1 – Admission application to a specialist master programme

A Specialist Master’s qualification is a "course of scientific specialisation and higher education, permanent and recurrent" and may be of 1st or 2nd level:

1. You can enrol at a 1st level course if you have a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree;
2. You can enrol at a 2nd level course if you have a Master’s degree

Specialist Masters’ courses activated by DIGSPES Department last one academic year and provide 60 academic credits. They are not always a regular event as they are offered year to year to provide, with elasticity and ductility, opportunities for continuous updating and specialisation.

Please Note: the Italian Specialist Master’s qualification is NOT equivalent to the traditional Master’s degree

On the post graduate study courses page of the Department website there is a list of the specialist master's offered at DiGSPES.

On the UPO website there is a complete list of the Specialist Master’s Programmes activated by our university and it is possible to filter the programmes according to the department that offers them.
