About University of Pavia
Founded in 1361 by Emperor Charles IV, the University of Pavia (Università degli Studi di Pavia — UNIPV) is one of the world's oldest academic institutions and a premier public research university in Italy. Located in the picturesque, student-centric city of Pavia just 35 km south of Milan, UNIPV is celebrated for its unique collegiate system modeled after Oxford and Cambridge, comprising 16 historic university colleges (collegi, including the renowned 16th-century Almo Collegio Borromeo and Collegio Ghislieri) that provide an intellectually vibrant residential campus experience. UNIPV boasts an extraordinary scientific heritage, having counted among its luminaries Alessandro Volta (inventor of the electric battery), Camillo Golgi (Nobel laureate in Medicine for neuroanatomy), and Gerolamo Cardano. Today, UNIPV delivers world-leading international programs in English, notably Italy's pioneering 6-year English-taught medical degree (Medicine and Surgery: Harvey Course at Policlinico San Matteo), specialized AI and data science tracks, and globally acclaimed master's degrees in Civil Engineering for Risk Mitigation (ROSE/HYRIS with IUSS Pavia), Electronic & Industrial Automation Engineering, Molecular Biology, and International Business & Entrepreneurship (MIBE).
