Master’s Degree in Mobility Engineering

The master's degree in Mobility Engineering, belonging to class LM-26, is dedicated to modern mobility and its challenges. The central themes are sustainable mobility, intelligent transport and innovation in transport systems, addressed with an integrated approach that considers vehicles, infrastructure, services and digital technologies together. The programme is part of the School of Industrial and Information Engineering of the Polytechnic University of Milan and aims to train engineers able to design and manage efficient, safe and low-impact mobility systems, at a time of major technological and regulatory change. Mobility is a rapidly changing sector, in which electrification, digitalisation, assisted driving and new service models intersect with requirements for safety, accessibility and emission reduction, and the programme prepares engineers able to assess these trends with a systemic, data-driven approach.

The programme lasts two years, is held in person at the Milano Bovisa campus and is delivered entirely in English. Teaching makes use of up-to-date materials, labs and interdisciplinary projects, which make it possible to work on concrete problems and to try out the tools and methods of mobility engineering. The programme is aimed in particular at bachelor's graduates interested in this area; admission is governed by specific criteria set out in the Teaching Regulations, and in general an engineering background is required. Dedicated information is available for students enrolled before the 2025/2026 academic year. The page does not state the credits, the list of courses, the internship or the thesis, while it notes the availability of scholarships. The Milano Bovisa campus hosts industrial and information engineering activities, and this encourages collaboration between different areas, from vehicles to information systems, which are essential for a programme dedicated to mobility, a field in which mechanical, electronic, computing and infrastructure skills must be combined.

The aim is to train professionals for companies, public bodies and organisations active in the field of smart cities. The reference professional figures include the transport engineer, the vehicle designer, the sustainable mobility consultant and the infrastructure designer. The page gives the programme a high score for graduates' job placement and notes the good international ranking of the Polytechnic University of Milan in the QS rankings. The qualification is therefore designed for those who wish to build a career in a sector that is strategic for the ecological transition and for transport innovation, including in an international context. The English language and the international approach make the programme suited to students from different backgrounds and useful for those who intend to work in global companies, in research organisations or in bodies dealing with transport policy, urban planning and the development of smart cities.
