The MSc 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 degree program. The workload includes classroom activities (lessons, exercises, seminars) and individual study.
In accordance with the ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System), on average one credit point corresponds to 25 hours of work for the student; about 8 hours 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, MSc students must have acquired 120 credit points.
The credit points assigned to each individual educational activity are earned when students pass the exam or when their progress is verified in other ways required by the activity.

Educational debits and preparatory courses
Università Bocconi offers preparatory courses specifically designed for first-year students who, during the undergraduate degree program, deal with courses which were not directely related to their MSc program (the lessons are designed to give students an in-depth understanding of first-year courses) . Attendance to the preparatory courses is highly recommended.
For more detailed information, see "Preparatory courses".
Students enrolled in CLG-LS program, who graduated from other universities, are required to resolve any Ministerial and/or Bocconi requirements which were determined when enrolling. Therefore, the student's individual study plan is composed of the 120 credit points needed for the MSc plus those credit points relating to educational debits.
For detailed information check the paragraph "Master of Science in Giurisprudenza [Law] (CLG-LS)", relating to the CLG-LS Program Structure.

They can be classified as: "basic", "characteristic" of the degree's field of study, "similar or complementary to the basic ones or the characteristics ones", with regard to advanced level education for the exercise of highly qualified activity in specific areas, and "independently decided upon by the University" (ex Ministerial Decree 509/99).

Educational activities chosen by students
Elective courses are chosen by students in order to complete their individual study plans, as provided for by the curriculum of studies, the major chosen, from the group of courses offered by the University and/or offered in collaboration with other universities. These courses are part of the educational activities freely chosen by the student (ex Ministerial Decree 509/99). This chapter contains a section concerning each MSc program where students can find the detailed program structure with the number of electives scheduled. Elective courses are generally worth 6 credit points.
The choice of electives must be made at the start of the second year of studies for all programs with the exception of the DES-LS / ESS-LS for which the choice must be made during the first year of the course. The procedure is indicated in "Administrative procedures, regulations and deadlines > paragraph First-year procedures, rules and administrative deadlines.
Before choosing their electives students should consult the "Table of incompatible courses" and the "Table of banned courses" that can be found in the appendix.
The "Incompatible courses 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 "Banned courses table" indicates the courses that cannot be included together in a specific MSc program.
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 Exams > "Credit for exams passed at universities abroad".
The course profiles are available together with specification of the course's instruction language (Italian and/or English) at www.unibocconi.it/courses.

Career opportunities
Students graduating from the IM-LS program pursue careers with an international perspective in mainly three types of companies.
- Large Multinational Firms: in large companies, IM-LS graduates can work in diverse departments and in different roles that require cross-border management. They will work efficiently in multi-cultural teams. Their knowledge on international functional strategies such as global sourcing, international marketing or international finance will give them access to a broad range of career opportunities in multinational corporations.
- Consulting Firms: a number of management consulting projects today aim at helping multinational firms to improve their international strategic positioning and the organizational integration of the network of subsidiaries. The IM-LS program prepares the students for tasks involved in cross-border consulting projects.
- Companies Operating in Symbol-Intensive Markets: the program reflects the unique competences Italian firms are known for on a global scale. Our graduates will be a strong asset for firms competing in industry segments that base their competitive advantage on the symbol creative design and marketing of symbol-intensive products.
- Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs): graduates will be able to take on the role of business development manager, export manager or expatriate manager in a foreign country which contributes to the expansion of the SME in foreign markets. They will be capable of identifying and selecting foreign market opportunities and exploit them through exporting or other market entry modes. Our graduates are prepared to operate as corporate entrepreneurs in foreign countries.
- Research Centres and Educational Institutions: in these organizations, IM-LS graduates can make a significant contribution, due to their systemic and inter-functional knowledge of the firms.
- Government Agencies: the IM-LS program strongly emphasises applied economics and economic policy. The practical study of governments and supranational institutions in world business makes our graduates ideal candidates for positions in governmental agencies.
