Telecommunications Engineering
The Master’s Degree in Telecommunications Engineering at Roma Tre University trains professionals to design, manage, and optimise advanced communication systems and networks. The course covers the entire information lifecycle—acquisition, transmission, processing, and security—across a wide range of formats and platforms. Students develop both technical and managerial capabilities, enabling them to lead innovation in telecommunications technologies, services, and infrastructures. Emphasis is placed on emerging technologies, secure communications, and the application of artificial intelligence in modern network systems.
The two-year programme includes foundational modules in signal processing, information theory, mobile radio systems, and network architecture. In the second year, students choose between two specialisations: Secure Telecommunications Systems or Microwave and Radiofrequency Engineering. These tracks provide advanced training in cybersecurity, antenna design, and wireless communications. Teaching combines traditional lectures with laboratory sessions, interdisciplinary seminars, and project work. Students must complete a professional internship and an original thesis based on applied or research activities, which may be carried out in collaboration with external organisations.
Graduates are qualified to work in a broad range of sectors, including telecommunications operators, RF and microwave system manufacturers, multimedia service providers, defence and security industries, and research centres. They may also pursue careers in system integration, regulation, or technological consultancy. The degree grants access to the national register of engineers in the Information Sector and prepares students for doctoral studies in telecommunications, electronics, or ICT. Graduates are expected to possess both specialist knowledge and the ability to adapt to new technologies in a global context.
