Per i candidati con titolo di studio acquisito all'estero e riconosciuto idoneo, la verifica dei requisiti viene effettuata sulla base dello specifico percorso formativo del candidato.
È inoltre richiesta una adeguata conoscenza della lingua inglese almeno di livello B2, secondo il Quadro Comune Europeo di riferimento per le Lingue.
La verifica della preparazione personale è effettuata sulla base del curriculum di studi del candidato, e può prevedere un colloquio orale.

For admission to the Master’s Degree Course in Artificial Intelligence and Data Engineering (Class LM-32) students require a Bachelor’s degree or another qualification obtained abroad and recognised as suitable. The applicant is required to submit an application along with attachments, including at least the degree certificate, or its equivalent, and the examination transcripts.

Based on the criteria illustrated below, the curricular requirements and the adequacy of personal preparation for access to the Master’s Degree Course are established in accordance with art. 6, paragraph 2, of Ministerial Decree 270/2004.

Admission to the Master’s Degree Course in Artificial Intelligence and Data Engineering Class LM-32 is decided on the basis of the existence of both (curricular and preparation) requirements. The Course Board appoints an Evaluation Instruction Panel (Commissione Istruttoria di Valutazione, CIV), consisting of two or more lecturers tasked with:

- reviewing applications for admission,

- assessing candidates’ CVs,

- checking whether candidates meet curricular and personal requirements,

- proposing to the Course Board the admission or non-admission of candidates,

- indicating how the missing requirements can possibly be met.

Alternatively, the candidate, who graduated from an Italian university, meets the curricular requirements if:

1) They possess a degree in the following classes: L-8 Information Engineering; L-30 Physics; L-31 Computer Science; L-35 Mathematics;

2) They possess a degree in another class, having obtained:

- at least 36 CFUs in the following SSDs (academic disciplines): MAT/02, MAT/03, MAT/05, MAT/06, MAT/07, MAT/08, MAT09, FIS/01, FIS/03;

- at least 9 CFUs in the following SSDs (academic disciplines): ING-INF/05, INF/01;

- at least 9 CFUs in the following SSDs (academic disciplines): ING-IND/35; SECS-P/08

If a candidate possesses a foreign degree, the CIV Panel will review the curricular requirements by considering the duration of each course and the content of the corresponding exams.

Proficient knowledge of English at least at level B2, according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, is also required. The possession of such requirement can be certified by students at the time of enrolment or, if no certification is available, it will be verified during the admission application review when assessing the student’s personal preparation.

In accordance with the University Academic Regulations, the CIV Panel:

- may propose to the Course Board to either accept or reject the candidate’s application based on the evaluation of the documents submitted with the application for admission,

- may propose to the Course Board that the candidate be referred to the admission interview in accordance with the procedure described below.

Admission interview

The purpose of the admission interview is to confirm that the candidate has the required preparation to effectively undertake their Master’s studies, especially regarding fundamental knowledge of mathematics and computer engineering. The interview programme, as determined by the CIV Panel, will be communicated to the candidate in advance by the president of the Course of Study.

At the end of the interview, the selection board will formulate a final judgement on the candidate’s suitability for admission, highlighting any missing requirements.
