Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore promotes the international experience of its students through a network of collaborations and agreements with foreign universities and numerous study programmes (Erasmus, Overseas, ISEP, Study Abroad, IMACS, LaTE Language Training Experience, International internships, International Volunteering, Summer programs, etc.).

Students interested in carrying out a period of university study abroad have as references:

  1. the lecturer of the International Mobility Commission of the Faculty of Arts and Philosophy, contact person for the study programme in which the student is enrolled, to define the study programme and validate the document approving the exams that the student will take abroad and which will subsequently be recognised for the purposes of graduation at UCSC;
  2. a faculty tutor to support international mobility, in the person of dott.sa Miriam Rita Tessera (miriamrita.tessera@unicatt.it), who supports the student for the practical aspects of international mobility;
  3.  the UCSC International office, for the organisational aspects relating to the period of study abroad (info.outbound@unicatt.it).

The International Mobility Commission of the Faculty of Arts and Philosophy is composed of the following professors in charge of the degree programmes:

The professors in charge carry out orientation activities in the choice of university abroad and evaluate the study programme, containing the exams that the student will take abroad and which will subsequently be recognized for the purpose of graduation at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore.

All exams to be taken abroad must be agreed with the referring professors before departure and in any case it is not possible to request the inclusion in the study plan, instead of optional exams, of exams taken abroad and not agreed in advance with the referring professors.

The UCSC International office takes care of agreements with universities abroad and assists students in organising their study period abroad.
Upon returning to Italy, the student must submit documents attesting to the exams taken abroad via the Study Programme platform.
The professors, appointed by the Faculty for the recognition of foreign exams, will convert the evaluation obtained in the exams abroad into thirtieths, on the basis of the official conversion tables published on the Faculty website.
Finally, the Faculty Council approves these conversions and assigns the corresponding credits to the student.
