Italy Education
Italy offers more Masters and PhD programs in English than many other European countries. So much so, that 40,000 international students head for Italy each year to enjoy one of the most unique experiences international graduate education has to offer.
Not only will students be able to study in English, they'll be surrounded by history at the same time.

Moreover, institutions like Politecnico di Milano have recognised the essential link
between Masters degrees and the labour market, developing close links with businesses and industrial companies. This allows businesses to recruit those who do not need further training on the job.
Only five years ago the number of programs offered in English was limited, but the demand from international students, and Italians seeking an education in English, has seen many universities convert their taught and research degrees to the world's lingua franca.
