Università di Genova - UniGe (reviews)

UniGe is a modern university with many options, some of which are unique to it, such as Maritime, Transport, and Logistics Economics. Its main drawback is that some of its infrastructure requires increased funding for maintenance due to damaged classrooms.

When I graduated high school, I wasn’t really capable of studying yet. Once I enrolled in university, despite some initial hesitation and after taking various courses, including supplementary afternoon courses, I finally learned what it means to have a proper study method. Thanks, Unige.

High quality teaching, very good professor, wide choice of subjects. Very beautiful old building but inadeguate to host university courses. Classroom too small, too hot in summer and cold during the winter

Receiving my acceptance into the STRATEGOS MSc program at the University of Genoa was a truly rewarding and motivating experience. From a student’s perspective, the entire selection process felt structured, competitive, and meaningful, which made the final approval even more satisfying.

What stood out to me most was the clarity and professionalism of the communication. Even when there were minor system errors mentioned, the administration ensured that selected students were properly informed and reassured. Being officially approved without needing additional testing gave me confidence in the strength of my application and academic background.

The program itself appears highly interdisciplinary, combining engineering, strategy, and security—fields that are increasingly important in today’s global landscape. As a student, I find this blend particularly exciting because it promises both technical knowledge and strategic thinking skills, which are essential for future leadership roles.

The post-acceptance guidance was detailed and helpful. Although the number of steps (such as Universitaly registration, pre-enrollment, and visa processing) may feel overwhelming at first, the instructions provided were clear enough to follow step by step. I especially appreciated the information about financial support opportunities like the ALISEO grant, which makes the program more accessible to international students.

Overall, this experience has been both encouraging and inspiring. It not only validates my academic efforts but also opens the door to an international learning environment in Italy. I am genuinely excited to begin this journey and grow both professionally and personally through STRATEGOS.
