Description

The University of Parma is a state university. As such, it is self-governing and has administrative, organisational and accountancy autonomy, providing services to the general public. In 962, Emperor Ottonian I conferred on Uberto, the Bishop of Parma, the initiation of the university in the “Diploma” – a document that granted the bishop the power to order and elect legal leaders. This document was the foundation of an educational institution that would last for centuries, and is still preserved in the bishop's archives in Parma today. The university has 18 departments, 35 first degree courses, six one-cycle degree courses, 38 second degree courses, as well as many postgraduate schools, postgraduate teacher training courses, several master’s degrees and research doctorates (PhD). The size of the university and the living conditions in Parma attract a large number of students from all over Italy. The different locations of the university allows students to study in comfortable, efficient structures near green areas, such as the Campus: a 77 hectare area south of the city accommodating scientific departments, modern and well-equipped lecture halls, comfortable study areas and technologically advanced laboratories – as well as several sports facilities, a conference centre and a canteen. There are information and career counselling services to help students with their university-related choices, good relations with foreign universities, and a lively exchange of students in terms of community programmes, including many scholarships.

The city itself is a lot student based and designed so is really good to study. Then, the department where I studied is central, has really good classrooms and teachers are really available if you are in need of advice or a guideline.

I'm Alessia Quarto, I'm studying for 2 years at the University of Parma and this is my last year of the first cycle of studies. My experience so far has been pretty good because I have found very qualified professors who have been able to share their passion for the subject they taught, university's building is very good, we have many libraries, rooms for studying in a group, places where we can work together for projects. But one of the thing that I like less in the Italian learning system is the fact that there isn't much practice and all is more theoretical; for this reason, many italian students have good preparation but little working experience. Something that I would change is also the relationship between professors and students, there isn't an open dialogue and because of this sometimes, for students, it's hard to communicate with them.

My opinion about my University and my University's career is very positive. From my point of view, this is a great, very valuable place to study and full of good professors, who they put their souls for teaching. Even the community is great, full of great people, where you can create very strong and powerful bonds. Pointing the scientific study and the employment opportunities, they have great professor, that can teach you not only the concept of the study, but also the passion of it, and about the jobs, our university has a great connection and a name. In the end, I say that I recommend my university: this is the place I choose in the past and, if I had the possibility to rewind time, without hesitation, I would pick the same option.
