your safetycomes first

Università Cattolicadel Sacro Cuore

"everything possible in person, everything necessary from remote"

Envisioning life after COVID-19 on-campus is the desire to see our University come alive again, to welcome smiling faces in lecture halls and our corridors, to wish you a smooth start to a new academic year.

In 2020 institutions across the globe, including Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, were compelled to remodel the educational environment. In a short time, COVID-19 radically changed the way students received their education and together with their professors they were forced to adapt to alternative learning methods. Despite the challenges, Università Cattolica’s response from our community was very positive and different learning methods paved the way for extensive study and new work opportunities. And we value this.

However, we foresee a return to campus in person, in full compliance with COVID-19 preventive and safety measures. Your safety comes first. We are optimistic about getting closer to university life, fostered by sharing ideas and experiences. We are excited to see the rush of students on their way to class or eagerly waving at friends passing by on campus.

With passion and perseverance, Università Cattolica is putting in an endless effort every day to inspire all its members into creating a safe, responsible and educational haven for welcoming our students on-campus.

We look forward to meeting you.

Milan is the campus that offers the highest number of English-taught programmes. Students may choose from a range of undergraduate and graduate degrees or Specialising Master programmes across eight Schools. Most graduate programmes offer students the opportunity to undertake an internship or a field project as part of their curriculum.

Piacenza campus boasts on-campus Agribusiness laboratories including the most recent, SensoryLab, a sensory analysis laboratory, useful for students to learn the main sensory evaluation techniques applied to different food products from coffee to wine, oil and chocolate. The idea is to taste food, not only with the taste buds but to involve all the senses, from sight to smell, from hearing to touch.

Università Cattolica, Rome campus is affiliated with the Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli hospital which opened in 1964. It is ranked the best hospital in Italy and in the top 50 worldwide based on the World’s Best Hospital 2021 Ranking by Newsweek.

Italian higher education system

step by step

Graduate Degree/Master of Science - MSc(Laurea Magistrale)Course duration: 2 yearsECTS/Credit points: 120Undertaken after the undergraduate degree and aimed at providing rigorous, advanced training in more highly special-ised areas. Enables students to apply for a PhD at any Italian or international university.

Specialising Master (Master Universitario)Course duration: 1 yearECTS/Credit points: 60A professionalising programme providing practical knowl-edge and training through coursework and internships. These Masters programmes within the Italian education system do not generally allow access to a PhD programme upon com-pletion of the Master. Recognition of the Specialising Master towards a PhD programme outside of Italy will depend on local state regulations or individual doctoral programmes. Univer-sità Cattolica’s English-taught 1-year specialising Master pro-grammes include consultancy work projects that may lead to internships/job opportunities.

Doctoral Programme - PhD (Dottorato di Ricerca)Course duration: 3 yearsECTS/Credit points: 180Undertaken after the completion of a Master of Science 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.What are the differences between 2-year MSc de-grees and 1-year Specialising Masters?

The 2-year MSc degree: ■ Is an academic degree of 120 ECTS ■ Requires a similar academic background for access ■ Provides advanced academic knowledge in highly specialised areas. Students will write a final dissertation

■ The degree enables students to apply for a PhD at any Italian or international university, as well as to internships/job opportunities

The 1-year Specialising Master Diploma: ■ Is a professionalising diploma of at least 60 ECTS ■ Welcomes students from different academic backgrounds ■ Focuses on specific topics and provides practical skills. There is dedicated time for an internship or project work and students will not write a final dissertation

■ The diploma does not give students direct access to a PhD but leads to internships/job opportunities

*There may be some variations based on the specific programme and/or the student’s academic system of origin. Please check the programme webpage or contact > international.inquiry@unicatt.it to have the most up-to-date programme details and specific entry requirements and deadlines before submitting your application. **Fees are based on the 2021/2022 academic year and may be subject to slight variations.

Tuition fee does not depend on students’ citizenships but on where they pay taxes. The yearly tuition fee is divided in five different instalments: the first instalment of €1,470 will be considered as a deposit to confirm the spot in the programme.

Language requirements*

English language proficiency (for English-taught programmes)For applicants whose first language is not English, they will need to either:

ρ Have successfully completed a degree programme taught in the English language or

ρ Have an IELTS Academic overall score of at least 6.0 to 6.5 or a TOEFL iBT overall score of at least 84 to 85. Università Cattolica’s TOEFL iBT institution code is 2605.

Italian language proficiency (for Italian-taught programmes)Non-native Italian speakers, or candidates that have not carried out their previous schooling in Italian, should have a minimum knowledge of Italian, which is a B2 in the European framework of measurement of language proficiency, corresponding to about 120 hours of language instruction.

Submitting proof of Italian proficiency together with the application is encouraged. However, if no evidence is submitted, an Italian Language Test will be administered before the beginning of the academic year. Candidates who do not meet the minimum pro-ficiency level will be required to take an Italian language course before the beginning of the first semester.

All programmes have only one intake per year: Fall 2022Due to the restrictive and lengthy nature of the student pre-registration process required by the Italian diplomatic representations, we strongly advise non-EU students to apply by the deadline 4 (End of April, 2022).
