2. General presentation of the study programme
The Master's Degree Course in Environmental and Land Planning Engineering trains engineers with a solid multidisciplinary background for the quantitative analysis of environmental phenomena and the design of interventions aimed at solving the challenges posed by man's interaction with the environment. The course adopts a framework of sustainable development, according to a One Health approach, theorised in the 1970s and later officially recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO). The curriculum allows students to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills by integrating multiple disciplinary areas. The course provides in-depth study of some theoretical tools (mathematics, statistics, computer science) and their application to specific cases of environmental problems, as well as skills in areas typical of engineering. These include planning actions for adaptation to climate change; designing solutions both for the mitigation of the effects of natural events and pollution and for environmental remediation; managing natural resources. The approach of the training course is therefore strongly interdisciplinary, this approach being indispensable while tackling and solving complex challenges.
Organisation of studies
During the first year of the degree course, the preparation acquired in the degree of origin is completed and strengthened. This objective is achieved by offering both in-depth teaching in some sectors of the basic sciences and theoretical-applicative teaching in the main disciplines characterising the Master's degree course, such as land protection, environmental engineering and planning use of resources. The courses of the second year allow for a further in-depth study of the typical topics of the disciplines characterising the Master's Degree course, enabling students to build up study paths in the main areas of professional expertise of reference: land protection and prevention of natural hazards, land planning and management of natural resources, environmental remediation technologies, environmental monitoring and diagnostics, support to strategic planning and management of civil and industrial infrastructures. The specialised preparation is completed through the integration of the curriculum with complementary disciplines, such as energy, chemical, automation and management engineering.
In order to facilitate the student in selecting courses in line with educational objectives, the course of study has prepared five reference study plans (Pre-approved Study Plans, PSPA) that can be selected directly by the student with a guarantee of approval without any further verification. Only one of them is offered exclusively in English (Environmental Engineering for Sustainability), while the other four also include courses taught in Italian (Land Protection and Prevention from Natural Risks, Natural Resources Planning and Management, Environmental Protection and Remediation Technologies, Environmental Monitoring and Diagnostics). It is possible for students to make modifications to these PSPAs in order to respond more effectively to individual aptitudes and interests.
Elective courses available for the students
The free-choice subjects include all the subjects of the Degree and Master's Degree Courses in Environmental and Land Planning Engineering, as well as those of all the Degree and Master's Courses activated at the Engineering Schools of the Politecnico di Milano. To facilitate the student's choice, tables of recommended courses are available.
Courses from other Schools of the Politecnico di Milano and other Italian and European universities may also be included, subject to approval by the Course Council.
In order to meet the educational obligations in the area of elective courses, students may also include in their study plan courses with a number of credits other than those indicated in the PSPA tables, provided that the total number of credits over the two years of the Master's degree is no less than 120 credits.

7. Contents of the study Program
7.1 Programme requirements
Master's graduates must acquire knowledge, skills and comprehension abilities that enable them to address and solve, also in an original and innovative way, the complex problems of Environmental and Land Planning Engineering, which by their nature are strongly interdisciplinary.
These objectives are achieved through a curriculum with a high profile content, which integrates theoretical tools with specialised applied disciplines, including through visits to plants and companies and the development of project and/or laboratory activities. This enables the student to develop the technical-scientific skills necessary for solving issues, including frontier issues, by applying state-of-the-art methodologies in an autonomous manner.
According to Law No. 33 of April 12, 2022, simultaneous enrollment in two programs is allowed. Enrollment in two programs is possible only if they are of different degree classes (classi di laurea) and differ in at least two-thirds of their educational activities regarding academic credits.Â
Consistent with what is defined by Law No. 33, at the student's instance, the maximum number of CFUs already taken in the other program and validatable is 40 CFUs for MSc programmes.
Please note that courses belonging to programs of a different level or type from the program you are enrolled in cannot be validated.
Full details on when to apply for validation and the administrative fees to be paid are available on the Polimi website:Â https://www.polimi.it/contemporanea-iscrizione

7.3.1 Professional profile in Green Technologies
The Politecnico di Milano wants to enhance skills related to 'green' technologies in university courses.
The aim is to create new professional profiles, which are Ambassadors in Green Technologies: Master's graduates with a high degree of systemic skills, an interdisciplinary vision and a focus on innovation for environmental sustainability and the decarbonisation of the economy. The profile of Ambassador in Green Technologies corresponds to a professional figure who possesses both advanced and specialised and transversal skills, complementary to the specialised ones, which enable him/her to broaden his/her knowledge and adopt a systemic approach to the design, management, innovation and study of the life cycle of 'green' technologies.
The training programme runs along the course of the LM and defines in 130 CFUs (of which at least 10 in supernumerary) the minimum number of credits required to complete the course of the chosen LM and, at the same time, to acquire the certificate of Ambassador in Green Technologies.
As part of the training course, the student must acquire at least 30 CFUs in training activities functional to the Ambassador in Green Technologies profile. In particular, the 30 CFU must be acquired by choosing:
- at least 8 actual CFUs among the subjects in Table A,
- at least 20 CFU (of which at least 10 CFU in supernumerary) among the subjects in Table B.
To obtain recognition of a course for the Ambassador qualification, at least one of the following conditions must be met:
- The course selected from Table A or B must be listed in the Manifesto of the Academic Year of application.
- The course selected from Table A or B must be present in the tables for the same Academic Year of attendance (i.e., in the study plan for the course). However, it is not necessary for the course to be taken in that Academic Year.
The certificate of Ambassador in Green Technologies will be stated in the Student Diploma Supplement and a specific electronic badge will be issued by the University.
Failure to take the 10 CFUs in additional courses and obtain at least 30 CFUs in educational activities functional to the profile of Ambassador in Green Technologies will not preclude the student from obtaining the Master's degree.

Politecnico di Milano has established knowledge of English as a prerequisite for admission to all degree courses. The level required and the methods for ascertaining knowledge of English vary according to the course of study.
Pursuant to Ministerial Decree 270/04, the Polytechnic assumes English as the language of the European Union, which must be known in addition to Italian.
Starting from the 2014/2015 academic year, all students, in order to be admitted to the Master's degree, must have obtained a certification attesting their knowledge of English according to the parameters indicated in the relevant notices prepared by the Student Services Area of the Politecnico di Milano.
For the complete legislation, please refer to the following link:
https://www.polimi.it/studenti-iscritti/requisiti-lingue-inglese-e-italiano7.5 Degree examination
The final examination consists in the presentation and discussion, by the undergraduate student, of a thesis, presented in the form of a written dissertation, which may be either project-related or scientific (theoretical or applied research), developed under the guidance of a Supervisor, who may possibly be assisted by a Co-Advisor. If the Advisor is external to the University, the presence of a Co-Advisor who is a Politecnico professor is required. There are two types of theses, with and without a Rapporteur, depending on the level of originality of the scientific, design or technological content and the complexity of the theme addressed. In the case of theses with a apporteur, the thesis is subject to the judgement of a Rapporteur who is an expert in the subject dealt with and who certifies its originality and validity.
The work done and the discussion are aimed at assessing the full scientific and technical maturity of the graduate student. The thesis is normally written in Italian or English. Upon motivated request of the graduating student, a thesis written in other languages may also be accepted, subject to authorisation by the Head of Degrees but with presentation and discussion in Italian or English.
On the website of the School of Civil, Environmental and Land Planning Engineering (ICAT), the Regulations for Master's Degree Examinations are available, including any supplementary Regulations of the Study Courses.
For the final examination, the ICAT School nominates Single Commissions (CU) and Operational Commissions (CO) as described for in the Degree Final Examination Regulations.
Regardless of the type of thesis, the degree grade, awarded by the Operating Committee, is expressed in 110-th. This grade is the CFU- weghted average of the exams grades (discounting additional credits and honours grades), and of the increment assigned by the Operational Committee, expressed as a fraction of 110 and up to two decimal figures. This sum shall be rounded to the nearest whole number (0.50 is rounded to 1.00) and limited to 110. The Operating Committee may also award honours. The mark awarded in the degree examination is obtained as the sum of two contributions: that proposed by the Advisor, and by the Rapporteur if any, and that of the Operating Committee.

11. International context
The Master's Degree Course in Environmental and Land Planning Engineering internationally represents an experience of excellence that integrates, in a unified profile, traditional basic engineering skills with multidisciplinary competences in the field of safeguarding, protecting and restoring the quality of the environment.
Over the years, the course of study has identified both European and non-European partner universities with a similar profile in terms of offer and quality, with which teaching exchange programmes have been set up.
The Master's Degree Course in Environmental and Land Planning Engineering is also the promoter of an initiative called 'Planet 3000', which aims to improve information in the various fields of environmental and land use disciplines and highlight their role by hosting international speakers. This translates into the organisation of conferences and debates on topical issues such as climate change, nuclear energy, waste incineration, the construction of major roads, the Copenhagen conference and the future of climate policy, and the spread of epidemics.
12. Internationalization
The Master’s Degree Course in Environmental and Land Planning Engineering actively participates in general and special projects of the University.
