2.1.
Students enrolled starting from the 2010-2011 academic year

The University reform of 1999, through the joint agreement of the European Ministers of Education meeting  in Bologna, transformed the organization of the Italian university by changing the structure of both the study plan  and  the degree programs in the fields of Economics and Management; from one long four-year cycle to the so-called 3 plus 2, structured in two cycles (undergraduate and graduate).

The result of a homogeneous course of studies in Europe was the free movement of students in the universities during their educational training and subsequently the movement of graduates in the world of work.

The two study cycles are to be considered separate; at the end of each, a final exam is required, as well as the awarding of a diploma and the certification of the title obtained.

Once the 3-year cycle has been completed the student can decide whether to enter the world of work or continue his university studies by enrolling in the graduate program  (Master of Science or a Specialized Master).

Since the start of the Università Bocconi graduate programs, the selection process has been distinct from that  of the undergraduate one; therefore admission to an undergraduate degree program does not imply the automatic admission to a Master of Science program.

The selection criteria for the graduate programs are defined by the administration during the annual plan of activities and are published on the Internet website and in the Bocconi information pack  before the candidates' assessment procedure takes place.

For the 2014-2015 academic year, the Undergraduate School offers the first and second year of studies for the following three-year Bachelor programs:

    • 4 Bachelor programs which are part of the "Management" field of study (no. L-18, Ministerial Decree 16 March 2007):
      - Bachelor of Economia aziendale e management [Business Administration and Management] (CLEAM);
      - Bachelor of Economia e finanza [Economics and Finance] (CLEF);
      - Bachelor of Economia e management per arte, cultura e comunicazione [Economics and Management in Arts, Culture and Communication] (CLEACC) ;
      - International Economics and Management (BIEM)
    • 2 Bachelor programs which is part of the "Economics" field of study (no. L-33, Ministerial Decree 16 March 2007):
      - Bachelor of Economia e scienze sociali [Economics and Social Sciences] (CLES);
      - International Economics and Finance (BIEF);
  • 1 Bachelor program (interdisciplinary program) which is part of the "Economics" field of study (no. L-33, Ministerial Decree 16 March 2007) and of the "Management" field of study (no. L-18, Ministerial Decree 16 March 2007):
    - Bachelor of International Economics, Management and Finance (BIEMF) (run for only the second and third year 2014-2015).


Six programs share the same disciplinary foundation: Economia aziendale e management [Business Administration and Management]; Economia e finanza [Economics and Finance]; Economia e scienze sociali [Economics and Social Sciences], International Economics, Management and Finance, International Economics and Management and International Economics and Finance.

The Bachelor of International Economics, Management and Finance, International Economics and Management and International Economics and Finance are taught in English and have a marked international preparation.

Economia e management per arte, cultura e comunicazione [Economics and Management in Arts, Culture and Communication] is characterized by specific course profiles, starting with the first year of studies.

The structure of the 6 programs with a shared disciplinary foundation is centred around 3 modules:

  • common foundation: during the first 3 semesters the same subject foundation is proposed for all Bachelor programs. Basic knowledge concerning the fields of political economics, corporate economics, and quantitative methods and law is covered;
  • characterization of the Bachelor programs: the fourth semester and part of the fifth deal with subjects which characterize the chosen study program. Specifically, the subject matter of the program includes, an in-depth understanding of private and public enterprises and how they work, the finance sector, sectors that deal with the general economic system, economics and the political-institutional and social contexts, with a strong focus on internationalism;
  • individualizing the educational path: in the fifth and especially in the sixth semesters, students  choose how to complete their educational path by sitting elective exams which may be chosen selecting elective courses from among the general list.  

The class groups, comprised on average of 125 students for the programs taught in Italian and 100 for the programs taught in English, are structured as follows:

The program requirements are expressed in credit points.
A credit point is the unit of measurement which determines the workload students are required to fulfill. It is assumed that students are adequately prepared from the start to carry out the educational activities required by the study program. The workload includes both classroom activities (lessons, exercises, seminars) and individual study, as well as other educational activities such as preparation of the final paper.

In accordance with the ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System), on average 1 credit point corresponds to 25 hours of work for the student; about 8 hours, (but no more than 10) are spent in the classroom.

The average workload for a full-time student is set at 60 credit points per year as per agreement.

To graduate, students must have earned 180 credit points.

Credit points are given for all educational activities which students carry out, such as exams for both compulsory and elective courses, foreign language and IT exams, and preparation of the final paper.

Credit points do not substitute marks; they are given when passed exams are registered. Credit points and marks make up the student's academic curriculum.

2.1.1.
Educational activities

The program structures are made up of a variety of educational activities to which credits are assigned. Such activities can be divided as follows:
 

  • compulsory activities: compulsory courses, first and second European language, seminars, computer skills, final paper);
  • activity chosen by the student: electives, activities carried out at other universities, third foreign language, internship);

The student's individual study plan must include at least one course taught in English (compulsory or elective).

For students to graduate, the university reform requires that they have knowledge of 2 European languages, for all programs in the fields of Economics and Management (first and second language). The rules for the choice of foreign language courses are specified in chapter 3.1 Foreign Languages and Computer skills.

2.1.2.
Compulsory courses

Every program structure includes compulsory courses, corresponding to exams that all students enrolled in that program must pass.
Therefore compulsory courses are essential in order to satisfy program requirements, and are the fundamental building blocks for the educational objectives of the program.  According to current regulations such educational activities are classified as: "basic", "characteristic" of the program's field of study, "similar or supplementary to the characteristic ones", with particular regard to the cultural context and interdisciplinary education, and "independently decided upon by the university".  

"Bachelor Degree program structures" contains a section devoted to each Bachelor Program where students can find the detailed program structure with the list of all the compulsory courses, their credit point value and positioning in the program's year of studies.

Course profiles are available on the website at http://www.unibocconi.eu/courses.

Detailed course programs (course syllabuses) are available on line, and are also usually handed out by teachers in the classroom on the first days of lessons.

The courses subdivided in modules are considered passed, and may be recorded in the student academic career and certified, only after passing both exams of which it is made up. The final grade is obtained by the grade point average of the two marks compared to the credits of each module. The average is rounded up if decimals are equal or higher than 5, rounded down if they are lower than 5.

It is furthermore specified that the credit points and the grades earned for the single modules passed will be taken into account for rankings within the University (e.g. ISU Scholarship, selection for International Programs...) and they can be viewed by printing the unofficial academic transcript at the Punto Blu.

The positioning of elective courses and of internship in the I or in the II semester is merely a suggestion.  Students can choose to include such activities in their study plan in the I semester or in the II semester, or one in the I and one in the II semester. The student's individual study plan must include at least 1 compulsory and/or elective courses taught in English

In accordance with the educational objectives of the program and of the ministerial tables, field of study  Management,the program structure may be subject to variations decided on by the organs of administration.

Majors

The Major of Metodo, critica e ricerca nelle discipline artistiche/Method, Critique and Research in Artistic Disciplines is arranged in 3 courses, totaling 18 CP. They are made up of 3 semesters (first year II semester, second year I and II semester), and allow students to learn the artistic and cultural language typical of western tradition. 
The knowledge acquired gives students the appropriate background needed to critically read, understand and appreciate specific subject areas which may lead to a vocation.

The first introductory course is compulsory and held in the 4 class groups while the two second year courses are monographic courses to be freely chosen by the students whose the content can change year by year and they can be taught in Italian or in English. They deal with:

VISUAL ARTS: for giving students the basis  to study and interpret  ancient, modern and contemporary visual arts 

VISUAL CULTURES: for an in-depth study of the fundamental topics of visual cultures, such as photography, design, cinema, radio and television.

PUBLIC OPINION, INFORMATION, NARRATION: for studying the mechanisms which lead to public opinion, analysing the value of mass communication today and in the past. The objective is to shed light on the connection between information, democracy and totalitarianism. 
HISTORY OF PERFORMING ARTS: it proposes an in-depth study of the important topics of contemporary performing arts by comparing the various disciplines, and the analysis of the elements which are common to and different from the evolution of the cinema, of music and the theater.
HISTORY AND THE CRITIQUE OF THE CULTURE: to introduce students to an historical, critical and phenomenological knowledge of the foundations of western culture.
Further information on courses are published on the website.

At the end of the first year the students choose two second year courses through the Punto Blu.

The courses subdivided in modules are considered passed, and may be recorded in the student academic career and certified, only after passing both exams of which it is made up. The final grade is obtained by the grade point average of the two marks compared to the credits of each module. The average is rounded up if decimals are equal or higher than 5, rounded down if they are lower than 5.

It is furthermore specified that the credit points and the grades earned for the single modules passed will be taken into account for rankings within the University (e.g. ISU Scholarship, selection for International Programs...) and they can be viewed by printing the unofficial academic transcript at the Punto Blu.

The positioning of elective course, internship and workshop in the I or II semester is merely a suggestion. Students can choose to include such activities in their study plan in the I or II semester or part in the I and part in the II semester.

In accordance with the educational objectives of the program and of the ministerial table, field of study  Economics, the program structure may be subject to variations decided on by the organs of administration.

Detailed information on foreign language courses and computer skills can be found in "Foreign Languages and Computer skills".

(*) The choice of the first foreign language for native English-speaking students is explained in "Method of choosing foreign languages".

2.2.
Elective courses

Students choose elective courses in order to complete their study plan for the section relating to the "activities chosen by the students". The elective course is worth 6 CP. There is a wide choice of electives.

Università Bocconi promotes an interdisciplinary education path and therefore students can freely structure their study plan by choosing courses from the different courses offered in the academic year or from a list of compulsory courses characteristic of other Bachelor programs. An elective course may be replaced by a curricular internship. For further information on choices see "Choice of elective courses".
