Ingegneria Elettronica

Tuition costs 900 EUR per year.

Electronics Engineering is a two-year master's degree offered in English at Università degli Studi di Roma "La Sapienza" in Roma, Italy. This branch of engineering focuses on the design and application of electronic circuits and devices, ranging from individual components to complex integrated systems. Coursework typically covers analog and digital circuit design, examining how electronic components such as transistors and integrated circuits are combined to build functional systems, along with the theory underlying how these components behave under different conditions. Students usually study semiconductor devices, exploring the physical principles behind components such as diodes and transistors that form the building blocks of modern electronics. Embedded systems form another core area, covering how microcontrollers and processors are programmed and integrated into devices that interact with sensors and other hardware. Signal processing coursework often complements this training, addressing how electronic systems capture, filter, and interpret signals from the physical world. Courses on microelectronics and integrated circuit design are common as well, examining how increasingly complex functions are packed onto small semiconductor chips. Testing, measurement, and instrumentation topics typically round out the technical training, covering how electronic circuits and systems are verified and characterized in practice. Graduates of electronics engineering master's programs pursue careers in semiconductor and electronics manufacturing, telecommunications, automotive electronics, and embedded systems development, or continue toward doctoral research in microelectronics or related fields. Studying this discipline in English at an Italian university situated in Roma connects students to a country with an established presence in electronics and engineering research.
