in English, you may upload a document certified by your university attesting the teaching language instead of the language certificate.
Country-Specific Requirements Related To Your Degree
If you studied in one of the countries listed in the institute wesbite, please read carefully the information and the details about the documents to be provided. If the country where you have completed/are studying your Bachelor degree is not listed in the institute website then there is no Country-specific requirements.
The requirements (minimum GPA included) are strict, and no exceptions will be considered.
Foreign Students With A University Qualification Obtained In Italy
If you have an Italian university qualification you may be admitted to graduate degree courses under the same conditions as Italian students.
