The University of Milan[6] (Italian: Università degli Studi di Milano; Latin: Universitas Studiorum Mediolanensis), officially abbreviated as UNIMI, or colloquially referred to as La Statale ("the Statal [University]"), is a public research university in Milan, Italy. It is one of the largest universities in Europe, with about 60,000 students,[7] and a permanent teaching and research staff of about 2,000.[8]

The University of Milan has ten schools and offers 140 undergraduate and graduate degree programmes, 32 Doctoral Schools and 65+ Specialization Schools. The University's research and teaching activities have grown over the years and have received important international recognitions. The University is the only Italian member of the League of European Research Universities (LERU), a group of twenty-one research-intensive European universities.

The university has been frequented by many notable alumni, including Enrico Bombieri (Fields medalist, 1974),[9] Riccardo Giacconi (Nobel laureate in Physics, 2002),[10] Marco Bersanelli (Gruber Prize in Cosmology recipient, 2006), Patrizia A. Caraveo (Bruno Rossi Prize recipient, 2007, 2011, 2012), Alberto Mantovani (Robert Koch Prize recipient, 2016), Fabiola Gianotti (two times CERN General Director and Bruno Pontecorvo Prize recipient, 2019), as well as former Italian Prime Ministers Silvio Berlusconi and Bettino Craxi, and former Greek President Karolos Papoulias. The university has also been affiliated with notable faculty such as Giulio Natta (Nobel laureate in Chemistry, 1963),[11] Giuseppe Occhialini (Wolf Prize in Physics recipient, 1979), and Ugo Amaldi (Bruno Pontecorvo Prize recipient, 1995).

History

Early years

[edit]

The University of Milan was founded in 1924 from the merger of two institutions that boasted a great tradition of medical, scientific and humanistic studies: the Accademia Scientifico-Letteraria (Scientific-Literary Academy), active since 1861, and the Istituti Clinici di Perfezionamento (Clinical Specialisation Institutes), established in 1906. By 1928, the University already had the fourth-highest number of enrolled students in Italy, after the University of Naples, Sapienza University of Rome and the University of Padua. Many of its premises are located in Città Studi (City of Studies), the university district of Milan (where the Polytechnic University of Milan is also located) which was built from 1915 onwards. The scientific Schools and Departments of the University of Milan are mostly located in the Città Studi district, while the School of Humanities, School of Law, School of Political, Economic and Social Sciences, among others, are mostly located within the historic city centre.[12]

At the time of its foundation, there were four "traditional" Schools – Law, Humanities, Medicine, and Mathematical, Physical and Natural Sciences. Later, in the 1930s, the Schools of Veterinary Medicine and Agriculture were introduced, after the aggregation of the old Schools of Veterinary Medicine (1792) and Agriculture (1871).

At the end of the Second World War, the old Ospedale Maggiore di Milano (Major Hospital of Milan) building, originally named the Magna Domus Hospitalis (The Great House of the Hospital) and colloquially known as the Ca' Granda (The Great House), was assigned to the University of Milan. One of the first Italian examples of civil architecture and the main building of the Policlinico of Milan hospital complex established during the Renaissance period, it was designed by Filarete and commissioned in 1456 by Francesco I Sforza, the fourth Duke of Milan (the first Duke from the House of Sforza, which had succeeded the House of Visconti in 1450). The building had been seriously damaged by the bombings of 1943. In 1958, after a complex series of reconstruction and renovation works, it became home to the University Rector's Office, the administrative offices, and the Schools of Law and Humanities.

1960s reformation

[edit]

In the 1960s, due to the extension of compulsory school attendance and the subsequent liberalisation of access to higher education, the number of people entering Italian universities progressively increased and the University of Milan enrolled more than 60,000 students. The University broadened the range of its courses and at the same time increased its number of centres. Two new schools (the School of Pharmacy and the School of Social and Political Sciences) were established, and were based, respectively, in Città Studi and in Via Conservatorio, in the city centre of Milan. Città Studi was also the site of a new complex, intended entirely for the Biology departments, which was the work of architect Vico Magistretti.

There was also an increase in the number of agreements with the city's hospital facilities, where students from the School of Medicine receive their clinical training. In 1968, the University was occupying approximately 127,000 m2 (1,370,000 sq ft); by the beginning of the 1980s this had increased to 205,000 m2 (2,210,000 sq ft). In 1989 there were 22 degree-awarding schools and 75,000 enrolled students, which increased to 90,000 by 1993.

1980s streamline process

[edit]

In view of this increase, the University began a process of streamlining and delocalising its facilities: from 1986 onwards, new centres began to appear in other areas of Milan, particularly in the Bicocca district, as well as in other parts of the region: in Como, Varese, Crema and Lodi.

In 1998, the University split in two and the city's second public institution was founded: The University of Milan-Bicocca. The University of Insubria was also established in Varese, bringing together courses that were already offered at Varese and Como by the Universities of Milan and Pavia. At the conclusion of this process, notwithstanding the reduction in the number of students, the University of Milan was still the largest institution in Lombardy and still one of the largest in the country.

The 2001 law that transformed the education system opened a new phase of change. The University updated its range of courses, trying to adapt them to better suit the evolution of the social demand for education and the innovation of the production system: thus, the number of degree-awarding programmes rose to 74 and there was a new increase in enrolments. There was also an increase in the University's commitment to providing student services (orientation, internships and training, online education) and in investments for new education and research facilities, covering approximately 80,000 m2 (860,000 sq ft).

The most recent phase of expansion concerned the fields of communication science, intercultural mediation and art, but there are also ongoing projects relating to the sectors of information technology, veterinary medicine and biomedicine. Furthermore, there was also a strengthening of commitment to technology transfer and the practical application of scientific research results in the economic-production context.

Present

[edit]

At present, the University comprises 9 schools, 134 degree-awarding programmes (both undergraduate and graduate), 19 doctoral schools (scuole di dottorato) and 92 specialisation schools (scuole di specializzazione). Approximately 65,000 students are enrolled at the University. The teaching staff is composed of 2,500 tenured professors and researchers and approximately 500 adjunct professors. More than 2,300 people work in the technical and administrative sector. The University of Milan was one of the institutions that helped to establish the League of European Research Universities (LERU) and is the only Italian member of the organisation. Thanks to its commitment to basic and applied research, the University of Milan is among Italy's top institutions in the main national and international rankings.[13]

Admissions

[edit]

Degree programmes at the University of Milan are divided into two types: open-admission programmes and capped-enrolment programmes. Each degree programme defines the knowledge and requirements for matriculation; these may be verified through a compulsory test and/or through an interview for assessing the student's educational background, prior to matriculation. To enrol in capped-enrolment programmes, students must register for an entrance examination, pass it and rank high enough to be awarded one of the places available.

To enroll at the University of Milan is required an English language assessment, which can be demonstrated by an international language certificate CEFR, or through the university language centre (SLAM). The required level for Bachelors usually stands at B1 (Intermediate), while for Masters is B2, but varies depending on the degree course. Those who will not have attained the language level required by their degree programme via Placement test or certification must attend an English language course, and pass the final exam. With the University of Milano-Bicocca, and the Alma Mater of Bologna, is the most sought-after location for medical students,[14] with an acceptance rate of about 5%.

Graduation

[edit]

Full-time students are expected to earn 60 ECTS credits in one academic year. The credits awarded can be recognized for continuing studies, both in Italian universities and abroad. To be awarded a bachelor, the student must earn at least 180 ECTS, while to get a master 120 ECTS are needed. Also, to obtain the highest level of university education, the Dottorato di Ricerca (PhD), at least other 3 to 4 years of studies are required.[15]

Financial Support

[edit]

The University of Milan provides several types of financial support for its students:[16]

It also proposes criteria and new methodologies for assessing University research findings, taking into account the specificities of each area and submits improvement actions to the main governing bodies, with a view to increasing research quality, attractiveness, national and international visibility

Campuses

[edit]

The University of Milan possesses a substantial artistic and cultural heritage that includes renowned historic buildings, inherited and acquired collections, archives, botanical gardens and the old Brera Astronomical Observatory commissioned by Maria Theresa of Austria.[19] The University's departments are housed in important historic buildings in the centre of Milan and in modern buildings in the area known as Città Studi (City of Studies). Among the palazzos that house the University's facilities are the old Ca’ Granda (The Great House) designed by Filarete, a monumental complex from the 15th century in the heart of the historical city centre; the 18th-century Palazzo Greppi designed by Giuseppe Piermarini (architect of La Scala in Milan), and the 17th-century Sant’Alessandro College commissioned by the Arcimboldi family. The book collection, which is one of the richest in the region, is preserved in 47 libraries,[20] while the APICE Centre collects rare and valuable book stocks and archives.

The total university surface area is about 500,000 m2 (5,400,000 sq ft), comprising 356 classrooms with approximately 27,382 seats, 203 teaching and computer laboratories with approximately 1,831 seats and 171 libraries and study rooms with approximately 4,417 seats.

Headquarters – City Centre Campus

[edit]
Chiostro maggiore della Ca’ Granda

Built in 1456 by Francesco I Sforza, Duke of Milan, the Ca’ Granda (The Great House) designed by Filarete is the headquarters of the University of Milan. It was originally named the Magna Domus Hospitalis (The Great House of the Hospital) and was the main building of the Policlinico of Milan, a large hospital complex established during the Renaissance period, which was later expanded with the addition of adjacent structures or nearby buildings in the city centre, close to the Milan Cathedral (Duomo di Milano). The historical buildings of the Policlinico of Milan underwent a careful restoration in the 20th and early 21st centuries. The Ca’ Granda was one of the first Renaissance buildings in Milan and had a large following throughout northern Italy.

At present, it is the seat of the Rectorate of the University of Milan and contains some of the main administrative offices; as well as the central library, lecture halls and auditoria of the School of Humanities and the School of Law.

Città Studi – Scientific Campus

[edit]

Since the late 1960s, the exponential growth of the number of enrolled students forced the university to build other structures in the Città Studi neighbourhood, where the main buildings of all scientific schools and departments of the University of Milan are located, as well as the majority of the research facilities. The Polytechnic University of Milan is also located in this quarter.

The Città Studi Campus Sostenibile (CSCS, "Città Studi Sustainable Campus") is a joint project launched by the University of Milan and the Polytechnic University of Milan in 2011 to turn the Città Studi (the historic university quarter in the city, home to the main campuses of two of its largest universities) into a forum on issues of sustainable development, thereby creating a model for the city at large to follow.

Devised as six roundtables on areas of intervention – People, Energy, Education, Mobility, City, and Food and Health – the project aims to implement a series of best practices with the goal of improving the quality of life for those living in the university quarter, through projects, events and programmes.

Milan Innovation District – MIND

[edit]

Australia-based Lendlease has been contracted to design, build and manage the MIND campus of the University of Milan by a resolution of the board of directors. The project for the new campus of the science schools and departments of the University of Milan, located in the Milan Innovation District (MIND) within the former Expo 2015 area, covers a total area of over 190,000 square meters. The new area will be shared with Human Technopole, Italy's new research institute for life sciences, and the new IRCSS Galeazzi Orthopedic Institute for Medicine. The project has a total value of approximately €338 million.

Hospital campuses

[edit]

The Faculty of Medicine and Surgery has teaching sectors at the following hospitals in Lombardy:

Outside Milan

[edit]

The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, and the University of Milan Centre for Clinical Veterinary Medicine and Experimental Zootechny are located outside the city area, in Lodi. The Department of Studies in Language Mediation and Intercultural Communication is instead located in Sesto San Giovanni.
