Computer Science (Classe L-31)-Enrolled from Academic Year 2018/19
The goals of the degree course in Computer Science are: on the one hand to provide a solid basic and methodological knowledge of the main sectors of computer science and mathematics and on the other to provide a good command of the methodologies and technologies of Computer Science, offering adequate background to learn and know the different application areas of the discipline and to be able to assimilate, understand and evaluate the impact of the constant scientific and technological progress in the discipline. The degree program provides a broad common basis of activities, all aimed at preserving the homogeneity and cultural coherence expected of a Computer Science graduate. It is also given to the student a certain amount of freedom in the choice of a part of the courses in order to further investigate some topics of their own interest among those proposed by the course of study. For the realization of all the training objectives set out above, frontal lessons, practical exercises, labs and IT tools to support teaching are provided.
The type of role that the degree course in Computer Science intends to train with a view to immediate placement is that of a graduate capable of collaborating with technical, operational and professional tasks in consultancy, analysis, design , management, maintenance, marketing of small and medium-sized IT systems. Graduates will be able to operate in the most varied application fields for the design and management of IT and telematic systems and for the study of new systems and applications.
This activity can be carried out in all areas of the public and private sector that use information technology. Therefore the main market segments concerned are: banks, insurance companies, logistics and transport, healthcare, public administrations, telecommunications and media, service companies, industry. More precisely, the graduate's specific roles and jobs, according to the ISTAT code, are listed below.
3.1.2 IT, telematics and telecommunication technicians
3.1.2.1 Programmer technicians
3.1.2.2 Application expert technicians
3.1.2.3 Web technicians
3.1.2.4 Database manager technicians
3.1.2.5 Network and telematic system manager technicians
The course allows to qualify for the following regulated professions: junior information engineer; graduate industrial expert.

The education program can be enriched by educational activities abroad both to deepen some topics and as socialization experience in international environments. WIthin the Erasmus+ program study periods can be taken in over 50 universities in Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Lithuania, Norway, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Czech Republic, Romania, Spain, Switzerland, Hungary. Courses will be recognized in the personalized study plan. These periods abroad are typically 5-month long and include courses for about 30 CFU, in the area of information and communication technology and related applications. Recognition of these educational activities will be based on the Learning Agreement, to be defined in advance by the student and the Erasmus coordinator at the Computer Science Department before starting the period abroad: course in the learning agreement with passed exams will replace the educational activities of the study plan ("manifesto"), either by covering the same topics or complementing the acquired basic competences. The Erasmus Committee at the Computer Science Department will perform the recognition of CFU obtained abroad and the definition of the personalized study plan. Similarly, stages to prepare the final dissertation are allowed in the same foreign universities. Recognition will be performed by the Department Erasmus Committee.
La frequenza ai corsi e ai laboratori è fortemente consigliata.
