2021/2022 Funded Eni-MEDEA Master in Energy and Environmental Management and Economics Scholarships in Italy.

 

Launched in 1957 to educate professionals who would go on to join Eni, the MEDEA Master’s was the first high-level, post-graduate training course of its kind in Italy and today has become a reference point for the energy sector.
