Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore is Europe’s largest and most important Catholic University. Since its foundation, in 1921, by Father Agostino Gemelli together with a group of Catholic intellectuals, Università Cattolica has granted students not only a solid cultural background and the indispensable professional skills, but also a coherent academic syllabus.

Twelve faculties, almost 100 among undergraduate, graduate and single-cycle degree programmes and a wide range of postgraduate training options furthering the education of a total of 45.000 students summarise Università Cattolica syllabus.

Research is one of the cornerstones upon which Università Cattolica is underpinned. Over 4.500 publications produced each year by professors, researchers, research fellows and doctoral students demonstrate the University’s strong commitment to research.
