Student life

Milan is known as the economic and production capital of Italy and the leading Italian hub for services, finance and industry. Milan is the engine of the country's economy and home to the Italian stock exchange. This cosmopolitan, modern and forward-looking city is world-renowned as a European capital of fashion, design, architecture, finance, publishing, modern art and music. It is deeply rooted in a flourishing past and hosts authentic treasures.

During their stay at Bocconi students will be surrounded by various activities to be a part of and by several places to explore. Bocconi is a truly international community, with outstanding students from more than 90 countries around the world. One main feature is their diversity, in terms of geographic, academic and cultural background: this variety is a great asset and provides a consistent motivation for exchange and debate. Students are what make the Bocconi campus a place to exchange languages, experiences, cultures and ideas to be shared, for personal as well as professional enrichment.

Sports

Bocconi believes that giving you the opportunity to study while also playing sports is essential. This is why it supports the Bocconi Sport Team SSD, the sporting association for all Bocconians, and has also developed a scholarship dedicated to students playing sports at a national and international level, which allows them to pursue academic and athletic pursuits at the same time without
increased costs. But because athletics is not only about playing sports, but also about a culture surrounding it, Bocconi is committed to offering many other opportunities: educational, cultural or debate activities during which you can discuss and capitalize on the experiences, values and economic and management skills developed in the field of sports.
