• Curriculum passante
• Curriculum professionalizzante
• Second Level Degree - Laurea Specialistica

4
Modules and Credits

• The courses are organized in modules (classes)
• One module comprises
• 40 hours of lesson
• a certain number of credits (ECTS, 5 credits in
  average)
• Each module requires a final exam
• The required overall credits for the laurea di 1
  livello is 180

5
First Year of Engineering

• It is common to all the Engineering degrees
• It is mostly formed by exams of math, physics,
  computer science, economy, foreign language

An advantage of this system is that students can
change Engineering Area without loosing time and
credits

First Level Degree Laurea di 1 Livello

• This Degree allows the studens to enter the
  business world with specific knowledge and high
  preparation.
• To complete the laurea di 1o livello is necessary
  to acquire 180 credits distributed between
  foundamental courses, and complementary
  activities as English language, Communication
  and Business Culture.
• The students also acquire credits by
  accomplishing an internship in Industry or in a
  Corporation that has an agreement with the
  University

La ricerca in elettronica di potenza
Sviluppo di sistemi di alimentazione in diversi
settori partendo dalla piccola potenza (1-100W)
(alimentazione per lampade, cellulari, PC
portatili, etc..) a quella di media-alta potenza
(10-200kW) (alimentazione per azionamenti
industriali, trazione, sistemi di compensazione
per la qualità dellenergia, etc)
