FROM STUDY TO WORK

The meeting point between study and work. Added value for students and companies.

The link with the business network is kept active thanks to the organisational structures of the University support. In addition to the many extra curricular activities that complement the education of the students with theatre, sports, web radio, student associations, there are also highly innovative and qualified pathways that allow them to actively take part in research projects commissioned by companies and their partners through the mentoring of teachers within the research centres.

The Career Service actively maintains daily contact with the Human Resource offices of companies and operates through in-depth cognitive interviews with students tin order to assess attitudes and propensities, therefore increasing the efficiency of the interview/selection meetings between companies and graduates.

The International office develops agreements with foreign universities in Europe and the other countries around the world, on the basis of which students may spend periods of study abroad. In many cases the stay also includes qualified curricular in foreign companies (internship). The external programmes, in addition to Erasmus, include a learning week at partner universities, summer/winter schools in China, the United States and other countries with company visits, graduation with a “Double title” with a year of study away from LIUC. The rate of participation in these courses is the highest in Italy and includes one degree out of every two.

Finally, the Library is an active tool; not just a book depository, with its staff assisting internal and external public searching for scientific articles, documents and access to available databases.
