Studying a Postgraduate course 

In the Italian Higher Education system there are two types of Postgraduate courses:

• 1st level Postgraduate courses, to which students with a Bachelor’s Degree can apply.
• 2nd level Postgraduate courses, to which only students with a Master’s Degree can apply.

Please note that in the Italian Higher Education system Postgraduate courses are known as “Master“, however, they are not equivalent to a Master’s Degree.
