– sustainable energy security, ready for the future –
Rome 20-22 November, 2025
of the Sapienza University of Rome
(Rome, Via Eudossiana, 18)
The 9th AIEE Energy Symposium on Energy Security will be organized this year with the scientific contribution of a prestigious partner that is the The Department of Astronautical, Electrical and Energy Engineering of the Sapienza University of Rome
We therefore present you the Venue, the historical building of the University, in the heart of Rome, near the San Pietro in Vincoli Church at 300 m from the Colosseum and five minutes’ walk from the Imperial Fora.
History
Sapienza is one of the oldest Italian universities, founded in 1303 by Pope Boniface VIII. In the seven centuries since its foundation, it has been at the centre of the history of Rome and of the entire country; first as a university linked to the Popes, then as an autonomous Studium Urbis, gradually extending its academic prestige to new disciplines, both scientific and humanistic.
The first school for professional training in Engineering in Rome was founded in 1817 by Pope Pius VII for the preparation of specialized technicians for the Department of Water and Roads. In 1826 Pope Leo XII established that technical studies would also be part of the Archiginnasio della Sapienza.
In 1873 was founded the “School of Application for Engineers in Rome” which was separate from the University of Rome. Only in 1935 the school was transformed into the Faculty of Engineering and became part of the University of Rome. In 1960 a provision was issued to reorganize the engineering studies which led to the establishment of nine courses in civil engineering (on construction, hydraulics, transport), mechanics, electrical engineering, chemistry, naval and mechanical engineering, aeronautics, mining, electronics and nuclear engineering. In November 2010, the Sapienza University was reorganized and the Faculty of Engineering was divided into the Faculty of Civil and Industrial Engineering and the Faculty of Information Engineering, Computer Science and Statistics.
