“MBA degree in an international environment”
Deniz D
Italy,
Business Studies, 2023
Overall
University of Padova is a very well reputated university in Europe with its history and level of education. The university offers courses in Italian and English and therefore there are a lot of international students. The master degree in Business administration was very helpful providing hands on experiences to students to create projects with managers of different companies in different sectors, for this reason I had a lot of opportunity to conduct projects in several fields of business such ash: finance, marketing, operations management etc.

“One of the best choices in Italy for Business Studies”
Giorgia Z
Italy, Graduate
Business Studies, 2019
Overall
The course of Business Administration is totally held in english. There are many courses focused on accounting and finance, less space is given to marketing or communication. Generally during the courses are assigned Group works. There are many possibility to study abroad (Erasmus+ study and traineeship) and partnerships with important international institutions. The professors generally are really competent and outstanding in their professional training.

Personal recommendation
If you are studying Psychology and your main goal in going there is for academic reasons, it may not be the right place. If you are looking for a balance between academic, social and a beautiful country, Italy is the best!

Italy is a fantastic country. The people, the food, the landscape, the arquitecture are absolutely great. I would highly recommend it for an Erasmus (or similar) experience and I will forever have a special feeling about this country. The whole country is worth visiting.

Final comments
Padova is a great place to get to know Italian culture and learn the language. If you are looking for serious study experience (e.g.long hours over the projects and revising for exams), don't go to Italy. If you are once there then it depends on you - you can study hard and benefit not only from new language skills but also academic experience. Good luck!

“Summary of my university experience”
Clara H
Italy,
Translation/Interpretation, 2022
Overall
Ever since I was a child, both my mother (a native of Veneto) and my father (a native of Sicily who later moved here to Padua to study) have always boasted of Padua's universities, which over time have been able to build their reputation as Italy's leading universities. My personal experience within this environment was further confirmation of what I had been told.
After finishing my studies, I felt that my language skills had been enhanced and broadened.
