LIUC Università Cattaneo Castellanza (LIUC)

Carlo Cattaneo University, Corso Matteotti 22, 21053 Castellanza, Italy
3.66 / 5 based on 150 reviews.
Description:
The University was founded in 1991 on the initiative of the Industrial Association for the Province of Varese (UNIVA) and was formally recognised by a ministerial decree in October 1991 as an independent, self financing University. It had its first graduates in July 1995.

Since its foundation the University has a 4-year course in Business and Economics, since 1994/5 a 3-year course in Logistics and Production Engineering and since 1998/9 a 4-year course in Law and Economics. 1999-2000 will see the start of a five year course in Engineering Management.

The teaching philosophy of the University is based on the thinking of the Lombard economist, Carlo Cattaneo, who identified the human factor as one of the essential resources for economic development, foreseeing a need which is currently at the centre of the debate on company culture.

Dont chose too many that are all piled in at the end of the semester as I did as the work really piles up when you need to study for exams.

To start all courses at the start of the semester so that the students have less time in the beginning at more time at the end when they want to study and have their last weeks remembered fondly instead of boring and the only thing that anybody did was study

Compared to American universities, the course were very different. Only one exam at the end of the course and block scheduling. In other words class does not meet everyday or even every week sometimes. But I really enjoyed my classes.

I would say chose courses which are based on projects and not written exams. You tend to score better. Do not leave the projects until the last minute though.

Well, do not go here if you are very keen on improving your academic skills. The courses generally were extremely poor, but then of course also very easy! So it surely gives you a lot of time for travelling and to party etc.

Well, the academic level must be higher if LIUC has any interest in being seen as a serious university. I think though that the courses in italian are way better, so if you know italian and want some academic challenge too...choose italian courses. International courses are as I said before...poor.
