Internationalization Solidarity (CIS)
(CHEI)
The Center for Higher Education Internationalization promotes and conducts research, training, and policy analysis to
strengthen the international dimensions of higher education.
The themes CHEI covers:
●●Emerging trends in internationalization: policies, strategy,
mobility, recruitment, internationalization of the curriculum
●●Rationales for internationalization: economic drivers, political factors, social/cultural motives, educational rationales
●●International education and institutional development:
university internationalization strategy development; using
research to develop policy on international education;
incorporating at home and abroad dimensions into institutional strategy; using data to shape institutional strategy
●●Internationalization of Italian Universities in the European
and global context: creating a forum for dialogue for Italian
institutions.
34
The Center for International Solidarity was created in 2006 as
a center for the coordination of all the international cooperation projects of the University. It operates all over the world
with a strong dedication to projects in Africa, Latin America,
and the Middle East. Although its areas of interest are many,
CIS focuses strongly on issues related to medical and educational fields, disability, women’s rights and charity work
programs.

Laurea Triennale
(B.Sc.)
Pre-University Education 13 Years
The higher education system in Italy is structured into four
different stages:
Undergraduate Degree/Bachelor of Science B.Sc. (Laurea Triennale o a Ciclo Unico)
Course duration: 3, 5 or 6 years
ECTS/Credit points: 180, 300 or 360
Aims to provide a solid foundation in the core subjects as well
as more specialized, professional training. Students holding
a 3-year undergraduate degree or Laurea a Ciclo Unico can
either enter the job market or continue their studies by applying
for a Master of Science or Specializing Master program.
Graduate Degree/Master of Science - M.Sc.
(Laurea Magistrale)
Course duration: 2 years
ECTS/Credit points: 120
Undertaken after the undergraduate degree and aims to
provide rigorous, advanced training in more highly specialized areas.
Specializing Master
(Master Universitario)
Course duration: 1 year
ECTS/Credit points: 60
A professionalizing program providing practical knowledge
and training through coursework and internships. These
masters programs within the Italian education system
do not generally allow access to a Ph.D. program upon
completion of the Master. Recognition of the Specializing
Master towards a Ph.D. program outside of Italy will depend
on local State regulations or individual doctoral programs.
Doctoral Program - Ph.D.
(Dottorato di Ricerca)
Course duration: 3 years
ECTS/Credit points: 180
Undertaken after the completion of a M.Sc. or an equivalent graduate degree. It aims to develop the professional
competence to carry out high level research in manufacturing and service companies, public bodies and universities.
