The bilingual Master's degree program aims to train professionals with in-depth interdisciplinary knowledge in:
-
Environmental management based on the principles of sustainable development.
-
Sustainable use of terrestrial resources, including energy supply sources.
-
Understanding and modeling the Earth, including human-induced disturbances, as a necessary foundation for guiding sustainable societal development.
These objectives align with the broader framework of ecological and energy transition, central to national and international attention and the UN 2030 Agenda.
In the 2025–2026 academic year, the second year of the bilingual Master's degree is still active, divided into three tracks.
Courses are delivered in both Italian and English within a curriculum structured into three tracks, each distinguished by specific objectives and corresponding to particular occupational fields.
