Program Overview
The two-year Laurea Magistrale program in Nuclear Engineering equips graduates with the expertise to design, construct, and operate nuclear power plants and systems. It offers three tracks: Nuclear Plants, Nuclear Technologies, and Nuclear System Physics. Graduates can secure employment in the nuclear sector, energy industry, medical field, and research institutions. The program is taught in English at the Milano Bovisa campus and requires a related undergraduate degree with basic nuclear education.
Program Outline
