Graduation Day at Dallara Academy: MUNER celebrates 10 new graduates in Advanced Automotive Engineering

On 11 February 2026, MUNER – Motorvehicle University of Emilia-Romagna held a new graduation session at the Dallara Academy in Varano de’ Melegari, one of the most symbolic locations for the MUNER community and a long-standing venue for its graduation ceremonies.

The session involved 10 students from the Master’s Degree in Advanced Automotive Engineering, who presented their final thesis projects in front of the Graduation Committee composed of Alessandro Pirondi, Michele Pinelli, Silvio Sorrentino, Saverio Giulio Barbieri, and chaired by Prof. Matteo Giacopini. The discussions highlighted the strong integration between academic education and industrial applications that characterizes MUNER’s educational model.

During the proclamation ceremony, Ing. Giampaolo Dallara addressed the graduates with an inspiring message, underlining how Italian universities stand out for their ability to educate highly versatile engineers, thanks to the strong foundations provided during their academic education. His words resonated deeply with the values at the core of MUNER’s mission.

The Master’s Degree in Advanced Automotive Engineering is one of MUNER’s flagship programs and is designed to train engineers capable of operating in highly technological, complex, and international environments. The program covers a wide range of topics, from vehicle design and performance to materials and systems engineering. Among its curricula, Racing Car Design represents a unique educational experience, with the entire second year taking place at the Dallara Academy, offering students direct exposure to an industrial context of excellence in motorsport engineering.

Celebrating this important milestone at Dallara Academy once again reflects MUNER’s educational vision: a model where academic excellence, close collaboration with industry, and the values of the Motor Valley come together to shape the engineers of tomorrow.
