UNIVERSITY OF MILAN – UNIVERSITÀ DEGLI STUDI DI MILANO
Short description of the University with particular reference to the thematic areas promoted by
“Science without Border”
“BUILDING THE FUTURE IS OUR TRADITION”
The University of Milan is a research-intensive university, offering high quality teaching at all levels
in a broad spectrum of
fields. Over the years, it has
succeeded in maintaining a
skillful blend of tradition and
innovation, adjusting to the
requirements of a fastgrowing society without
putting aside its distinctive
traits.
The University of Milan is
the top Italian university in
most international rankings
and is the only Italian university among the 21 prestigious institutions that belong to the League of
European Research Universities (LERU).
The University’s interdisciplinary vocation and the connections between a wide range of fields
create a highly stimulating environment for study and work in its 31 Departments, 134 study
programmes, 31 doctoral programmes and several vocationally-oriented courses.
STUDYING IN MILAN, THE ITALIAN HEART OF INNOVATION.
The University of Milan – that counts almost 63,000 students regularly enrolled and is therefore the
largest in Lombardy – is an important point of cultural, artistic and scientific reference for the city:
every year it plays host, amongst other things, to more than 300 events that are attended by tens of
thousands of people.
Studying at the University of Milan and living in this city is an exciting experience.

The University of Milan in the major international rankings
Milan is known throughout the world for fashion, design, publishing, theatre, music, sports, food
and its international trade fairs, like the forthcoming Expo 2015. Located in the north of Italy, the
city is just a few hours away from Venice, Florence, the most famous Italian lakes, the Alps, the
Ligurian Sea and all the major European cities.
One of the top international institutions in terms of
scientific productivity, the University’s wide range
of educational and research competencies and its
relationships with the business world also make it
an important resource for its socio-economic
context.
Milan is, in fact, the capital of Lombardy, one of
the most dynamic and “international” areas in the
European Union; it is also the leading city in Italy
for investments in technological research and
innovation.
The system in which the University of Milan operates has no equal in terms of the level and
importance of its scientific initiatives; it comprises a further 11 universities and a large number of
research institutes, many of them of international standing and reputation.
