Bachelor in Electronics and Cyber-Physical Systems Engineering

Bachelor in Electronics and Cyber-Physical Engineering

In our Bachelor in Electronics and Cyber-Physical Engineering, you'll combine knowledge in electronic Engineering with expertise in cyber-physical Systems.

The aim of this programme is to train developers and integrators of both hardware and software, who based on a strong formal background in mathematics, physics, statistics and computer science, combine the areas of electronic, automation and computer engineering to design, build and validate electronic, embedded and automation components and systems for a variety of applicaton fields , with particular emphasis on ICT and Industry 4.0.

This engineering profile is an evergreen in the job market, and our curriculum is tailored to equip you with the latest skills and competencies fostered by contemporary engineering methodologies.

Your journey begins with mastering the foundational "language" of engineering, encompassing mathematics, physics, and computer science. From there, you'll delve into core engineering principles, structures, mechanisms, automation and computer engineering.

Study Plan

Here you can find the structure of the whole study course with the allocation of lectures on years and semesters, as well as some general information.

Course contents: overview of the topics covered in the study course

Here you can find the short version of the syllabi of all lectures offered in the study course, with the topics covered in each course, giving you a general overview.

Detailed course description

The detailed information on the courses offered in each academic year, with the indication of the lecturer, educational objectives, teaching format, learning outcomes, assessment, evaluation criteria and reading list, can be found in the course descriptions that you can download from the page Course Offering.

Your Tutor

Each Bachelor student has an individual Tutor.

Tutors are researchers or professors of the Faculty that help you to get information and take decisions related to their study career. More details can be found under Tutoring.

Language requirements

The official teaching languages are German, Italian and English. The levels of the Common European Framework of Reference apply.

Your 1st language is the language in which you have the highest level of proficiency (B2 or C1).

Your 3rd language is instead the language in which you are weaker (or in which you are an absolute beginner).  

A B1 level in the 3rd language is the minimum requirement for taking curricular exams in that specific language.

Language levels at graduation:
To be admitted to the degree examination you must certify the following minimum levels in the three languages:    

  • 1st language: C1
  • 2nd language: C1
  • 3rd language: B2 

If you are not able to certify these levels you are not allowed to graduate. 
For more information on languages please contact our Language Centre.

Additional Learning Obligations (“Obblighi Formativi Aggiuntivi” - OFA)

Possible Additional Learning Obligations (“Obblighi Formativi Aggiuntivi” - OFA) in the mathematics or physics area are assigned as part of the admission procedure.

If you are assigned these obligations, you are invited to attend a catch-up course offered by the Faculty before the start of the 1st semester and pass the relevant test.

If you do not pass the test, you have to attend an individual study programme defined together with your tutor to fill in the gaps and you still have to complete the OFA by passing the test or alternatively the “Analisi Matematica I" or “Physik I” exam within the 1st study year.

If you do not complete the OFA within the 1st study year, you may enrol in the 2nd study year, but you are not allowed to take exams of the 2nd and 3rd study years.

Free Choice credit points

To achieve your "Free Choice" Credit Points, you can choose:

  • lectures of the Bachelor in IME foreseen for other curricula without approval of the Course Council;
  • lectures of Bachelor Degrees the Faculty of Engineering previously approved by the Course Council
  • other lectures previously approved by the Course Council

If you choose lectures of the Bachelor Degrees of the Faculty of Engineering:
well before the exam session, send an e-mail from your unibz account to the 
Faculty Secretariat indicating:

  • your name
  • your student ID
  • the lecture title
  • the lecture code

If your choice is approved by the Course Council the course will be added to your study plan and labeled "Free Choice".

If you choose other lectures:

well before the exam session, send an e-mail from your unibz account to the Faculty Secretariat  attaching the Course Presentation Form of the lecture and indicating:

  • your name
  • your student ID
  • the lecture title
  • the lecture code
  • the credit points assigned to the lecture
  • the name of lecturer
  • the Faculty, Degree Course and University offering the lecture

Before approving, the Course Council evaluates if the chosen lecture is consistent with the study path of your degree course. If your choice is approved, the course will be added to your study plan and labeled "Free Choice".

If the course is from another Faculty you have to arrange your attendance with the respective Faculty / Professor.
