Italy

Milan is Northern Italy's major urban center. The city's position at the intersection of several major transportation routes helped establish its importance as a regional economic center, and today's Milan is a stylish and elegant 21st century cultural mecca. Milan attracts the largest number of international students of any Italian city, reflecting its local charms and international flavor.

At IULM, Libera Università di Lingue e Comunicazione, students have access to an innovative learning environment focusing on languages, communication and technology, equipped with the latest technology and a large library featuring the most updated systems. The main building houses a reception desk, students’ administrative offices, the Dean’s office, the library and classrooms. New buildings have recently been added: a canteen catering to about 400 people, a building destined to become the research institute, an auditorium and a hall of residence.
