International Week 2012
Università Bocconi believes in providing students with opportunities to go abroad, allowing them to meet new people, learn to appreciate different cultures and develop a new way of seeing the world. Programs are designed to do all this, in addition to improving international economics and management skills and developing a global mindset.
Each year, the University's International Relations Office hosts "International Week." The event is open to all Bocconi students and it showcases the many opportunities available abroad. Throughout the week, Undergraduate, Graduate and Law students can attend presentations focused on international Bocconi programs, as well as special sessions on program details, emerging geographical areas, international mobility, and presentations by the Career Service.
Each November, students also have the opportunity to get information on programs at the IW Anteprima. There, information is available for Undergraduate, Graduate and Law programs, with a focus on several Graduate opportunities like Double Degree programs and the CEMS Master in International Management, which both have an early selection process.
Students that missed the November event and anyone who would like more detailed info on all of Bocconi's international opportunities should attend this year's edition of International Week, starting on 13 February 2011. It will be a week of presentations and seminars that give students insight on all international opportunities.
