LM32 Computer Engineering
Course description
The Master’s degree program aims at further developing knowledge of the most methodological aspects of Computer Engineering with particular reference to those requiring a high level of abstraction, allowing students to improve the ability to model reality, acquire adequate knowledge in the integration of different and sophisticated skills and technologies and increase their ability to interact in technological innovation processes. Subjects mainly belong to three sectors: artificial intelligence and machine learning, cybersecurity, big data and high-performance computing.
Students with a three-year university degree or qualification from any Italian university (or a foreign equivalent degree based on legal requirements) with a sufficient number of ETCS in the fields of mathematics, physics and, above all, computer engineering.
The Course aims to help students acquire advanced design skills and the ability to fully exploit technological innovation. This is pursued through the expansion of the theoretical and scientific-mathematical bases of Computer Engineering and modern methods and tools for the design of processing systems.

Unical is organized as an independent town that provides the best possible solutions of accommodation for students and staff living on campus, because it offers multiple services for study activities and for individual and collective well-being: libraries, the Language Learning Center, counselling and inclusion services. The Campus also includes a health center, a post office, a bank counter and a mindfulness dedicated area.
Discover moreResidential Center
It complements and completes the services provided by the University of Calabria and has put into shape the idea of a British-American campus-style University. It encompasses 10 districts hosting the university residences, consisting of apartments with double and single rooms, living room, kitchen and toilets. In these districts there are common areas for study and recreational activities and sports, there are TV rooms, game rooms and gyms; launderettes and bike rental services are also available.
