The Master of Science is taught in Italian (Finanza) and English (Finance); for those attending the program in Italian at least one exam in English must be included in their study plan.
The first part of the study plan includes mandatory courses in the students’ study program as well as seminars for the development of behavioral skills.
The second part of the study plan includes educational activities chosen by the student focusing on specific subject areas, e.g. management of financial and insurance institutions, investment banking, quantitative finance. It is possible to draw from the Bocconi curriculum as well as that of other universities (mostly foreign).
There are also seminars and other educational activities aimed at fostering a wide-ranging culture.
In addition, the mandatory educational activities of the second year program structure include:

- 3-month work experience (internship or similar activity);
