Master in Computer Science at University of Camerino

Detailed entry requirements

Camerino’s English-taught Computer Science master is in class LM-18 R. Its standing regulation, valid from 2025/26, gives specific computing and mathematics routes and explains how B2 language ability is verified. The separate 2026/27 international pre-admission instructions govern document submission and application timing. Reviewed 6 October 2026. [1][2][3][4]

First qualification and recognised curricular routes

Applicants require a university degree or three-year university diploma, or a foreign qualification recognised as suitable. Article 5 automatically recognises the adequacy of preparation from Italian L-31 Computing, L-8 Information Engineering and L-9 Industrial Engineering degrees. This recognition concerns the prescribed academic background, not every administrative or language requirement. [1]

The regulation also identifies a suitable Italian or foreign degree containing at least 30 CFU in computing, INF/01 or ING-INF/05 and their current INFO-01/A or IINF-05/A counterparts, plus at least 12 in MAT/01-09 mathematics. That group includes logic, algebra, geometry, complementary mathematics, analysis, probability/statistics, mathematical physics, numerical analysis and operations research. [1]

Other backgrounds and academic assessment

For qualifications outside the listed degree routes, a course-appointed commission reviews curricular suitability and personal preparation before enrolment, using the academic record, course programmes where needed and a preliminary interview. It may propose a specific individual study plan. [1]

The standing regulation does not establish an IELTS 6.5 threshold, a universal TOEFL 90 requirement, two recommendation letters or a fixed 20-minute coding interview. We prepare the academic and document evidence requested for your route, based on the course’s official requirements rather than generic descriptions. [1][2]

B2 language verification and progression

Article 5 requires verification of written and spoken ability in a European Union language other than Italian at B2, without making completion of that verification a condition preventing initial matriculation. For this English-taught course, its routes include English certification, at least 6 CFU of English-language learning in the bachelor’s degree, a recognised online language-learning platform test, or an equivalent assessment/interview by the appointed school commission. [1]

Students may matriculate before the specified commission assessment. If none of the accepted verification routes has been completed, however, they cannot sit examinations belonging to years after the first. This is a progression condition, so the language requirement still applies. [1]

For international preliminary applications, the 2026/27 instructions accept optional Cambridge, IELTS or TOEFL certificates, and explicitly say not to upload medium-of-instruction certificates. An optional external certificate at preliminary application is distinct from the degree’s B2 verification arrangements; an MOI letter is not accepted as pre-admission certificate evidence. [2][3]

International pre-admission documents

International applicants use the university’s online preliminary-evaluation application, with the country-specific document checklist and all mandatory fields and attachments completed. Missing mandatory documents lead to rejection. Pending final qualifications can be supported by provisional records, but final official documents are needed to complete enrolment. [2]

The preliminary application is only considered once it is complete. The university notes that a technical 2025/26 label in the system still referred to the 2026/27 preliminary application; we follow the current intake instructions. [2]

The preparatory guidance says the committee may consider a final score above 75%, relevance of the study path and, with high application volumes, additional conditions. It expressly permits lower-scoring candidates to apply, while warning that the result can affect evaluation. The 75% figure is therefore not a published absolute exclusion threshold for Computer Science. [4]

Current application status and final enrolment

The published 2026/27 non-EU preliminary deadline was 31 March 2026, and the current page says that round is closed for non-EU students. For EU and EU-equivalent non-visa candidates, the International Student Office handles any remaining pre-admission possibilities, and we check these for eligible students. No later general non-EU reopening is asserted here. [2]

After a positive academic evaluation, the Welcome Office supplies the next Universitaly and document instructions. Final enrolment still depends on the required official records. The FAQ identifies original qualification/translation, identification and qualification-recognition evidence, accepting the specified declaration-of-value or comparability/verification alternatives. We use the country-specific instructions to establish the documents required in your case. [2][3]

Source version and preparation checklist

The current standing Computer Science regulation was approved by the School Council on 6 October 2025 and is valid from 2025/26. It is used alongside the expressly dated 2026/27 international instructions, rather than presented as a new 2026/27 regulation. We prepare your file with your qualification, computing/mathematics transcript and syllabi, language-verification evidence, and the complete country-specific application documents. [1][2]

What degree do I need for the Computer Science master at Unicam?

A university degree or three-year diploma, or a suitable foreign qualification. Italian L-31, L-8 and L-9 degrees count automatically. Otherwise your degree needs at least 30 CFU in computing (INF/01 or ING-INF/05) and at least 12 CFU in mathematics (MAT/01-09). Other backgrounds go to a commission review. [1]

Is there an entrance test or interview?

Admission rests on an academic review. For degrees outside the listed routes, a course-appointed commission reviews your academic record and course programmes, holds a preliminary interview and may propose an individual study plan. Unicam's guidance says a final score above 75% can help, but it is not an absolute cut-off. [1][4]

What English level is needed? Do I need IELTS?

The degree requires English verified at B2. Accepted routes include an English certificate, at least 6 CFU of English in your bachelor's degree, a recognised online platform test or a commission assessment. Cambridge, IELTS or TOEFL certificates are optional at the preliminary application, and MOI certificates are not uploaded. [1][2]

When is the deadline for non-EU students?

For 2026/27, the non-EU preliminary deadline was 31 March 2026, and that round is now closed. The next call sets the dates for 2027/28. The preliminary application is only considered once it is complete. [2]

Can I apply before I graduate?

Yes. If your final qualification is still pending, provisional records can support the preliminary application. Final official documents, including your qualification with translation and recognition evidence such as a declaration of value or a comparability statement, are needed to complete enrolment. [2][3]

I have a BCA or a B.Tech. Can I apply?

Possibly. The rule looks at credits, not the degree title: at least 30 CFU in computing and 12 CFU in mathematics. A BCA or a computer science B.Tech is usually a fit for the computing block, and we check whether your transcript also shows the mathematics credits. Other backgrounds go to a commission review. [1]

Can I start the course before my B2 English is verified?

Yes. You can matriculate before the language verification is complete. However, until one of the accepted routes is done, you cannot sit examinations belonging to years after the first, so the B2 requirement still applies. [1]

Can someone handle my whole application to Computer Science at Unicam?

Yes. ApplyAZ, an Italy-based consultancy that works only with public universities, checks your transcript against Unicam's rules for this programme, handles the application and Universitaly pre-enrolment, helps you file the ERDIS Marche 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 Computer Science?

Indian graduates need a degree with at least 30 CFU in computing and 12 CFU in mathematics, or a commission review with an interview [1]. A BCA or a computer science B.Tech is usually closest to the computing rule, and we check the maths credits on your transcript [1]. English must be verified at B2 [1]. The steps are Unicam's online preliminary evaluation, a positive committee decision and Universitaly pre-enrolment [2]. 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 Computer Science are the same whatever your nationality. Applicants from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka follow the same steps as India: the online preliminary evaluation, a positive committee decision 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 Computer Science are the same whatever your nationality, and Gulf residents follow the same steps: the online preliminary evaluation, a positive committee decision 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 Computer Science 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: the online preliminary evaluation, a positive committee decision and Universitaly pre-enrolment, then a type D study visa from the Italian mission for where they live.
