Undergraduate Degree/Bachelor of Science - B.Sc. (Laurea Triennale o a Ciclo Unico)Course duration: 3, 5 or 6 yearsECTS/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 yearsECTS/Credit points: 120Undertaken after the undergraduate degree and aims to provide rigorous, advanced training in more highly special-ized areas.

Specializing Master (Master Universitario)Course duration: 1 yearECTS/Credit points: 60A 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.

Doctoral Program - Ph.D. (Dottorato di Ricerca)Course duration: 3 yearsECTS/Credit points: 180Undertaken after the completion of a M.Sc. or an equiva-lent graduate degree. It aims to develop the professional competence to carry out high level research in manufactur-ing and service companies, public bodies and universities.

Design My Career is addressed to study abroad and ex-change students who wish to undertake a professional experience in a culturally-diverse environment as part of their academic curriculum.

The program provides each student intern with an integrated academic and professional learning experience, which can be done at different periods during the academic year and in two different modalities:

Full-time internship program

●What it includes: an Intensive Italian language course be-fore placement (6 ECTS), workshops, internship placement, academic and company tutorship/advising ●The full-time internship is ideal for students having done prior a semester at Cattolica and wish to complement their studies with a full-time work experience in Italy; or it may be an opportunity for those only interested in a stand-alone internship program ●When: Fall (Sept. - Dec.), Spring (Feb. - May), or Summer (end-May - July) ●Credits: 180 hours (Summer), 6 ECTS; 240 hours (Semes-ter), 9 ECTS

Part-time internship program

●What it includes: 2/3 academic courses at Cattolica (12-15 ECTS), Intensive Italian Language (6 ECTS), part-time internship placement (180 hrs/6 ECTS) ●The part-time internship will be primarily a project-work defined together with the Cattolica Academic Advisor

and the assigned Company tutor/advisor. It may be that the student will not be required to regularly work at the company base. ●When: Fall and Spring semesters

The internship placements

The placements are offered in the following areas: ●Business ●Supply chain ●Accounting and finance ●Marketing ●Consulting ●Banking ● Fashion and sales* ● Legal services ●Translations/editing ●Communication

*for positions in this area some Italian knowledge might berequired.. Students must be aware that over 90% of Italian businesses are small or medium-size enterprises, so place-ments in large multinational companies are limited. The placements that are offered here, which do not require the knowledge of Italian, are among very few available positions. If you are given a placement, there may not be an alternative option. It is therefore important that candidates understand the need to be flexible. However, Cattolica will take great care in finding the best match.
