Supplementary Activities

Bocconi University offers students supplementary activities designed to enhance their cultural understanding and complement the degree program requirements.

Successful participation in these activities allows students to obtain a certificate of participation.

Supplementary activities offered by the University include:

  • IT courses organized by the IT Education Center;
  • language courses organized by the Language Center: www.unibocconi.eu/languagecenter;
  • courses on databases and citation organized by the Library: lib.unibocconi.it/*eng;
  • interdisciplinary courses for students to enrich their cultural backgrounds, discover new interests and delve into current events on topics other than economics and law, which are part of the Sapere a Tutto Campo program, organized by Campus Life: www.unibocconi.eu/interdisciplinarycourses;
  • courses to develop personal skills organized by Campus Life - Counseling and Self-Empowerment: www.unibocconi.eu/counseling.

The full range of supplementary activities for 2021/2022 is published in September (before the start dates of any activity chosen). More detailed information including programs and calendars will be released on the Bocconi website in the sections of the services which offer these activities.

For students enrolled in Bachelor of Science programs, participation in supplementary activities is optional and is governed by general instructions, as follows:

  • sign-up application procedure*: through the yoU@B student Diary in accordance with sign-up methods defined by the service offering the activity, about one month before the start of the course;
  • assigning courses*: for each study program, sign-up applications are accepted in the order of chronological sign-ups received. Students who are admitted/not admitted to attend these activities will receive a personal online message sent to their yoU@B student Diary;
  • attendance: compulsory for at least 75% of teaching sessions and usually checked through the online Attendance procedure by the teacher in class, in order to obtain the certificate of participation; online courses, if offered, also have mechanisms for registering attendance;
  • evaluation: is carried out by instructors according to the assessment methods discussed in class (the faculty member may require a final written report) but is subordinate to the compulsory 75% attendance and the active participation in class;
  • period of study: courses are held during teaching periods and on specific dates which will be finalized before the sign-up period begins;
  • duration: depending on the chosen activity.

Successful participation in these activities, certified by the teacher, allows students to obtain a certificate of participation.

*For aspects regarding sign-up and assigning courses, some activities organized by Counseling and Self-Empowerment are exempt. These courses have different sign-up and assigning courses methods, which are described on the Bocconi website (www.unibocconi.eu/counseling).
