Master in Ecological Transition and Environmental Regeneration for Sustainable Communities

The Second-Level Master in Ecological Transition and Environmental Regeneration for Sustainable Communities is offered by the University of Catania. It takes a multidisciplinary approach covering legal, technical, socio-political and communication aspects. It includes theoretical lectures, specialist seminars, internships, technical visits and project work, with compulsory attendance of 75%. The pathway is aimed at those who wish to deepen and update their skills, with a structure that links theoretical reflection to concrete applications in the relevant professional context.

The master lasts 12 months and is delivered in a blended format, online and with practical in-person activities in Rome. The cost is €11,000. Internships are included in the programme but not guaranteed.

The aim is to train managers specialised in environmental remediation and the management of polluted sites, for the complex processes of environmental regeneration and ecological transition. Career opportunities are environmental analyst, consultant, expert, manager, project manager, engineer and technician. Upon completion, those who successfully finish the pathway obtain the qualification provided and can use the skills acquired in their own professional field or in further study. Concrete prospects nevertheless depend on each participant's starting profile and experience. Those who work should carefully assess the commitment required, in terms of weekly hours and attendance, to understand whether the programme is compatible with other professional or personal commitments.
