Unverified. Not yet verified. A person has not opened the source for this cycle. Read off the institution own programme page on 13 September 2026 by a single research pass. It has NOT been independently re-checked: the verification stage of that run was stopped before it reached this record, so the record renders as unverified rather than claiming a receipt it does not have. The English requirement is held at unverified unless a per programme source URL was found. Figures here are a starting point for a reader, not a checked claim. Open questions: 1) The institution publishes two different TOEFL minimums for this programme. The official call and the MoveIN 2026-2027 sheet both say internet based 72. The department page for the English curriculum says internet delivered 78 and paper delivered 547. IELTS 6 is consistent across all three. Ask the programme which TOEFL figure governs. 2) The English curriculum is described as delivered entirely in English, but the catalogue study plan tags three of its core modules as Italian: MATHEMATICAL METHODS FOR CHEMICAL ENGINEERING, CHEMICAL REACTORS and CHEMICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL PLANTS. The catalogue warns that 2026-2027 content is being updated, so these tags may be stale. Confirm before publishing the record as a fully English degree. 3) Whether the 300 euro Band A contribution is the total for the year or whether the regional tax of 140 euro and the stamp duty of 16 euro are added.

The 2026-2027 pre-selection for visa applicants ran from 22 December 2025 to 15 May 2026, so the next cycle probably opens in late 2026, but no date is published. 5) The start date of lessons for 2026-2027 is not published. The Sapienza academic calendar page currently carries only 2025-2026 dates, so intake months are left empty rather than guessed. 6) The application fee on this programme's own call is 10 euro, not the 30 euro figure carried in the institution wide brief. Both the call and the International Student Office page state 10 euro. Reconcile the brief. 7) Career outcomes are published only in Italian, including on the English language pages, so they are transcribed in Italian. A decision is needed on whether to translate them and who signs off on the translation. 8) The fee page consulted is headed academic year 2025-2026.

The university’s exact wording
“The official call for this programme lists the certificates under the heading "The certifications recognised by the Faculty, corresponding to CEFR Level B2, are as follows": Cambridge FCE (or higher); IELTS level 6 (or higher); TOEFL internet-based 72 (or higher), paper-based 513 (or higher), or computer-based 183 (or higher); Trinity ISE2 (or higher). The MoveIN academic requirements sheet for 2026-2027 repeats the same four and adds a footnote to IELTS: "Including IELTS Academic Home-Based Test". The call adds a second route: "Language proficiency may also be recognised if a B2-level language course is successfully completed as part of the first-cycle degree programme, or through attendance at advanced language courses offered by the Faculty, provided the relevant test is passed prior to enrolment." On the waiver, the MoveIN sheet states that the English language requirements "are waived for candidates holding: a Diploma of International Baccalaureate (IB); an English-taught diploma/degree issued by an accredited institution in the EU/EEA/Schengen or in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States; a General Certificate of Education (GCE)." Pakistan is not on that list, so an English medium Pakistani degree does not waive the requirement and a certificate is needed. Duolingo is not named anywhere. One conflict on the same domain: the department page for the English curriculum prints different TOEFL numbers, "ETS-TOEFL paper-delivered grade greater than or equal to 547 or internet-delivered grade greater than or equal to 78", against 72 internet based on the call and on the MoveIN sheet. IELTS 6 is consistent across all three sources.”

Entry requirements

What this call asks of you.

The admission model first, because it is the one that closes a degree for a year. Everything below it is quoted from the university's call for applications for this cycle, in its order.

  • How it admits

    Open access

    accesso libero

    The university's own wording
    “The Italian course page prints the field "Modalità di accesso: Verifica dei requisiti e della preparazione personale". The official call is headed "Admission procedure for the Master's degree programme with assessment of entry requirements and personal knowledge in Ingegneria Chimica". Neither document states a numero programmato, a number of places, or a ranking. Admission turns on meeting the published academic requirements and the personal knowledge bar, so it is not accesso programmato. The same institution page that describes enrolment under reserve limits that mechanism to "Restricted Access courses", which this is not.”
  • Entrance tests

    The university's own test

What the call asks for

  1. A three year bachelor's degree or other qualification obtained in Italy or abroad and recognised as eligible under current legislation

  2. The department states the degree should be a Bachelor Degree in Chemical Engineering, Petroleum Engineering or equivalent, eligible for the Italian laws

Before any of it counts

Start the legalisation chain first

A degree awarded outside Europe has to be attested and legalised before an Italian university reads it. That chain is decided by the country you apply from, and no office on it publishes a turnaround.

The degree

About this degree.

A two year master in chemical engineering at Sapienza, run in three curricula, one of which Sapienza describes as delivered entirely in English. It suits a chemical or petroleum engineering graduate who can show IELTS 6 and a bachelor average of 75 out of 100.

Sapienza runs this master in the Faculty of Civil and Industrial Engineering, in the Department of Ingegneria Chimica, Materiali, Ambiente. The degree class is LM-22. It lasts two years. Teaching is in person in Rome. The catalogue lists the language as Italian and English.

The university's full description

The degree is split into three curricula. The first is ingegneria chimica, which can lean towards process and design, towards biotechnology and food, or towards environment and safety. The second is ingegneria chimica dei materiali, which covers production processes and the choice and maintenance of materials. The third is Chemical Engineering for innovative processes and products. Sapienza writes that this third curriculum is "erogato interamente in lingua inglese", delivered entirely in English. It focuses on innovative processes and products, on micro scale processes, and on production with reduced environmental impact.

The published study plan for the English curriculum lists these core modules: MATHEMATICAL METHODS FOR CHEMICAL ENGINEERING, NON EQUILIBRIUM THERMODYNAMICS WITH AN APPLICATION TO THE MICROSCALE, CHEMICAL REACTORS, ECONOMICS OF TECHNOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT, THEORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF PROCESS DESIGN, COMPUTER AIDED PROCESS CONTROL and CHEMICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL PLANTS. Most core modules are 9 CFU. Students then take 24 CFU from a named optional group, which includes ADVANCED METALLIC MATERIALS, Green and Sustainable Hydrogen Production, PROCESS AND PRODUCT SAFETY IN THE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY, TRANSPORT PHENOMENA IN MULTIPHASE SYSTEMS, CORROSION ENGINEERING, NANOBIOTECHNOLOGY and GREEN CHEMISTRY AND PROCESS ENGINEERING. The second year carries a 1 CFU activity of seminars given by companies in the chemical, pharmaceutical and materials sectors, and a 20 CFU item that the catalogue prints without a name.

One caution on language. The catalogue study plan tags three core modules of the English curriculum as Italian: MATHEMATICAL METHODS FOR CHEMICAL ENGINEERING, CHEMICAL REACTORS and CHEMICAL AND BIOCHEMICAL PLANTS. This contradicts the statement that the curriculum is delivered entirely in English. The catalogue also carries a notice that the 2026-2027 content is being updated. Confirm the language of each module with the department before you enrol.

Places are not capped. The Italian course page records the access mode as "Verifica dei requisiti e della preparazione personale", a check of your requirements and your prior knowledge. You are measured against the published bar, not ranked against other applicants. You need a bachelor in chemical engineering, petroleum engineering or an equivalent recognised under Italian law. You need at least 99 CFU in total, made up of at least 42 CFU in basic science, at least 42 CFU in chemical engineering subjects and at least 15 CFU in industrial engineering. For a non EU bachelor, Sapienza counts 1 ECTS as 10 hours of lectures.

The fee to request the eligibility check is 10 euro, paid through Infostud. Tuition is not one figure. Students who declare income abroad pay a fixed yearly contribution set by their country band. Pakistan is in Band A, which is 300 euro for the year, paid as 90 euro, 105 euro and 105 euro. Students assessed on Italian income in this Faculty fall in the second contribution bracket, with a maximum of 2,924 euro.

The 2026-2027 round is closed to anyone who needs a student visa. The pre-selection for visa applicants expired on 15 May 2026 and Universitaly registration closed on 30 June 2026. Dates for 2027-2028 are not published yet.

Asked about this programme

The questions this one gets.

Can I use my English medium Pakistani degree instead of IELTS?

No. Sapienza waives the English requirement only for an International Baccalaureate diploma, a General Certificate of Education, or an English taught degree from an accredited institution in the EU, EEA, Schengen, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom or the United States. Pakistan is not on that list. You need one of the accepted certificates, for example IELTS 6.

Which English certificates does this programme accept?

Cambridge FCE or higher, IELTS 6 or higher, TOEFL internet based 72 or higher, and Trinity ISE2 or higher. IELTS Academic Home-Based Test counts. Duolingo is not accepted.

What mark do I need in my bachelor?

A weighted average of 22.50 out of 30, which Sapienza states elsewhere as 75 out of 100 or GPA 7.5 out of 10. If your average is lower, you can sit an assessment of personal knowledge in the core chemical engineering subjects, run by the CAD.

What will I pay in tuition?

Sapienza sets a fixed yearly contribution for students who declare income abroad, banded by country. Pakistan is in Band A, which is 300 euro for the year, paid as 90 euro, 105 euro and 105 euro. The page does not say whether the regional tax of 140 euro and the stamp duty of 16 euro are added on top.

Is the whole degree taught in English?

No. One of the three curricula, Chemical Engineering for innovative processes and products, is described by Sapienza as delivered entirely in English. The other two are Italian. The catalogue study plan currently tags three core modules of the English curriculum as Italian, and the catalogue says the 2026-2027 content is being updated, so confirm with the department.

Can I still apply for 2026-2027?

Not if you need a student visa. The pre-selection for visa applicants expired on 15 May 2026 and Universitaly registration closed on 30 June 2026. The later eligibility check dates of 15 October 2026, 17 November 2026 and 17 December 2026 are open only to applicants who do not need a visa.

How many places are there?

The programme does not publish a number of places. Admission is by verification of requirements and personal knowledge, not by a ranked competition for limited seats.

One programme, one university, once a year.

That is what Universitaly allows. Three questions tell you where you stand before you spend that choice: the degree level, what the visa wants in the bank, and how much calendar is left.
