The graduate of the second-cycle degree in Computer Systems Engineering, in the first years after graduation, can perform the various functions indicated above also in a coordinating role. These functions may be performed in manufacturing or service enterprises, in public administrations, as self-employed professionals or in self-started entrepreneurial activities.

The employment outcomes of the degree are very good. In fact, ISTAT employment rates one year after graduation are consistently above 90%, with values more often close to or equal to 100%. The degree course pays special attention to this statistic, carrying out continuous monitoring.

 

Communication skills

Communication skills are acquired or honed through the development of dissertations or projects associated with teaching, mainly carried out in groups and often consisting of doctoral students and research fellows, which include a continuous discussion and presentation phase of the work carried out or to be carried out. In addition, the final examination, focused on the development of advanced and innovative topics and developed both in companies and research laboratories, strengthens the ability to communicate ideas and solutions in an environment of specialists and researchers in the field.
The assessment of communicative ability takes place at different levels within the training activities, based on the oral and written exams, the assessments on term papers and projects that contribute to the final assessments of the associated course units, and from the assessments inherent to the final examination, including the public discussion of the dissertation in the degree examination.
