Master in Agricultural and Environmental Science at University of Tuscia

Detailed entry requirements

Agricultural and Environmental Sciences at the University of Tuscia is the LM-69 master’s course. Eligibility combines a suitable first-cycle qualification, subject credits and a positive oral assessment. Choose the curriculum before preparing language evidence: the official brochure distinguishes an Italian curriculum from an English one. Reviewed 6 October 2026. [1][2][3][4]

Degree and subject-credit requirements

A bachelor’s degree or a foreign qualification recognised as equivalent is required. The course page particularly identifies agricultural and forestry graduates in class L-25 or former class 20, while allowing other backgrounds that satisfy the curricular requirements. Possessing a degree alone does not replace the credit check. [1][2]

The course page requires at least 24 CFU, divided into two groups. The first 12 must come from FIS/01-07, MAT/01-09, CHIM/01-11, INF/01, SECS-S/01, 02, 03 or 06, or BIO/01, 02, 03, 04, 07 or 10. The other 12 must come from AGR/01-20, IUS/03, or SECS-P/01, 02 or 08. [1]

The regulation amended in 2022 also sets a 12+12 division, but its second-group list omits AGR/05, AGR/06 and AGR/14. If eligibility depends on one of those sectors, we confirm with the Course Council which list applies to your file rather than assuming that the broader webpage list settles the discrepancy. We prepare your transcript, credit values and subject-sector details for that review. [1][2]

Oral assessment and missing credits

Admission is non-programmed under the regulation, with an oral check of academic preparation. The course page describes a faculty commission assessing knowledge and skills acquired in the first-cycle degree. A favourable majority decision is required for enrolment; a tutor is assigned to support the first year. [1][2]

The department guidance requires curricular deficits to be addressed before the preparation check, through the applicable single-course examinations. Some enrolment dates shown in that standing page refer to 2020, so they do not apply to a current intake. The current interview booking and enrolment notices set the dates, and we follow them. [1]

Curriculum-specific language requirements

The official brochure identifies Scienze Agrarie as Italian-taught and Organic Agriculture in the Mediterranean Area as entirely English-taught. It states that the English curriculum begins in September 2025. That is the curriculum’s starting date, not proof of the brochure’s publication date or a current application deadline. [3]

The programme assessment checks a previously passed English examination or ability to understand international scientific literature. For the English-taught curriculum, Tuscia’s international FAQ separately requires English at B2, evidenced by an accepted certificate such as IELTS, TOEFL, Trinity or Cambridge First, or an English-medium certificate for previous university study. The reviewed sources do not specify a universal IELTS band. [1][2][4]

For Italian-taught study, Tuscia requires Italian proficiency and describes an assessment with exemptions including an Italian school diploma or qualifying CLIQ B2-or-higher certification. The English curriculum does not require the Italian-language test under the international FAQ. [4]

Foreign qualifications and enrolment documents

Applicants needing a visa and residing abroad obtain university admission before Universitaly pre-enrolment. Tuscia requires a fresh application for the current academic year even after admission in an earlier year. Its FAQ allows recognition documents to remain pending during conditional pre-enrolment, but the applicable Declaration of Value, CIMEA documentation, Diploma Supplement or accepted correspondence evidence must be provided to complete enrolment. We supply any requested integrations through Universitaly: the FAQ says email submissions will not be considered. [4]

Source versions and applicant checklist

The programme webpage supplies standing admission guidance; the detailed regulation was amended on 6 October 2022. The brochure is undated internally. These versions are identified separately from this October 2026 review. No verified universal minimum degree mark or mandatory GRE score appears in these reviewed admission provisions. [1][2][3]

Before applying, we identify the curriculum with you, map both 12-CFU groups, confirm any subject-sector discrepancy, prepare your degree and transcript evidence, and book the oral assessment. You obtain language evidence for the chosen curriculum, and we handle any required foreign-qualification review. [1][2][4]

What degree do I need?

A bachelor’s degree or a foreign qualification recognised as equivalent, with the required subject credits. The course particularly identifies L-25 or former class 20 graduates. [1][2]

How many prior subject credits are required?

At least 24 CFU: 12 in the listed basic-science sectors and 12 in the listed agricultural, legal or economic sectors. If you rely on AGR/05, AGR/06 or AGR/14, we confirm which list applies, because the webpage and 2022 regulation differ. [1][2]

Is an admission interview required?

Yes. A faculty commission assesses first-cycle knowledge through an oral examination. A positive decision is required to enrol. [1][2]

Is the entire degree taught in English?

The brochure separates Italian-taught Scienze Agrarie from English-taught Organic Agriculture in the Mediterranean Area. Select the curriculum before preparing language evidence. [3]

Can an English-medium degree satisfy English evidence?

Tuscia’s international FAQ accepts a certificate confirming English as the medium of previous university study for English-taught courses, alongside accepted language certificates at B2. [4]

Can missing subject credits be left until after enrolment?

The department guidance requires curricular deficits to be addressed before the preparation assessment through the applicable single-course examinations. We confirm the credit mapping and current procedure for your file. [1][2]

Can someone handle my whole application to Agricultural and Environmental Sciences at Tuscia?

Yes. ApplyAZ, an Italy-based consultancy that works only with public universities, checks your transcript against Tuscia's rules for this programme, handles the application and Universitaly pre-enrolment, helps you file the DiSCo Lazio scholarship application at the right time and in the right format, and prepares your visa file, for eligible students. Start by checking your eligibility.

I'm applying from India. What is the route into Agricultural and Environmental Sciences?

You need a bachelor's degree with at least 24 credits in two groups of 12: basic sciences such as physics, maths, chemistry, statistics or biology, and agricultural, legal or economic subjects. [1] A B.Sc. in Agriculture is closest to the L-25 background the course names, but we still map each course. [1][2] You then pass an oral assessment, and the English curriculum asks for B2 English. [2][4] Indian students apply for the type D study visa at the Italian embassy or consulate that covers their state, such as New Delhi, Mumbai or Bengaluru.

Is the route different from Pakistan, Bangladesh or Sri Lanka?

No. The academic rules for Agricultural and Environmental Sciences are the same whatever your nationality. Applicants from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka follow the same steps as India: programme application, oral assessment, university admission and Universitaly pre-enrolment, then a type D study visa from the Italian mission for their country of residence. Read our guide for students in Dhaka.

I live in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman or Bahrain. Where do I apply for the visa?

At the Italian embassy or consulate responsible for the country where you legally live, after Universitaly pre-enrolment. The academic rules for Agricultural and Environmental Sciences are the same whatever your nationality, and Gulf residents follow the same steps: programme application, oral assessment, university admission and Universitaly pre-enrolment.

I studied or live in London, New York, Toronto, Vancouver, Singapore or Kuala Lumpur. What is the route?

The academic rules for Agricultural and Environmental Sciences are the same whatever your nationality, and your degree is assessed like any other foreign qualification. Non-EU applicants who live abroad follow the same route: programme application, oral assessment, university admission and Universitaly pre-enrolment, then a type D study visa from the Italian mission for where they live.
