Universities and international networks
Established since the 11th century, the Italian higher education system is among the oldest in the Western world. Italian institutes are at the forefront of higher education.
Italy’s literary and linguistic tradition reveals a strong link with the universities, vesting them with a fundamental role in promoting our culture also through exchanges with other international universities and academic institutions.
The quality of teaching and the consolidated international relations between Italian and foreign institutions thus enhance the opportunities for students, outlining a multi-disciplinary educational path and favouring job placement.
