Internet and Multimedia Engineering

Tuition fees are 3,163 EUR per year.

Internet and Multimedia Engineering is a master's degree taught in English at Università degli Studi di Genova in Genova, Italy, over two years. This program belongs to the field of engineering, focusing specifically on the technologies that underpin internet systems and multimedia applications. Students typically study computer networks, software engineering, and telecommunications, alongside subjects covering multimedia technologies such as audio and video processing, web application development, and the protocols that support data transmission across the internet. Coursework often addresses the design and implementation of networked systems, the technical requirements of streaming and multimedia delivery, and the software architectures used to build internet-based applications and services. Because the discipline combines networking, software development, and multimedia processing, students build skills that apply to the design, development, and management of the systems that deliver digital content and services over the internet. Graduates of this field commonly pursue careers as software engineers, network engineers, and systems developers within technology companies, telecommunications providers, and media companies that rely on internet-based delivery of content and services. Others move into roles focused on multimedia application development, web engineering, or the design of networked infrastructure for streaming and communication services. The degree can also serve as a foundation for further research in computer engineering, networking, or multimedia technology. Based in Genova, a city with an established engineering faculty, and delivered entirely in English, the program is designed for students interested in the technical foundations of internet and multimedia systems.
