Master’s Degree in Georesources and Geoenergy Engineering

The master's degree in Georesources and Geoenergy Engineering trains engineers who deal with subsurface resources and energy, in a context marked by the transition to lower-emission sources. The programme integrates themes of decarbonisation, sustainability, extraction and energy conversion technologies, and subsurface energy management, which includes, among other things, the storage and use of geothermal and geological resources. Georesources and geoenergy concern materials and energy sources found in the subsurface, from mineral resources to geothermal energy, up to CO2 storage. The course integrates geological and engineering skills to assess, exploit and manage these resources in a way consistent with the themes of decarbonisation and sustainability.

Teaching combines lectures, exercises with specialised software, analysis of real data, laboratories, company internships, technical visits and final projects with industrial partners. The course takes place in person in Turin, at the Department of Environment, Land and Infrastructure Engineering, and is in English. The page does not give the duration, which for a master's degree is normally two years, nor the credits, the cost, the calendar, the start dates and the enrolment deadlines, nor the list of courses. Teaching is in English and takes place in person in Turin, at the Department of Environment, Land and Infrastructure Engineering. The international approach is consistent with a sector in which companies operate in many countries, and requires a good knowledge of the language, the level of which is not stated by the page.

The aim is to prepare professionals for the energy sector, consulting, research bodies and for engineering and research roles. The course is aimed at bachelor's graduates in engineering or related disciplines, with verification of requirements. It suits those who wish to work in the management of geological resources and in the energy transition, with an international preparation thanks to teaching in English. The Polytechnic University of Turin is ranked 241st in the 2025 QS world rankings, 103rd in the European ones and 12th in those of Southern Europe. Internships at companies in the sector and projects with industrial partners offer concrete contact with companies and ease entry into the profession. The cost is not published. Since it is a master's degree, the duration is normally two years, but the page does not give it. The cost, deadlines and number of places are not stated either. For this reason it is advisable to consult the official call for applications, in particular for the degree classes accepted and for how the possession of the requirements is verified.
