As someone who is coming from a small and not so developed country, I am very grateful to have the opportunity to study and live in Italy. I am a student of COMMA (Communication and Management) course, at the Catholic University of Sacred Heart in Milan, Italy. Studying here is one step closer to your dreams coming true. The campus is enormously big, there many green areas, yet it has historical value, so its architectural part is beautiful. It’s like studying at a museum. However, it is provided by new technology and our lessons are pretty modern. Professors are trying their best to have a good connection with students and to educate, them by hosting many food and fashion influencers during our lessons. I enjoy studying here and I think that coming here is the best decision I’ve ever made.

The professors are prepared professionals with pertinent backgrounds and excellent English levels. The course is dynamic and practical, being more focused on real cases for future job scenarios than on academic and theoretical projects. I am overall happy and satisfied.
View moreThe programme is for international students, and it is very updated with the current global affairs. Our course has a mix of subjects in the social and political sciences that are useful to expand our general knowledge
View moreMy experience at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore has been positive so far. Things are pretty well-organised, professors are good at their job and kind to students and the site is beautiful and clean. I wish there were more programmes in English and I wish professors spoke better English, these are the only flaws in my opinion.
View moreWhat I like most about the program is the fact that it is so actual and relevant to our current society, there is a strong emphasis on sustainability that can be found throughout all courses, which I really enjoy since I strongly believe that everybody should be informed and updated with our current situation, regulations and solutions regarding our future.
Moreover, it is a course that emphasises group work, communication in its real practical sense, discussions, debates; even though the subjects can get quite abstract at times I believe the professors are doing a great job in trying to materialise the ideas presented through group works, essays, surveys, research practices, video-making. The course welcomes creativity and innovation.
The Communication Management bachelor at UCSC is the perfect course for an international student wanting to learn about sustainability and the contemporary world through societal concepts while being immersed in an Italian environment. This course has the perfect balance of theory (through traditional lectures) and practice (through workshops, class discussions, projects).
A piece of advice I would give for future students would be to get Italian classes as soon as possible to get the full Cattolica experience. Since everyone is extremely friendly and approachable it is a shame to restrict yourself to only a certain group of people.
Cattolica also offers exchange programs and Erasmus exchanges: I am going myself to Los Angeles next semester. The process can be a bit stressful, but everyone is at your disposal for any questions you might have and the opportunity is simply amazing
I really enjoy the programme as it is really widespread. We learn from economics, through law and going to fashion, sustainability, and so on. My colleagues are really helpful and friendly even if we still know each other only online. Professors are really kind and explain everything no matter how many times you need to understand it clearly.
View moreBeing a student in Communication Management I would recommend this course to those who are interested in the world of communication from a managerial point of view, as it combines more humanistic subjects and economic ones. The environment is really great, students are often asked to work together and confront their experiences from many perspectives. Moreover, the number of students is really small, making it easier to meet friends also for people coming from abroad.
Professors are almost always available to help us navigate the university experience and improve our understanding of the concepts explained during classes.
Finally, the campus is truly amazing and well connected to the other areas of the city, making it very easy to reach regardless of where you are staying.
Ona a general note, based on my experience I would for sure recommend Università Cattolica and this course in particular.
My programme is Communication Management and I’m very satisfied and happy that I chose it. I also really like my university Cattolica del Sacro Cuore. The place is beautiful, tutors and administration help you a lot.
The only thing I don’t like is that you’re forced to take the Theology exam, but overall i recommend this university.
