Nuclear engineering

The knowledge required for admission is the typical fundamental and professional knowledge of Industrial Engineering, common to many Bachelor’s Degree Courses in Engineering at the University of Pisa and other universities. Students holding a Bachelor's Degree in Physics may also be admitted, provided they have completed a programme that includes engineering-related subjects. Since the course is delivered in English, it does not only provide additional skills for students with an Italian Bachelor’s Degree, but also facilitates the access of international students with appropriate training.

CURRICULAR REQUIREMENTS

Students must hold a degree in Industrial Engineering (class L-9) or another degree as long as the following CFUs have been obtained: MAT/02, MAT/03, MAT/05, MAT/06, MAT/07, MAT/08, MAT/09, SECS-S/02, FIS/01, FIS/03, CHIM/03, CHIM/07 (42 CFU); ING-IND/9, ING-IND/10, ING-IND/11, ICAR/08, ING-IND/14, ING-IND/15, ING-IND/16, INF/01, FIS/02, FIS/04, ING-IND/19, ING-IND/34 (18 CFUs).

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 above-mentioned knowledge is subject to verification, from which candidates holding suitable certification may be exempted.

In any case, the verification of personal preparation requirements is foreseen, and it is carried out according to the methods defined in the Academic Regulations of the degree course.

For admission to the Master's Degree Course in Nuclear Engineering (Class LM-30) 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 in Nuclear Enginnering are established in accordance with art. 6, paragraph 2 of Ministerial Decree 270/2004. Admission to the Master's Degree Course in Nuclear Engineering Class LM-30 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.
