What's a Specialisation Programme?

Specialisation Programmes are open to master's graduates to provide them with knowledge and skills suitable to practise peculiar professional activities as well as with the relevant qualifications.
Such courses are only held for the performance of activities and fields for which a professional qualification is expressly provided for by Italian law.
To obtain the diploma, students have to pass the prescribed exams and acquire a number of ECTS proportional to the duration of the programme and established by the school’s regulations. Upon completion of the programme, students are issued a specialisation diploma. For information about the administrative procedures governing Postgraduate courses, please refer to the Regulations.

Do you hold an international academic qualification?

Documents to be sent to the Specialisation Schools Unit for enrolment in specialisation schools.

To enrol in non-medical specialisation schools, those holding a foreign academic qualification and successfully passing the admission test must scan the following documents into a single pdf file and email it to segr.specializzazioneniroma1.it before the deadline. Please state in the subject line: infostud ID number, name, surname and specialisation school code.

-valid ID card;

- Visa for study purposes "immatricolazione università" for the academic year 2022-2023 issued by the Italian embassy or consulate in the country of last residence, followed by a copy of the receipt for the application for the first residence permit for study purposes (only for non-EU citizens residing abroad and study visa applicants). The application for the first residence permit must be submitted to the post office within 8 days of arrival in Italy, by filling in the forms available at https://vistoperitalia.esteri.it/home/en;

-Residence permit (only for non-EU citizens regularly residing in Italy) and possible renewal request in case of expiring permit;

- University degree (must have been obtained after a total of at least 17 years of education, including at least five years at the university level), together with the exam transcript issued by the university, accompanied by a certified translation in Italian or English, and the CIMEA  Attestati di Comparabilità e di Verifica (https://cimea.diplo-me.eu/sapienza/#/auth/login). The CIMEA Attestati di Comparabilità e di Verifica must state that the university qualification obtained gives access to third-cycle university studies.

Instead of the Attestati di Comparabilità e di Verifica , it is possible to present the Dichiarazione di valore (DoV) issued by the Italian representation in the country to which the qualification refers, together with the exam certificate, which must always be legalised. The DoV must clearly state that the qualification obtained gives access to third-cycle university studies.

If the qualification is issued in English, a sworn translation into Italian will not be required, but the presentation of the CIMEA's Attestato di Comparabilità e di Verifica or the legalisation of the university qualification will still be compulsory. 

The Diploma Supplement, if complete with all the information necessary for the evaluation of your degree, may eventually replace the aforementioned certificates.

Make sure that the certificates, in addition to stating the number of years of schooling completed before enrolment, also certify the validity of your qualification for access to third-level university studies in the system of the country in which you obtained it.
