University of Turin, or UniTo for short, is among the oldest universities in Europe and the world. Parts of the institution can be found in various locations around Turin and indeed the wider Italian region of Piedmont in the north west of the country. This prestigious university currently has a student body of more than 70,000, at both under- and postgraduate levels. Thousands of students come to UniTo from outside of Italy, too.
Founded in the year 1404 thanks to a papal bull from Pope Benedict XIII, it is no surprise that the university has undergone dramatic changes and expansion since it opened its doors.Show more
My opinion about this university is not quite good but overall moderate. It is not quite well organized, many couses have not classes to be taken or classes where doing the exams. The mole of study is unbelievable, expecially in Medicine, and the modality of lessons is very old. Only theorical lessons for 3 years and then some pratical courses but where you are not able to be involved so much
View moreI was there 30 years ago and now it is my elder son attending the same university. I can share the experience of a good place of study that is plenty of opportunities if you have the will and the interest to really create your knowhow and competences for the professinal life. Due to many location sites, sometimes following the courses could be a little sparse and confusionary, but it is compensated by the Turin city like that is very nice for a young student
View moreI studied at the University of Turin a few years ago and overall I had a positive experience. The university offers a wide range of courses and has a long academic tradition. Some administrative procedures could be slow at times, but the professors were generally knowledgeable and supportive. Looking back, I’m glad I chose UniTo and I would recommend it to anyone considering studying in Italy.
View moreI completed both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Languages at the University of Turin. Overall, my experience was very positive. The programme offered a strong combination of language learning, translation, linguistics, literature, and intercultural communication. I appreciated the opportunity to study different languages and develop both academic and practical skills.
The university provides access to many resources, international opportunities, and dedicated professors who are knowledgeable in their fields. As with any large university, some administrative procedures can occasionally be slow, but the quality of the education largely compensates for this.
I would recommend UniTO to students interested in languages, translation, and international communication, especially those who are motivated and willing to engage actively with their studies.
View moreIt’s definitely recommended if you are coming to Italy from abroad, but considere carefully your options. The buildings are all across the city so the position really depends on the courses’ choice. What’s really important is that it’s a really populous university and city, you can get plenty of help from peers, definitely not from the university, and many libraries to study in or to take textbooks from.
