Academic Organization

The Master’s Degree in Software Engineering is a structured course.

The course of studies is organized in five compulsory theoretical and practical subjects each of which deals with different aspects of Software Engineering and their contents are constantly updated from the beginning of the course of studies.

Moreover, it is required the attendance to Seminars on Research Methodology and Thesis Writing as prerequisites to submit the Thesis. These seminars are shared with the other Master’s Degree Courses but each course has a different ad-hoc module.

Although each course has an independent organization, there are complementary and non-compulsory activities (seminars, conferences, meetings of research projects, etc.) in order to help students choose the topic of their Thesis.
