Twin Track Master Programs – Double Master's degree

Twin Track is a program aimed at students enrolled in Master’s Degree Programs, offering cross-disciplinary and multidisciplinary educational opportunities.

The program allows students to earn two Master’s Degrees in two different Degree Programs over a total of three academic years (2 years for the first Degree Program + 1 year for the second selected one).

Within the Master’s Degree Program in Computer Engineering, the Twin Track program provides the opportunity to obtain a second Master’s Degree in Cybersecurity Engineering.

The study path is structured as follows:

  • 1st year: Computer Engineering
  • 2nd year: Computer Engineering + Thesis
  • 3rd year: Core courses of the Cybersecurity Engineering programme + Thesis
