Master in ICT and Internet Engineering

Tuition fees for Master in ICT and Internet Engineering are 906 EUR per year.

ICT and Internet Engineering is a two-year master's program taught in English at Università degli Studi di Roma Tor Vergata, in Roma, Italy. This program belongs to the field of information and communication technology engineering, with a particular emphasis on the technologies underlying the internet and modern communication networks. Typical coursework includes computer networks, telecommunications systems, network protocols and architecture, alongside subjects such as cloud computing, distributed systems, cybersecurity and the design of large-scale internet infrastructure. Students generally build a foundation in signal processing, software engineering and systems design before specializing in wireless and mobile networks, network security, or the management of internet services and infrastructure at scale. Coursework often also addresses emerging areas such as the Internet of Things and the technical challenges of connecting large numbers of devices reliably and securely. Given the central role of internet infrastructure in modern digital services, programs in this area typically combine theoretical understanding of networking principles with practical, hands-on work designing, configuring and troubleshooting networked systems. Graduates of ICT and internet engineering programs commonly pursue careers as network engineers, systems architects, telecommunications engineers or cybersecurity specialists, working for telecommunications operators, technology companies, internet service providers and organizations that manage large digital infrastructures. Some continue into further research in networking, distributed systems or telecommunications engineering. Roma, as Italy's capital, hosts a range of technology companies and research institutions relevant to this field. Taught in English, this master's program is intended for students, including those from outside Italy, who want to specialize in the engineering of internet and communication network technologies within an Italian university.
