Curriculum

The master is aimed at professionals who wish to lead the adoption of artificial intelligence in organisations. The programme develops in four phases: understanding the foundations of AI, practical application in business, change management and analysis of the future implications of artificial intelligence. The aim is to train people able to govern AI as a strategic lever of transformation, with integrated managerial, digital and ethical skills, and therefore able to assess the opportunities, risks and organisational impacts of new technologies. The structure in four phases takes participants from a common base of knowledge about artificial intelligence to a reflection on long-term implications, passing through application in business processes and the management of organisational change, which is often the most critical aspect in introducing new technologies in companies.

The master is delivered in part-time remote mode, with some in-person activities in Milan, and lasts 16 months; elsewhere on the page a duration of 15 months is mentioned, so the figure should be checked. Teaching includes intensive bootcamps, hackathons, applied projects, the AI Innovation Forum and structured networking sessions. Access requires a bachelor's degree, or equivalent foreign qualifications under Italian regulations, and previous organisational experience is expected. The credits, the specific modules, the number of places, the start dates and deadlines are not stated, and the cost is not made public. The page reports only one review, with the maximum rating. The intensive bootcamps and hackathons offer moments of practical work and peer exchange, the applied projects make it possible to tackle real problems of the participants' organisations and the AI Innovation Forum creates opportunities for dialogue with experts, companies and industry speakers, in addition to the structured networking activities planned in the programme.

The aim is to prepare professionals and graduates interested in AI leadership and management. Related professions include the AI engineer, the AI specialist and expert, the business analyst, the innovation manager, the corporate strategy analyst and the global business specialist. The part-time remote format makes it possible to combine work and study, and the attention to ethical and organisational dimensions makes the programme suited to those in managerial roles who want to understand how to integrate AI into decision-making and production processes. The remote mode, with in-person sessions in Milan, is designed to reduce time and travel constraints, and the organisational experience required helps create a classroom in which participants can exchange experiences and viewpoints, bringing to the discussion concrete cases of the adoption of artificial intelligence in industrial, service and public settings.
