Rome, 19 April 2023
With the opening of the application procedure, the second edition of the 2nd
level Master’s Degree course “Digitalisation of the electricity system for the energy transition” starts,
promoted by
Terna
in collaboration with
Universities of Cagliari, Palermo and Salerno
as part of
Tyrrhenian Lab
project, for which the company has planned an investment of €100 million from
2022 to 2026.
Considering the high number of applications received
over 170 in just two months
and the
successful participation in the first edition, Terna, in agreement with the three universities involved,
has decided to expand the number of places available. In f
act, there will be
, and no longer 15,
students
after the selection phase,
will take part in the course in each of the three universities.
Students with first a Master’s Degree course in a technical or scientific subject (physics, IT,
engineering,
mathematics or data science) can apply to the course
until
September
. Following
verification of admission requirements by the universities involved, Terna will proceed with
assessment of applications and selection of those who will take part in the secon
d of three editions
planned. The course will begin in November and last for 12 months.
The Master’s Degree course will consist of four modules for a
total of 60 training credits
, with
personalised pathways based on the previous academic experiences of participants, programming
workshops and practical activities in the field.
At the end of the course, which aims to produce new professionals who will have managerial,
engineering,
IT and statistical expertise, the selected students will be hired in Terna’s local branches
and can begin work
regulation systems; management of equipment in the field; Substa
tion Automation Systems (SASs);
and Substation IoT Systems.
The Tyrrhenian Lab, of which Francesco Del Pizzo, Terna’s Head of Grid Development and
Dispatching Strategies,
Scientific Coordinator, aims to create a distributed centre of scientific
excell
ence across the campuses in the three cities where the cables of the
Tyrrhenian Link
will land.
With a total of 950 km of connections and €3.7 billion in investments, Terna’s
submarine connection
linking Campania, Sicily and Sardinia will support the integ
ration of energy flows from renewable
sources.
The project will therefore have a
positive impact
in terms of boosting employment in and bringing
added value to these communities, further confirmation of the importance that Terna places on
southern Italy,
an area of immense potential for both the development of infrastructure and
particular
the development of skills.
