Introduction
Bocconi University's School of Law offers, a five-year Integrated Master of Arts in Giurisprudenza [Law] (CLMG) program. The CLMG program is taught in two class groups made up of an average of 140 students each.
The study plan is expressed with credit points. A credit point is the unit of measurement which determines the workload students are required to fulfil. It is assumed that students are adequately prepared from the start to carry out the educational activities required by the degree program. The workload includes both classroom activities (lectures, exercises, seminars) as well as group work and individual study.
Credit points are given for all educational activities which are part of the program requirements.
In accordance with the ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System), on average one credit point is equivalent to 25 hours of work, about 8 of which are spent in the classroom.
The average workload for a full-time student is set at 60 credit points per year, as per agreement.
In order to receive the Integrated Master of Arts in Law degree, students must earn at least 300 credit points.
The credit points assigned to each educational activity are earned when students pass an exam or its equivalent.

Educational Objectives
The Integrated Master of Arts in Law program aims to prepare jurists qualified to operate efficiently in the current economic-social context, which requires not only possession of “traditional” legal knowledge and skills but also an ability to cope with the challenges posed by internationalization and technological development. In particular, the program aims to:
- provide a broad and solid preparation of a legal knowledge foundation in terms of “content” and “methods of critical analysis” both in the areas that make up the “fundamentals” of the program (philosophy of law; history of law, from Roman law to the modern era; private law, constitutional law; comparative legal systems) and in those making up the “supporting structure” of the jurist’s preparation (civil law and civil procedure; business law; tax law; employment law; administrative law; European Union and international law; criminal law and criminal procedure);
- complement basic preparation with quantitative, economic and corporate knowledge so as to enable graduates to interact competently within the economic context in which the modern jurist works; also, to provide qualified computer expertise enabling them to operate by means of cutting-edge tools and techniques;
- provide specialized and advanced preparation in the legal disciplines through exhaustive monographic study of the basic subjects as well as through a broadening of the range of subjects addressed, allowing personalization of the program with majors and elective subjects;
- develop skills in the use of English and a second EU language so as to promote studies therein and for subsequent effective and efficient functionality in a professional context;
- promote the supranational dimension of legal studies, both by the offering of compulsory and elective courses in English on topics of European and international relevance and by giving an incentive to outgoing and incoming students to use their international mobility;
- develop skills (know-how) in addition to knowledge through teaching activities that promote the student’s active participation in the classroom and interaction with the instructor (e.g. case studies, testimonials from qualified representatives of the professional world, etc.), and with seminars for the development of professional skills, as well as through the acquisition of on-the-field expertise (learning by doing) via internships, pro bono legal clinics and moot court competitions

Career Opportunities
The main career opportunities for graduates are:
Lawyer
Role in a work setting
The lawyer provides legal advice and assistance, both in judicial and extrajudicial contexts.Lawyers operate on the mandate of private citizens, businesses, organizations and public or private bodies with the aim of ensuring that the laws in force are applied to solve specific problems of their clients or to defend their interests, also by representing them in the courts.
With reference to consultancy, lawyers provide advice and suggestions on how to exercise and claim clients’ rights: for example, they inform clients about legal obligations, explain the practical application of codes and regulations, and suggest the best actions to be taken in compliance with legal procedures.
With reference to legal assistance, lawyers represent their clients in a court, supporting them before the judge for matters of public or private law: they present evidence and arguments in favor of the assisted party, trying to convince the judging bodies to express a favorable opinion on the client’s position.
To carry out consultancy and assistance activities, the lawyer studies and re-elaborates the law and jurisprudence to correctly prepare the specific case and draws up, if necessary in English, legal documents and opinions.
Skills associated with the role
Having expert knowledge of legal systems (national and supranational), as well as the principles governing the operation of companies, markets and society in general, law graduates can search for what is required to place cases brought to their attention in the proper legislative and case law context. In other words, they can consult legislation, jurisprudential sources and case law (including by means of digital tools) in order to identify not only the legal problems present in a given concrete case but also certain possible solutions, and to do so while placing the issues thus encountered in their proper economic-social perspective.
Furthermore, with the technical skills acquired during the program, law graduates can write drafts of opinions and writs in Italian and English.
Career opportunities
Firms where the profession of Lawyer may be practiced, after completing the traineeship period and passing the national bar exam in accordance with legislative provisions. For purposes of access to the profession, graduates may also enroll in the Law School in order to prepare for the national bar exam. In this phase, as stated in the Code of Conduct for Italian Lawyers, trainees should, however, also continue studying for the qualifying exam.
Notary
Role in a work setting
The notary (public official) draws up the notarial deeds which have the purpose of attributing "public faith" and legal efficacy to significant events from an economic and social point of view. For example, notaries prepare deeds of real estate sale, swaps, mortgages, mortgages, testaments, donations of successions, deeds of corporate and commercial law such as the establishment of new companies, deeds for the establishment of associations, foundations, and non-profit organizations. In addition, the notary: transcribes, records and deposits the notarial deed in public registers, when required by law (for example, the business register); issues certificates, copies, and extracts; collects taxes connected to deeds signed or authenticated on behalf of the State and carries out anti-money laundering checks; archives and maintains the records in computer registers and repositories and transmits them to the district notarial archive.
Skills associated with the role
Graduates possess the legal knowledge and linguistic skills required for providing material support to notaries receiving documents for acts between living persons, wills and company documents. Graduates must therefore have expert knowledge of national and also supranational legal systems, especially when having to interface with matters such as acquisitions and purchases abroad, transnational succession and non-domestic corporate transactions.
Career opportunities
Notary offices where the profession of Notary may be practiced, after completing the traineeship period in a professional firm and passing the competitive exam in accordance with legislative provisions. For the purposes of access to the profession, graduates may also enroll in the Law School in order to prepare for the notary exam.
Magistrate
Role in a work setting
The magistrate (public official) enforces and applies the current state law by conducting a trial in all its phases. Magistrates exercise jurisdictional power, i.e. the power to condemn those who violate the laws (criminal jurisdiction) and to resolve disputes between citizens (civil jurisdiction) or between citizens and the state (administrative jurisdiction). They work individually or in a collegiate context (according to the matter and functions assigned). Magistrates can carry out the activity of Judge and Public Prosecutor: in the first case, they carry out "judicial" activities, that is, they decide on disputes or pronounce on affairs within their competence; in the second case, they carry out "requisitioning" activities, that is, they promote the suppression of crimes by coordinating investigative activities in view of the decisions that the judging bodies must take.
Skills associated with the role
Graduates possess deep knowledge of substantive and procedural law indispensable for the resolution of individual cases and for the drafting of judicial acts (orders, writs, rulings).
Career opportunities
Magistrate at a Public Prosecutor’s Office or a court, after passing the national competitive exam and completing the training period at a public prosecutor’s office or a court. For access to the profession graduates must, as a requirement for participating in the magistrate exam, enroll in the Law School in order to prepare for said exam.
Legal expert
Role in a work setting
Legal experts are confronted daily with many legal aspects in connection with carrying out the activities of a company (whether in Italy or abroad) and/or public service. In other words, they deal with identifying and understanding the legal issues which complex organizations, such as national and international companies and public authorities, must face in order to complete their activities.
Skills associated with the role
Having expert knowledge of legal systems (national and supranational), as well as the principles underlying the operation of companies, markets and society in general, law graduates can place cases brought to their attention in the proper legislative and case law context. Furthermore, owing to their economic-quantitative knowledge, experts can also place legal aspects in connection with business activities and/or public service in the correct economic-social perspective. For such purposes, legal experts can also draft opinions, writs and contracts in Italian and English.
Career opportunities
With companies, public bodies, non-profit institutions, international and supranational organizations as internal counsel or external consultants (both in Italy and abroad).

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 and 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 individual modules passed (even if the exam is not yet registered) will be taken into account for rankings within the University (e.g. Bocconi Scholarship, selection for International Programs, etc.) and they can be viewed by printing the unofficial academic transcript at Punto Blu.
Exam sequence and progress requirements
In order to guarantee that students acquire advanced knowledge, it is essential that they have a solid preparation. Prerequisites are therefore required for some courses. Exam sequence indicates the sequence that must be followed in preparing exams and requires students to pass some exams before sitting for others. For more specific information, please see paragraph 4.13 Exam sequence and progress requirements.
Studying abroad
Bocconi University promotes international mobility among students by activating many study abroad opportunities and initiatives. Details are available in Chapter 2.5 “Studying abroad.”
Program structure
Please note that the positioning of the elective courses in the first or second semester is only an indication; this will depend on choices made by the student.
This educational path was designed for students who have a basic knowledge of English and Computer Science.
For more information, see Foreign Languages and Computer Skills.
The code of the course chosen by the student changes depending on the course chosen when enrolling in the fourth and fifth years.
In accordance with the educational objectives of the program and the ministerial tables, the program structure may be subject to variations decided by the Academic Bodies.

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 and 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 individual modules passed (even if the exam is not yet registered) will be taken into account for rankings within the University (e.g. Bocconi Scholarship, selection for International Programs, etc.) and they can be viewed by printing the unofficial academic transcript at Punto Blu.
Exam sequence and progress requirements
In order to guarantee that students acquire advanced knowledge, it is essential that they have a solid preparation. Prerequisites are therefore required for some courses. Exam sequence indicates the sequence that must be followed in preparing exams and requires students to pass some exams before sitting for others. For more specific information, please see paragraph 4.13 Exam sequence and progress requirements.
Studying abroad
Bocconi University promotes international mobility among students by activating many study abroad opportunities and initiatives. Details are available in Chapter 2.5 “Studying abroad.”
Program structure
Please note that the positioning of the elective courses in the first or second semester is only an indication; this will depend on choices made by the student.
This educational path was designed for students who have a basic knowledge of English and Computer Science.
For more information, see Foreign Languages and Computer Skills.
The code of the major course will be modified depending on the course chosen (see "Majors").
In accordance with the educational objectives of the program and the ministerial tables, the program structure may be subject to variations decided by the Academic Bodies.

Compulsory Courses
The program structure is made up of compulsory courses corresponding to exams which all students must pass. In order to reach the degree program's educational goals and receive the Integrated Master of Arts in Law degree, students must pass the exams related to these courses.
According to current regulations, such educational activities are classified as: "basic", "characteristic" of the degree's field of study and "independently decided upon by the University" (D.M. 25 November 2005).
Compulsory courses, whose credit points and subject areas meet ministerial requirements, are divided into two categories:
- basic compulsory courses, which are the same for all Integrated Master of Arts in Law program students;
- compulsory courses included in the second/third year, that can be chosen alternatively by the student;
- advanced compulsory courses (a.c. - advanced courses), positioned in the fourth and fifth years of studies, which expand on topics dealt with in the basic courses taken in the first years of the program. Each advanced course has a specialized profile related to each major.
Course profiles are available on the website at www.unibocconi.eu/courses
Detailed programs (course syllabuses) are available online and they are usually distributed by professors on the first days of lectures.

Choice of compulsory courses in the fourth/fifth year for students initially enrolled starting in the 2017-2018 a.y.
During the fourth and fifth year of the program, students must select the compulsory courses chosen by the student:
- 5 compulsory courses chosen by the student in the fourth year;
- 2 compulsory courses chosen by the student in the fifth year.
For each compulsory course chosen by the student, students have three alternative choices that are part of the three following tracks (no longer available):
- Business Lawyer
- International and European Regulation and Policy Making
- Litigation and Arbitration
Students can freely choose from among courses belonging to the same track or courses belonging to different tracks.
The choice of courses belonging to one track gives the student specialized skills related to the track itself.

Elective Courses
Students must select elective courses in order to complete the program requirements regarding activities chosen by the student. An elective course is worth 6 credit points.
Course profiles of the elective courses are available on the website at www.unibocconi.eu/courses.
The detailed profiles of the courses (course syllabuses) are available online and in any case are usually distributed in class by the faculty when the course starts.
Before choosing their electives students should consult the table of "Incompatible courses". This table indicates the courses that cannot be chosen together in the same study plan because their course programs are either exactly or partly similar.
The exams related to electives can be taken at universities abroad as part of the programs offered by the International Relations Service. The criteria and credit approval procedure is indicated in "Credits for Exams Passed at Universities Abroad".

Knowledge assessment and recording in the academic transcript
Knowledge may be assessed through an internal exam or recognition of a language certificate. In both cases:
- the grade will be recorded as a score out of thirty and will be included in the calculation of the Grade Point Average (GPA);
- the level of competence acquired is mentioned in the exam report and in the student’s transcript;
- students must pass the first year language exam in order to sit the second year exam.
After passing the internal exam, a certificate can be completed at a later date, but the certificate cannot be recorded in the student's transcript. However, after a certificate for a specific language is recorded on the transcript, the internal exam can no longer be taken.
An exemption from the legal English curricular exam (first language – second year) can also be requested, i.e. the grade for general English (first year), completed through recognition of a certificate only if at the level of C1 general or C2 provided that it is still valid, therefore obtained no more than three years before submission of the application for exemption (two years for TOEFL and IELTS if taken on or after 1 September 2019, according to the provisions of the certifying body).

Bocconi internal exam
The assessment method consists of a Bocconi exam focused on assessing four skills, in line with international certifications:
- Reading comprehension
- Writing skills
- Listening comprehension
- Speaking skills
Students can sit the exam (“general” mode) as from the end of second semester (after the end of the teaching period: May).
5 exam sessions are scheduled, during the following periods:
- May-June
- June-July
- late August-September
- October
- January-February
The exam consists of two linked parts:
- written (focused on writing, reading, listening)
- oral (focused on speaking).
Please note that:
- in order to sit for the exam, students must register through the exam session booking tool in the yoU@B student diary (one single registration, valid for both written and oral parts: students that register for and pass the written part will automatically be registered for the oral part);
- both written and oral parts have to be taken in the same exam session;
- the final grade is the result of the sum of the two grades (written grade+ oral grade).
Further details are available in the course syllabus posted on BBoard.
Regarding the level of the exam:
- for general English - first year and for the second language, Bocconi internal exams are organized for the minimum exit level only;
- the only exception is for legal English - second year: in this case, the internal exam is available at both B2 legal and C1 legal level (although the minimum exit level is B2 legal) and students are allowed to choose their exit level when registering for the exam, regardless of the level of the course attended.

International certifications recorded instead of the internal exam
Recording a certificate in the academic transcript as an alternative to the internal exam can be completed for the first language or other languages.
For the first language:
- for B2 general: it can only be recorded as a first year exam;
- for B2 legal/business, C1or C2, the student can choose to record it as:
- a first year exam;
- a first and second year exam;
- a second year exam only
For all languages:
- exams can be recorded on the transcript starting in the first year (therefore even before the first internal exam session for which the student could register);
- credits for the first language - first year shall be calculated in the number of credits required for enrolling in the second year, only if the certificate is submitted by 13 July 2022;
- in order for it to be recorded in the transcript, students must submit the certificate to the Language Center (see submission methods at page www.unibocconi.eu/languagecenter, 'Language Certification Recognition' section) and do not need to register for the Bocconi internal exam.
International certifications can be recorded in the academic curriculum provided that they are:
- officially recognized by the Language Center and have been taken at an officially recognized test center in Italy or abroad;
- equal to or higher than the minimum exit level requirement;
- submitted to Language Center for recording within 3 years after sitting the international certification exam (2 years for the TOEFL and - for certifications taken starting on Sept 1st 2019 - for IELTS as well, according to the provisions of the certifying agency);
- submitted by the student: only original certifications or statement of result (with stamp and signature of the certifying agency) are allowed for submission;
- verifiable by the University.
NB: Please note that for some certificates, the Language Center must be authorized to view the results in order to verify the authenticity of the certificate. Authorization must be requested before sitting the exam. If this authorization is not provided, the necessary verification operations cannot be completed and, as a result, the certificate submitted by the student will not be taken into consideration.
The certification can be completed during the program at Bocconi or date back to high school studies, provided that it is still valid when submitted to the Language Center.
The level and typology (general, legal, business) will be recorded in the academic curriculum as stated by the certifying agency on the international certification.

Curricular Internships
The Integrated Master of Arts in Giurisprudenza [Law] (CLMG) allows students to include an educational experience of an internship/apprenticeship/training (hereinafter internship) or similar activity, worth 6 credit points, in their study plans. As an alternative to an internship, students can enter an elective course only.
Students may participate in other internship experiences (not worth credit points) during the program or after graduation, which do not have curricular value and for which the information in the following paragraphs and sections does not apply: Duration, Positioning, Internship Recognition, Activities Similar to Internships and Recognition.
In compliance with the same characteristics of curricular internships (see chapter 2.4.1. Characteristics of Curricular Internships), a second experience can be completed worth 6 credits, which will be recorded as an additional internship (see 2.4.4. Internship Recognition). The first internship completed that complies with the characteristics of a curricular internship shall be recorded in the study plan within 300 CPs. Students therefore cannot choose which of the two experiences will be recognized within 300 CPs (see “Program Structure”).

Activating an Internship
In order to activate an internship, its must be formalized, i.e. governed by a document that regulates its aims and content. This document is the Internship Agreement, and it contains the internship’s training project.
Activation requires the following steps:
- As the sole promoter of curricular internships, the University prepares all the necessary legal documentation, checks the quality of the training project, and provides insurance coverage.
- Once the student (hereinafter, trainee) has been selected and the internship details have been agreed, the company fills out the internship document (entering information and content) on JobGate, by the Monday preceding the start of the internship. Internships always start on a Monday. The information relating to the internship will be visible by the trainee on JobGate, in the area “My Internships” of the yoU@B Diary, so that he/she can check that the content agreed upon by with the company during interviews are coherent with the specified content. The confirmation is valid as internship acceptance.
- The Internship Office checks the training project and, after checking the coherence and its quality in accordance with current laws, confirms the internship. The University can negotiate the content and conditions of the internship with the company and, in case of no agreement, may refuse to start the internship.
- Before starting the internship, the student must:
- request advance authorization from the University and wait until it has been granted;
- should watch the course “Internship...Let’s Go!” available under Extracurricular Courses on the Bocconi BBoard website.
- On the first day of the internship, the company downloads the internship document from JobGate and it is signed by the trainee along with a company legal representative or delegated party. The original document, with a duty stamp when required (duty stamp at the expense of the company), is promptly sent by the company to the Internship Office so it can be signed by the University.During the health emergency period due to Covid-19, as an exception, the signed document can be sent in the form of a scan to the Internship Office through the Help&Contact procedure. After the emergency period, an original copy of the document must be sent to the Internship Office.
- The trainee must ensure that the company sends the original copy of the document to the University. If it is not returned, the internship cannot be considered valid. The internship document, completed with all signatures, is uploaded on JobGate in the area “My Internships - Attachments” by the University to be used by the company and by the trainee.
To activate an internship outside Italy, it also needs to be formalized through an Internship Agreement, in compliance with the procedure described above.
However, such internships can also be run with an internship contract between the trainee and the company or another document demonstrating practical educational experience according with the local laws where the internship experience is held. Such documentation must be sent along with a description of the internship activities and contact information for the company tutor by the trainee at least three weeks before the start of the internship to the Internship Office through the procedure on the website Career Service > Internships . Experiences without such documentation that is not submitted by the deadlines described above cannot be assessed or recognized as an internship.
For internships completed outside Italy, student trainees must verify with the company regarding the methods for obtaining, if requested, the appropriate visa and any other required documents so that the internship can be carried out in compliance with the law of the host country. If documentation from the University is also needed to support the visa request, the trainee can make reference to:
- the cert@B procedure for official certifications;
- the Internship Office (through the Help&Contact procedure) for any ad hoc documents (see paragraph 4.8 “Certifications and Documents”).
For internships completed outside Italy, the trainee must:
- view the “Bocconi Students Travel Risk Policy” (available on the yoU@B Diary);
- sign the “Student Responsibility Declaration” document on JobGate. With this document, the student declares to be aware that the University cannot ensure the security and solvency of the institution and the country in which he/she has freely decided to carry out the internship;
- comply with the measures for mitigating risk suggested in the Travel Risk Policy. It is the student’s responsibility to take out healthcare insurance through a suitable international medical policy valid in the country where the internship will be completed for the entire duration of the stay, in particular in counties not covered by the European Health Insurance Card.
Students can also refer to International SOS to receive assistance in the areas of health, safety, logistics and legal issues in emergency situations.
For some typologies of internships the trainee and the company tutor are invited to fill out the mid-term evaluation form, indicatively one and a half months after the start of the experience. In the “My Internships” area of the yoU@B Diary, the trainee can view form filled out by the company tutor and can decide whether to authorize the tutor to view the completed form.
Shortly before the end of the internship, the following end-of-internship documents are required for validation purposes:
- Evaluation form filled out by the student via the yoU@B student Diary;
- Evaluation form from the company tutor filled out on JobGate. The evaluation by the company tutor includes the skills acquired.
The student has the responsibility to make sure that the tutor has filled out his/her form. All end-of internship documents are available starting two weeks before the end of the internship and must be completed promptly.
At the end of the internship and upon request of the trainee, the company must issue an internship certification.

Internship recognition (advance authorization and final validation)
All internship experiences must be approved in advance so as to guarantee the quality and consistency with the educational objectives of the Program the student is enrolled in. Internships are validated when completed so that credit points can be allocated.
In order to obtain recognition of the internship, please follow the instructions below.
Advance authorization
- Before the beginning of the experience and after viewing the internship on JobGate and confirming it, the student must request advance authorization, by accessing the area ‘My internships’ and clicking on ‘Request advance authorization’.
- The request is automatically made viewable to the Program Director or his/her delegate who can give his/her approval, reject it or, for more information, ask the student to schedule a meeting.
- The student views the request outcome on JobGate in the ‘My internships’ area.
Note: without advance authorization it will not be started as a curricular internship.
Final validation
- Once the internship has ended, the Program Director views the evaluation forms filled out by the trainee and company tutor (end-of-internship documentation). The evaluation forms will be analyzed carefully. If more information is needed, a meeting with the student may be scheduled.
- Once final recognition has been obtained from the Director, the student can check the credit points recording in his/her academic career via Punto Blu.
The University will carry out checks during the student’s internship in order to verify that the internship is actually taking place. In case the student is repeatedly missing, the internship will be annulled. The internship annulment communication will be forwarded to the student, the Program Director and the host company. In case of behavior contrary to the Honor Code or University regulations during the experience, ì the Internship Office may ì report students to the Disciplinary Board.
- The Study Planning Office (Academic Services) records the internship credits by the deadline for the study plan completion set for graduation. Generally, the internship needs to be completed by that date.
Uncompleted internships which have met the minimum duration of time indicated above may still be recognized in the student's academic career. The recognition is possible only if:
- the student has to graduate before the end of the internship.
- the student applies for a scholarship.
In these cases, at least two weeks before the deadline set for the completion of the study plan or the other deadlines indicated above, the student must:
- make an explicit request for recognition for early ending of the internship via the Help&Contact procedure;
- complete the end-of-internship documents within the time needed to record the internship in the student’s academic career.

Postponement, suspension, withdrawal/interruption
Postponement
Before the end of the internship, a postponement may be requested for a limit of 6 months of the duration of the internship. The Internship Office may grant a postponement after carefully evaluating the reasons for the request and only if the company demonstrates that more time to reach the educational objective for the complexity of the project is needed. The postponement period must be communicated in advance by the company to the Internship office through JobGate in the “My Internships” area - Internship Duration Changes, and the trainee must access the portal to confirm the postponement entered.
Suspension
In agreement with Bocconi University, a period of temporary suspension of the internship experience of a maximum of 30 days can be admitted (e.g. company closure, holiday), to be recovered at the end of the internship if this affects the minimum duration of a curricular internship. This period must be communicated in advance by the company to the Internship Office through the JobGate in the “My Internships” area - ‘Internship Duration Changes’ if more than 3 consecutive working days are reached.
Withdrawal/Interruption
Without serious and/or justified reasons or reasons of force majeure, there will be limitations for accessing a new internship (a new internship cannot be started before one month from the date of interruption of the previous internship). Withdrawals, with related reasons, must be immediately communicated by the trainee in the “My Internships” area - ‘Internship duration changes’. Interruptions, with related reasons, must be immediately communicated by the company on JobGate in the “My Internships” area - ‘Internship duration changes’. The trainee must then access the portal and confirm the interruption entered.
For curricular internships, early interruptions that are not authorized in advance by the Internship Office, even if the requirement of the minimum duration has been met, the internship may not be recognized. Early authorization is given on the basis of assessment of all internship characteristics, including the duration.
Through the Help&Contact procedure, the student must request authorization for the internship interruption from the Internship Office, who will answer the request.

Activities similar to internship and recognition
Though internships are the principal and priority educational activities for students to put their studies into practice, as an alternative to internships, other activities defined as “similar activities” can also be recognized. These include:
1. Specialized work experiences which have contracts that are different from those of internships. For example, temporary and permanent work positions. The rules already set for internships regarding duration, positioning and channels for finding such opportunities are applied to these experiences. The Internship Office will assess the actual educational value of the experience in relation to the student’s study path. The In order to request recognition students must take the following steps:
- at least three weeks prior to the start of the experience, students must send - via the procedure available on the website Career Service > Internship - a copy of the contract signed with the company. The minimum information that must be on the contract, or provided additionally if not included, can be verified online.
- The Internship Office, having verified that the experience is in line with the student’s study path and the University’s quality standards, enters the information relating to the activity similar to an internship on JobGate and the student must request advance authorization, by entering ‘My internships’ area - ‘Training Project’ and clicking on ‘Request internship recognition’;
- At the end of the minimum of the duration for the internship recognition, students must upload, on ‘My internship’ in the ‘Attachments area’, a short report including information on the type of experience and a declaration by the company certifying the presence of the student at the company in the period specified on the request of recognition. After this has been completed, students should inform the Internship Office through Help&Contact on yoU@B.
- After appropriate assessment, the Program Director will proceed with the final recognition in accordance with the procedure specified in paragraph 2.4.4. Internship Recognition.
2. Research field project. Activity promoted by a faculty member where the student is involved exclusively in a research activity to be carried out at a research center or a Department at the University. Assuming that this activity is considered a part-time experience, the minimum duration for internship recognition is 16 weeks and the maximum is 6 months. In the event of internships with a start date before 31/12/2022, the minimum duration is 11 weeks. A research field project can be completed only as a curricular activity for credit; it cannot be activated in any other form. The procedure for authorization and recognition is the same as for internships (see 2.4.4. Internship Recognition) except for a final report on the activity carried out with papers or reports to be uploaded to JobGate at the end of the experience.

Studying Abroad
Depending on the evolution of the epidemiological situation, the way in which international mobility programs are carried out in the 2021-2022 academic year may undergo changes. Please refer to the indications published on the website http://www.ir.unibocconi.eu/ for further details.
Internationalization at Bocconi University has been a strategic priority pursued since 1974, the year in which the first international agreements were put into place. Over the years, these programs have developed an extensive network of affiliations and exchanges with prestigious academic and cultural institutions all over the world, including the recent formation of a special network of partner institutions in the field of law. Constant collaboration between Bocconi and foreign universities on research and joint teaching projects provide Bocconi students and teaching staff with invaluable international experience also in prestigious networks like Themis -The Joint Certificate in International Business Law- and APELIA - Asia-Pacific and Europe Law Institutes Alliance
Thanks to its network of international affiliations, Bocconi University is able to offer law students opportunities on a global scale.
Study abroad programs:
- Long programs (Exchange, Themis, Double Degree Law, Free-Mover Semester Programs);
- Short programs (Free-Mover Summer, Vis Moot, Telders Moot, European Moot, Hugo Sinzheimer Moot Court Competition, International Commercial Mediation Competition).
The study abroad opportunities promoted by the University are presented in detail during ad hoc initiatives throughout the academic year.

Exchange program
The Bocconi University "Exchange Program" (including the LLP-Erasmus Program) deals with student exchanges under bilateral agreements with many universities around the world, giving students the opportunity to attend courses for which they can receive credit as part of their Bocconi degrees.
There are around 60 Schools of Law included in the network which are specially addressed to the Integrated Master of Arts in Giurisprudenza [Law] and they are some of the most renowned institutions in the field of law.
These agreements are based on reciprocal arrangements that allow students from both institutions involved to complete a period of study abroad without paying extra university fees and tuition to the partner institution. Students are, however, responsible for travel, insurance, board and lodging expenses.
Eligibility and requirements
Students can take the semester abroad just one time during their fourth and fifth years. Therefore students regularly enrolled in the third or fourth year of the Integrated Master of Arts Program can apply.
Students are allowed to enroll in a semester abroad at one of the partner universities only if they pass the selection, which is based on merit and language skills.
The Exchange Program is incompatible with participation in the Themis and Double Degree Law programs and the Free Mover Semester experience. In addition, during the year of participation, the experience is not compatible with the Moots offered.
Application and deadlines
Students are advised to check the application procedures and deadlines on the website www.ir.unibocconi.eu/exchange
Exam recognition
Students can receive credit for a maximum of 5 courses.
