Students enrolled starting from the 2015-2016 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 2017-2018 academic year, the Undergraduate School offers the first and second year of studies for the following three-year Bachelor of Science programs:
 
  • 4 Bachelor of Science programs which are part of the "Management" field of study (no. L-18, Ministerial Decree 16 March 2007):
    • Bachelor of Science in Economia aziendale e management [Business Administration and Management] (CLEAM);
    • Bachelor of Science in Economia e finanza [Economics and Finance] (CLEF);
    • Bachelor of Science in Economia e management per arte, cultura e comunicazione - Economics and Management for Arts, Culture and Communication (CLEACC);
    • Bachelor of Science in International Economics and Management (BIEM)

  • 3 Bachelor of Science programs which is part of the "Economics" field of study (no. L-33, Ministerial Decree 16 March 2007):
    • Bachelor of Science in Economia e scienze sociali (2nd year and 3rd year active)  - Economic and Social Sciences (CLES-BESS);
    • Bachelor of Science in International Economics and Finance (BIEF);
    • Economics, Management and Computer Science (BEMACS);
  • 1 Bachelor of Science program belonging to the program field of studies L-36 Ministerial Decree 16 March 2007 Scienze politiche e delle relazioni internazionali:
    • Bachelor of Science in International Politics and Government (BIG);

Five 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] (2nd and 3rd year active), International Economics and Management and International Economics and Finance.

The Bachelor of Science International Economics and Management, International Economics and Finance, International Politics and Government, Economics Management and Computer Science, Economic and Social Sciences (1st year active) and a classgroup of Economics and Management for Arts, Culture and Communication are taught in English (a knowledge of English equal to at least a B2 level is required) and have a marked international preparation.
The remaining programs, taught in Italian, need a prerequisite of English knowledge of B1 level.

Economia e management per arte, cultura e comunicazione - Economics and Management in Arts, Culture and Communication, Economics, Management and Computer Science, Economic and Social Sciences and International Politics and Government are characterized by specific course profiles, starting with the first year of studies.

The structure of the 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 of Science programs. Basic knowledge concerning the fields of political economics, corporate economics, and quantitative methods and law is covered;
  • characterization of the Bachelor of Science 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 120 students for the programs are 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.

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 and Political Sciences and International Relations (first and second language). The rules for the choice of foreign language courses are specified in chapter 3.1 Foreign Languages.

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".  

The "Bachelor of Science program structures" chapter contains a section devoted to each Bachelor of Science 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.

[Accounting and financial statement analysis].


Courses divided into modules are officially passed (and can be recorded in the student academic career and certified) only after passing both modules’ examinations. The final grade is the weighted arithmetic mean of the two marks. Weights are courses’ credit points. The mean is rounded up if decimals are equal or higher than 5, rounded down if they are lower than 5.

Credit points and grades earned for the single modules passed are 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.

Educational objectives

The Bachelor of of Science in Economia e Scienze sociali [Economic and Social Sciences] (CLES) has the following educational objectives:

  1. provide a solid basic preparation in business, economics, quantitative and juridical subject areas to critically understand the economic-juridical context in which companies, public bodies, financial institutions work;
  2. provide a preparation in economics to:
    • understand economics in today's complex world, regarding both interaction between individuals as well as the business sector, international institutions and governments;
    • distinguish, in these contexts, the general principles from the evaluation of isolated cases;
  3. promote knowledge acquisition and development of applied competences relative to:
    - formulating autonomous conceptual analysis of micro and macroeconomics to understand the relationships of cause and effect between the main economic variables, ensure data accuracy, and formulate logical links in one's economic sector;
    - critically understand theoretical models in scientific and economic literature as regards commercial and financial companies, international institutions and research bodies;
    - identify key elements of themodels themselves, derive hypotheses to be submitted to empirical verification, construct rigorous tests to compare with the data the hypothetical theories previously formulated;
  4. develop competences besides knowledge via educational activities inside and outside the classroom which promote student-teacher interaction and interaction between the students themselves (ability to express their opinions, to work in group, to negotiate) as well as developing problem setting and problem solving skills;
  5. develop competences to have a command of economics, computer skills, and the use of two EU foreign languages to be effective and efficient in the professional sphere;
  6. stimulate students to responsibly evaluate the consequences of their decisions in the professional sphere.

Description of the educational path

CLES is taught in Italian, but students must also sit exams for courses taught in English.

The study program shares with others a part of the educational path chiefly concentrated in the first three semesters.

From the fourth semester CLES differs from the other Bachelor of Science programs in that it includes courses to reinforce analytical training and the statistics-economic background of students.

In the last part of the path students can adapt their study plan to their individual objectives (courses only or courses and curricular internships).

In addition, the student plan includes:

  • activities to develop IT skills;
  • two EU languages different from the student’s native language. English is compulsory for all students who are not English native speakers;
  • final paper.

Educational objectives

The Bachelor of Science in Economic and Social Sciences has the following specific objectives:
  • provide a solid grounding in economics, quantitative disciplines, management and law, in order to understand - critically and from a multidisciplinary standpoint - the economic context in which individuals, firms, national and international institutions operate; 
  • distinguish the study program through a broad and comprehensive preparation in economics (micro and macroeconomics), underpinned by advanced mathematical-statistical tools and supplemented by logical-cognitive tools and elements of social sciences. This multidisciplinary approach blends the study of economic models describing ideal rational economic behavior with the analysis of real-world economic behavior (thoroughly described by modern experimental and social psychology). The aim is to foster understanding of an increasingly complex set of economic and social phenomena (such as the causes of unemployment, the structure of social security systems, globalization, and the underlying reasons for financial crises).
  • promote development of applied competences aimed at analyzing economic and social issues with a scientific and critical approach by:
    • designing theoretical models (using  mathematical tools) in order to understand logical connections and cause-effect relationships among the variables affecting the economic and social environment (e.g.: is it true that more immigrants cause higher unemployment rates? Is this question sound from a logical and economic point of view? What are the most suitable statistical methods for measuring the causal link between these variables on the basis of available data?)
    • testing hypotheses by empirical evidence and application of econometric tools (e.g.: if immigration grew by 1% in one year, would unemployment increase or decrease? And by how much?)
    • applying deductive and inductive methods that allow: (I) detecting valid (or invalid) arguments in probabilistic reasoning; (II) distinguishing truth from rational opinion; (III) understanding the differences in use of theoretical/mathematical models in natural sciences and in social sciences.
  • develop competences, in addition to knowledge, through teaching activities inside and outside the classroom, by fostering student-teacher interaction and interaction among students (ability to express their opinions, work in groups and negotiate),  as well as developing problem setting and problem solving skills;
  • develop competences aimed at mastering IT tools and two EU languages, for effective and efficient work in a professional context.

Professional and work opportunities for graduates

Most graduates in Economic and Social Sciences are likely to go on to second-level studies. Nevertheless, they can access the job market directly, typically starting in junior positions in the analysis of micro and macroeconomic systems (e.g. antitrust policies, risk assessment of countries, economic regulations, government policies effects)

Graduates holding the above positions are able to:

  • analyze and interpret the distinctive features and dynamics of the economic system, both domestic and international;
  • contribute to socio-economic analyses, applying the most suitable quantitative methods (mathematical-statistical and econometric) and the appropriate techniques of data management and analysis;
  • address economic phenomena with a multidimensional approach, considering the psychological, organizational and social elements that may affect them.


After earning the Bachelor of Science degree, graduates have the following opportunities:

  • second-level studies;
  • junior positions in national or international institutions dealing with the analysis of the economic system, research centers, financial firms and institutions, consulting firms.

Description of the educational path

The language of instruction of the program is English.
The program is structured into two areas:

  • the first area (of all years of studies, despite being concentrated in the first year) is largely in common with other BSc programs and involves basic training in the economic, quantitative, business and legal fields;
  • the second area charectistic - includes:
  1. basics of logic and critical reasoning in the first year;
  2. micro, macroeconomic and statistical analyzes in the second and third years (in the second year with elements of game theory, public economy, theory of competition and market structure, theory of finance, dealing with the same methodological approach to favor an integrated learning, the third year with elements of international economics, insights into research methods in the field of economics and social sciences, the link between culture, social norms and development).
  3. In-depth studies as part as social sciences in the second and third year (such as cognitive sciences, sociology, and organization theories make it possible to understand the choices of individuals and groups in a market context).

Students can then adapt the last part of the study plan to their individual goals through the activities to be chosen by the students (courses, to be passed in Italy and/or abroad, or courses and curricular internship).

In addition, the study plan also includes:

Description of the educational path

The program is taught in English.
 

The BIEF shares with other Management Bachelor of Science programs part of the curriculum (mainly concentrated in the first three semesters) paying particular attention to the international perspective.

From the fourth semester BIEF differs from other Bachelor of Science programs:

  • a part of the study plan is the same for all BIEF students and is characterized by the development of issues related to the internationalization of enterprises and financial institutions, international economics, business law and comparative European perspective and international development of quantitative and qualitative studies in comparative perspective.
  • a part of the study plan is instead differentiated according to the major chosen (economics or finance), and is characterized by major compulsory courses as well as courses chosen from related disciplines of the path. In fact, students can then adapt the last part of the study plan to their individual interests through the activities of their choice (courses to be passed in Italy and/or abroad or curricular internships).


The study plan also provides for:
 

  • activities to develop IT skills
  • Two EU languages other than the mother tongue of the student. The Italian is compulsory for students not Italian native speakers
  • Seminars for the development of behavioral skills and interpretation of the current competitive environment in relation to the role of companies in the economic and social context
  • Final paper

  • activities to be chosen by the student (laboratories to in-dept study arts, culture and communication, courses to be passed abroad, internship);
  • activities to develop IT skills;
  • two EU languages different from the student’s native language. For the Italian class group, English is mandatory for all students who are not English native speakers; for the English class group, the Italian is mandatory for students who are not Italian native speakers;
  • seminars to develop behavioral skills (to give students the know-how to improve public speaking ability, plan and organize their work, work in groups and develop a leadership attitude);
  • final paper.

Educational objectives

The Bachelor of Science in International Politics and Government (BIG) has the following specific objectives:


1) provide strong grounding in political, economic and sociological studies as well as in the quantitative field to allow the understanding of economic, political and social dynamics (at national and international levels) to be governed by institutions;


2) distinguish the educational path with:

  • a broad and comprehensive preparation focused on political and historical studies, as well as an adequate education in legal studies aimed at the acquisition of the theoretical bases relating to the development and functioning of different political systems and regimes, to ways of formulating and evaluating public policies at national and international levels, to the evolution of relations between countries at national and international levels and to the inner reasons for differences in legal systems among various countries;
  • a specific preparation focused on the study of economic rules and principles applied to political and social phenomena, on reasons for state intervention in the economy and on analysis of how public policies are implemented, with particular attention to mechanisms that facilitate effective and efficient management of the organizations involved;


3) develop competences, beside knowledge, by means of:

  • workshops (interdisciplinary learning activities) that encourage the capacity to understand socio-political issues from different standpoints;
  • seminars to develop negotiation and mediation skills, as wells as marketing research skills applied to public policy;
  • standard courses taught in innovative ways that encourage student-teacher and student-student interaction (capacity to put forward one’s opinions, to work as a group, to set and solve problems);
  • compulsory Exchange Program (one term abroad) to facilitate integration into international contexts.


4) develop competencies aimed at mastering IT tools and two EU languages, for effective and efficient operation in a professional context.

Professional and work opportunities for graduates

The majority of BIG graduates are likely to go on to graduate studies. Nevertheless, they can access the labor market directly, typically playing junior roles in the analysis, evaluation and implementation of public policy; for instance:

  • junior consultant, junior researcher and junior policy professional in the analysis and evaluation of public policy
  • junior staff member in the management team of local, national, international and supranational institutions (e.g. municipalities, ministries, the European Commission, the United Nations)
  • junior project manager in the field of international cooperation and NGOs, or for companies operating in strongly regulated sectors (e.g. energy, environment, mass media).
Last change 01/06/2017 08:00

2.1.12.3.
Description of the educational path

The program is taught in English.


BIG is focused on political science, though embedded in an interdisciplinary framework.


The first part of the program is introductory and lays the interdisciplinary foundations through subjects such as mathematics, statistics, economics, political science and sociology, and through a seminar that deals with marketing research skills for public policy.


The second part gives space to political science and economics. This specialization is the distinctive feature of the program and aims at the understanding of:

-political dynamics at national and international levels (International Relations, History of Political Institutions, Political Economics, Media and Political Communication);

-how public policies are formulated, implemented and evaluated (Public Economics, Public Governance, Policy Evaluation);

-the internal working of public institutions (Management of International and National Institutions, Accounting and Financial Statement Analysis);


-how laws are regulated at European and international levels (Comparative Public Law, International and European Union Law);


-socio-political phenomena from a historical perspective (Global History, History of Political Institutions);

Moreover, students are stimulated to develop problem-solving skills by mediating and negotiating different positions and points of view (Negotiation Skills).


The third part of the program allows students to customize their study plan, according to their individual goals, by choosing from a selection of activities (courses, workshops and curricular internship). At least one of the activities must be chosen among 5 themed workshops on issues closely related to studies of political science and public policy.


The study plan also includes:

  • a compulsory semester of study abroad in one of the Universities in partnership with Bocconi
  • activities to develop IT skills
  • two EU languages different form the student’s mother tongue
  • a final paper.

   

For first-year 2017-2018 enrollment in Bachelor of Science programs taught in English, the mandatory language requirement of English language proficiency of at least level B2 (Common European Framework of Reference) must be met. Options to meet the requirement are as follows:

Notes:

Modules

  • code 30319 ‘Quantitative methods for social sciences - module 1 (Mathematics)’ and code 30320 ‘Quantitative methods for social sciences - module 2 (Statistics)’ are respectively the first and the second module of the course code 30318 ‘Quantitative methods for social sciences’;
  • code 30322 ‘Law - module 1 (Comparative public law)’ and code 30323 ‘Law - module 2 (International and European law)’ are respectively the first and the second module of the course code 30321 ‘Law’;
  • code 30325 ‘Introduction to economics - module 1 (Microeconomics)’ and code 30326 ‘Introduction to economics - module 2 (Macroeconomics)’ are respectively the first and the second module of the course code 30324 ‘Introduction to economics’;
  • code 30328 ‘History - module 1 (Global history)’ and code 30329 ‘History - module 2 (History of political institutions)’ are respectively the first and the second module of the course code 30327 ‘History’.


Courses divided into modules are officially passed (and can be recorded in the student academic career and certified) only after passing both modules’ examinations. The final grade is the weighted arithmetic mean of the two marks. Weights are courses’ credit points.

The mean is rounded up if decimals are equal or higher than 5, rounded down if they are lower than 5. Credit points and grades earned for the single modules passed are 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.


Foreign languages and computer skills

Detailed information on foreign language paths and computer skills can be found in "Foreign Languages and Computer skills". In particular, first foreign language choice for native English-speaking students is made following the rules in paragraph "Method of choosing foreign languages".

Moreover, BIG students are offered a short Excel crash course during the Welcome Week, in order to enable them to reach the minimum level of knowledge needed to understand the topics covered in the Computer skills course.


Exam sequence

Informtion on exam sequence i.e. when must exams bust be taken before others are specified in the chapter on Exams


Electives and internship
The positioning of elective courses and internship in the I or in the II semester is merely a suggestion. Students can choose how to allocate these activities along the two semesters.

In accordance with the educational objectives of the program and of the ministerial tables (L-36, Political science and International relations) the program structure may be subject to variations decided by the Academic Bodies.

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 of Science programs. An elective course may be replaced by a curricular internship. For further information on choices see "Choice of elective courses".
