Università di Bologna - UNIBO
speciality: Agriculture & Forestry

The university, my faculty even though located out of main city, i enjoyed the time spent here a lot. It is always in top rankings for agriculture and i can clearly say why. The degree was joint program offered with university of bolzano and i spent 6 months in bolzano and 1.5 years in bologna. The teachers are good and the libraries are amazing. Only problem is that the quality of food available in university mensa could be improved.
I highly recommend this place to everyone.

Hey there!

I recently graduated from the University of Bologna. My course is a master’s in international Horticultural Science. this course high demand all over the world, but the program is not planned properly and only suits the Italian environment. Instead of naming the course (International Masters in Horticultural science), they should’ve named it – Italian Masters in horticultural science. The students don’t have the option to choose different subjects, instead of being forced to learn fixed subjects decided by the University. The laboratories are extraordinary and the university infrastructure is outstanding though. A good option for different subjects will make it a great course. Overall experience is not bad, but it is useless for international students like me.

The program was good enough but the services are terrible. The university secretary doesn’t really exist and when you need help they don’t answer. If they did, it didn’t help you. Many teachers are overestimated and arrogant.

I state that I have no idea what the other universities are in Italy, but for the direction of studies that I do (Viticulture and Enology in Cesena) even if they are only in the first year it seems structured quite well. The teachers up until now are very well prepared, they explain very well and are very available in case we students have difficulties. Then the beauty of the venue is that we are relatively few (430) and therefore we have 2/3 green areas where you can rest in the breaks and is also very well equipped and well organized both with laboratories and schedules
