Internal transfers - Bachelor's degree programmes
If you want to transfer to another degree programme and/or change system (ordinamento) you must meet certain requirements which may vary depending on the programme/system of origin and destination.   

If you are enrolled in a Bachelor’s degree programme at Politecnico and you want to transfer to another Bachelor's degree programme offered by our univeristy, you must meet the language requirements illustrated in table B attached to the Call for admissions to the Bachelor’s degree programmes of the Engineering Area a.y. 2018/2019. 

You are allowed to make an internal transfer from an Italian-taught degree programme to an English-taught programme, or viceversa:  
  • only one time during your studies;
  • if you did not take nor register any second-year exam (this rule applies also to continuing students  enrolled after their first year).
You cannot apply for an internal transfer during your first year. Moreover, you cannot withdraw from studies and enrol again in a new programme during the same academic year. 

Internal transfers between Bachelor’s degree programmes of the Engineering area (belonging to the system established by Ministerial Decree No.  270/04)
In order to transfer to another Bachelor’s degree programme of the Engineering area, you can apply for an internal transfer IF you meet the following academic requirements:
  • internal transfer to another Bachleor’s degree programme in Engineering (except for Industrial Production Engineering): this internal transfer is possible if you earn at least 28 credits in the following subjects within the September examination session: Mathematical Analysis I, Chemistry, Computer Science, Physics I and Geometry/Linear Algebra and Geometry. If you want to transfer to an English-taught degree programme, you must have the IELTS 5.0 certificate or another certificate accepted by Politecnico in substitution for IELTS.
  • internal transfer from any Engineering Bachelor’s degree programme to the programme in Industrial Production Engineering: you must take the admission test and be on the ranking list. Given the peculiarity of this course, if you make an internal transfer to this programme, you can go abroad to the partner University in the year which follows the one in which the transfer took place.
If you do not meet the above mentioned requirements, you will have to take the admission test and place yourself on the ranking list.

If you want to transfer to a programme with a different denomination, you are required to take the admission test and  place yourself on the ranking list.   

Internal transfers FROM Bachelor’s degree programmes of the Engineering area (any system) TO Bachelor’s degree programmes of the Architecture area (system D.M. 270/04) and vice versa

How to apply for an internal transferTo apply for an internal transfer follow this procedure and stick to the deadlines illustrated in the academic calendar.

  • if you earned at least 28 credits in the core subjects: Mathematical Analysis I (MAT/05), Chemistry ( CHIM/07), Computer Science (ING-INF/05) Physics I  (FIS/01), Linear Algebra and Geometry (MAT/03 – MAT/08) 
                 or
  • if you earned at least 40 credits in any subject (excluding the English language exam) in your Bachelor's degree programme of origin.
