The following requirements must be met for admission to the course.
Qualification and curricular requirements
A bachelor's degree or equivalent university qualification of at least three years' duration, also obtained abroad if recognised as suitable.
The Italian degree is considered eligible if it belongs to one of the degree classes L-8, L-9, L-31.
If the bachelor's degree belongs to classes other than those indicated, the degree pathway must include:

A general description of these contents is available in the teaching regulations (in Italian only).
Language skills
Knowledge of English at least at level B2 of the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) is required. You can prove it in one of the following ways
- by having passed a university exam in English B2 as part of your degree programme;
- by providing a language certificate recognised by UniTrento.
If you don’t have any of these certifications, you can take and pass an English test at the University Language Centre before enrolment.
- Application for admission: 26 May to 20 November 2025
- Deadline for enrollment and meeting all the requirements: 19 December 2025.
To enroll, you must submit the online “Request for admission” application by the deadline indicated even if you are a student, graduate or undergraduate in a UniTrento degree program and already meet the admission requirements.
If you have not done your undergraduate degree in UniTrento, in the online application you must attach a self-declaration of the exams you have taken indicating for each exam:
- the Scientific Disciplinary Sector (SSD)
- the credits (CFU, undergraduate credits)
- the date on which you took it
- the final grade of the exam
- the syllabus.
You can apply even if you have not yet obtained your bachelor's degree and have not completed your exams.
The outcome of the evaluation will be communicated to you by Student Support Service via email.
The committee reserves the right to ask for an interview to further investigate the candidates' preparation.
In case you are asked for the interview, a professor will send you an e-mail containing a proposal for dates.
If you are missing certain curricular requirements, you can enroll in Single Courses for Master's Degrees and take the corresponding exams by the registration deadline.
If you don't meet the language proficiency requirement, you can make it up by passing an English language test at the Centro Linguistico di Ateneo (CLA).
The written tests will be held in person in Trento at the CLA, while the speaking part will be online.
Once you have achieved the language requirement, write an email to the Student support service in order to proceed with the enrolment.
