Bocconi University - Milano Hotel Vittoria
Bocconi University is a private university and considered as one of Europe's leading institutions in business and economic education. It is located in central Milan, Italy, beside Parco Ravizza, and was established in 1902.
Bocconi (full official name in Italian Università Commerciale Luigi Bocconi) grants Bachelor, Master of Science, MBA and Ph.D. degrees. It also offers executive education and customized Masters, conducting them both in English and Italian, in addition to a range of full double degrees, at the undergraduate and the graduate level, with international institutions such as ESADE in Barcelona, HEC School of Management in Paris, the University of California, the Louvain School of Management in Belgium, Fudan University in Shanghai, the CEU Business School in Budapest, the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, and the Moscow State Institute of International Relations.
SDA Bocconi is the University's business school. Its MBA program has recently been ranked among the global top 40 by the Financial Times' Global MBA Rankings 2009.[1]. The Wall Street Journal has ranked it among the top 20 best business schools in the world in 2007 [2]. Forbes has ranked Bocconi no.1 worldwide in the specific category Value for Money [3].
Bocconi University was established in 1902, with a generous endowment from Ferdinando Bocconi, a self-made entrepreneur and the owner of the retail chain "Magazzini Bocconi". He intended to commemorate his son Luigi lost in the Battle of Adowa. Ferdinando sold his "Magazzini Bocconi", originally meant to be Luigi's heritage, which were renamed in 1917 into "La Rinascente" (eng. "that which is born again"), their name until today. Bocconi University, with other economic faculties as "M. Biagi" of Modena and Reggio Emilia, became one of the first Italian institutions of higher education to grant a degree in economics.
Since its inception, Bocconi has stood for liberalism, pluralism, and social progress. While a private institution, Bocconi has traditionally been more than an elite university. It has consistently promoted and practiced equal opportunity among the many generations of its students, by actively subsidizing the education for disadvantaged students. In the words of its first Rector and President, Leopoldo Sabbatini, a strenuosly democratic lawyer, Bocconi's aim is to "promote harmony between school and life."
Today, Bocconi is a university of international standing in business, economics, and law. It is also a research university, getting funds for its research projects from national and supranational institutions. By virtue of being a major node in the European and global network of business and economics universities, Bocconi exchanges faculty and cooperates on large projects with like-minded European and North-American universities and business schools. Bocconi has strong network of exchange programs with prestigious institutions such as Dartmouth College, Norwegian School of Economics and Business Administration, Harvard University, Marshall Business School of the University of Southern California, the Wharton, Stern, Goizueta, McCombs business schools, the UCLA Anderson School of Management, UC Berkeley, The Ohio State University, and Boston College.
Bocconi has close relations with major corporations and international agencies, as well as their managers and officials, and constantly interacts with the business and economic environment to tackle new issues, implement new techniques, and start new research endeavours.
Bocconi University is now structured around five major schools: Undergraduate School, Graduate School, Law School, PhD School, and, with a larger degree of autonomy, SDA Bocconi School of Management, its graduate business school. Bocconi presently offers Bachelor Degrees, Masters of Science, MBAs and PhDs in Finance, Economics, Management, Statistics, Law and other disciplines. It also has a number of post-experience programs, and administers many customized executive education courses.
Furthermore, the university promotes and often organizes numerous activities for high school students in Italy, such as mathematics competitions [4], Model United Nations simulations[5] and other major events aimed at orienting them during their secondary education.
