ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC ENGINEERING

The Master's Degree Program in Electrical and Electronic Engineering aims to train professionals with a broad skill set across both disciplines, providing core knowledge while offering the flexibility to delve into various specialized fields through dedicated curricula and a wide range of elective courses. These fields include industrial automation, power electronics, measurement instrumentation, sensor systems for energy production, management and consumption, electromagnetic compatibility concerning interference and human safety, sensors and actuators for automotive applications, photovoltaics, topics related to industrial and biomedical applications, and much more.

The program is designed to equip all students with the foundational knowledge necessary to pursue any of these fields while offering the possibility to specialize early through one of the available curricula.

In particular, the course's primary educational goal is to shape interdisciplinary professionals capable of designing and managing components, devices, and systems that use or generate electrical energy, as well as developing analog and digital circuits and systems for industrial process control, signal generation, processing, and transmission.

To achieve this, the program sets specific learning objectives for all students, organized into key areas:

· Acquiring advanced knowledge of technologies for energy generation, conversion, and control, with a focus on industrial automation and electric mobility.

· Developing expertise in measurement instrumentation and the assessment of electrical quantities in machines, plants, and electrical and electronic circuits.

· Gaining proficiency in the design and integration of electronic, electromechanical, or photonic devices, circuits, and systems applied to electronic and industrial engineering contexts.

· Mastering the design of electromagnetic devices and circuits with specified radiation/emissivity and susceptibility characteristics, potentially employing numerical analysis techniques.

Additional educational objectives include:

· The ability to model and analyze physical systems through state-vector representations and to assess the dynamic response of linear and nonlinear systems in both continuous and discrete time.

· Completion of advanced mathematical tools.

· Understanding the physical principles governing the operation of major electrical and electronic devices and solid-state sensors, as well as acquiring skills in using CAD tools for designing complex analog and digital circuits.

· In-depth knowledge of automatic measurement systems and the ability to apply this knowledge through the design and development of innovative measurement architectures.

These general educational goals are achieved through core training activities related to the distinctive disciplines, as well as complementary and integrative activities such as Automation, Mathematics and Physics.

By defining specific curricula, developed during the second year, and offering a wide range of elective subjects, along with the preparation of a thesis in one of the department's laboratories or at a partner company, the Master's Degree Program in Electrical and Electronic Engineering gives students the opportunity to deepen their expertise in specialized application areas. These include recent developments in electronics applied to automation, technologies for efficient energy

conversion, electrical, electronic, and electromagnetic systems for biomedical applications, and related topics such as plant engineering and electromagnetic compatibility.
