Objectives and Career opportunities
The Master degree in Artificial Intelligence and Automation Engineering aims at providing high-level competences for the design, management, development and innovation in the fields of advanced intelligent systems, and of control systems and robotics. In particular, the program is focused on human-machine interaction in a wide sense: the graduate in Artificial Intelligence and Automation Engineering will be able to integrate methods and technologies from different fields such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, high performance processing of massive data collections, human-robot interfaces, control and automation systems.
The graduate in Artificial Intelligence and Automation Engineering can find jobs within industries, public companies, financial institutions and research centers, whose R&D divisions carry out activities in the fields of information systems incorporating intelligence, industrial automation and robotics. Furthermore, the MSc in Artificial Intelligence and Automation Engineering allows the students to access PhD programs in the areas of Information Engineering. More specifically, the professions which are more suitable to the specialist in artificial intelligence and automation engineering are those requiring advanced competences and skills on: industrial automation and process control; robotic systems; modelling and simulation of dynamical systems; data analysis; information systems including artificial intelligence; design of hardware/software integrated systems; man-machine interfaces exploiting natural language; human-robot interfaces; design and management of biological databases. The graduate in Computer and Automation Engineering can access the Italian professional society of engineers, within the section Information Engineering.
