Complement your Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering with the expertise needed to design and manage the green transition.
The programme
A systemic approach to sustainability
Students enrolled in the Master’s Degree Programme in Electrical Engineering can include the Minor Green Technology Developer in their individual curriculum.
The Minor prepares professionals to design and manage transformations of matter and energy according to sustainability principles. It combines engineering expertise, an interdisciplinary perspective, digital tools and transferable skills to develop solutions based on resource efficiency, the circular economy, biodiversity protection and pollution reduction.
Learning takes place through interdisciplinary modules and project work, including group activities devoted to case studies and practical challenges.
Completion of the Minor is certified by an Open Badge issued by the University of Naples Federico II. When the programme is accompanied by an interdisciplinary Master’s thesis consistent with its profile, a specific mention is also included in the Diploma Supplement.

Integration into the Master’s degree
Requirements to be met
Up to 20 CFU / ECTS of the Minor may count as curricular credits within the minimum 120 CFU / ECTS required for the Master’s degree. At least 10 CFU / ECTS must instead be extra-curricular and therefore additional to the 120 credits required for the degree.
At least two thirds of the 30 CFU / ECTS must also belong to subject areas outside those characterizing the student’s Master’s degree.
The individual curriculum must be submitted to the relevant Teaching Coordination Committee and comply with both these criteria and the instructions in the Appendix to the guide.
