The Milanese university moves to keep up with the demand from students and managers for mobile education

As of today, Università Bocconi is on iTunes U, a special area of the iTunes Store (www.itunes.it) that offers free audio and video content from leading educational institutions. Università Bocconi's presence on iTunes meets the request for mobile device-based training and education from students and anyone interested in staying up to date on the world of economics and management.

Università Bocconi on iTunes has over 120 items of audio and video content, including events, lessons and research that can be downloaed onto any computer, iPhone, iPod or iPad.

"Apple products are increasingly used as tools for study and work due to the flexibility they allow in using audio and video materials", says Ferdinando Pennarola, Rector Delegate for technology enhanced learning. "Both students and the public at large can now meet Bocconi and try it out on iTunes U".

The Bocconi channel on iTunes completes a multimedia bouquet that already includes presence on Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter.
