University Associations and Groups


The uni experience is not just about study. LIUC organises events and sporting and recreational activities to foster relationships and social life, not least through the collaboration of the many student associations in the university.

Founded in January 1992, right after the start of LIUC’s first academic year, the Association has always had the priority of raising awareness of the new University that the Union of Industrialists of the Province of Varese wished to set up to train a new class of managers to be employed in the production sector, in the Public Administration, in the Courts and in the liberal professions with the greatest bearing on economics (accountants, lawyers, notaries).

Another purpose of the Association is to raise funds for scholarships for students at the University. The funds are used on the basis of merit and income criteria for the disbursement of scholarships at LIUC.

The President of the Association of Friends of LIUC – AmiLIUC is the architect Fabio Bettinelli.

The purpose of the National Association of Italian Blood Volunteers (AVIS) is to promote blood donation as a universal humanitarian value and an expression of solidarity, voluntary contribution, social and civic participation and the protection of the right to good health.

An AVIS university group has been active at LIUC since 2001 and includes actual donors (students, faculty and administrators); affiliates (former donors who are still helping Avis Liuc); and guests (people who work or study at Liuc but donate in another section).

The LIUC University Section of AVIS relies on the Busto Arsizio Hospital transfusion centre for visits and donations.

You can email avis@liuc.it for information on how to become a donor in the section.

Those who are already Avis donors can contact us if they would like to join the university Avis group.

Students have the opportunity to actually apply the theoretical knowledge they have gained in the classroom as early as during their undergraduate studies, thanks to a number of job opportunities in the business world. In particular, JEL is involved in providing consultancy services to a range of businesses in various fields, in the areas of finance, marketing, organisation, planning and control. Today there are 22,000 students across Europe who are members of Junior Enterprise, which started in France in 1967. Through ongoing classroom presence and faculty support, JEL ensures good quality work for companies that need advice.

What do the present and future look like for women in academia, business and society at large? Much can and must still be done in the area of gender policies in Italy, and that is why the students of LIUC – Cattaneo University have decided to make a small contribution to the cause. The Women Empowerment LIUC Club is a student association that works “to promote, incentivise and inform female LIUC students in their academic and professional career development through seminars, workshops and meetings with female professional role models”.

The initiative is intended to enhance the sense of community and enrich the uni experience of female students. This includes involving well-known highflyers – women who not only have interesting careers, with a focus on areas related to LIUC’s graduate programs, Economics and Engineering, but are also committed to supporting other women and spreading a culture of collaboration.

The group also aims to raise awareness on issues such as gender equality in the work environment, family-work balance, incentives for women’s presence in certain sectors and the gender gap.
