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.

Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? Meet the most people that way
Personal comments:
The rooms were small but they were comfortable. The situation was away from all places of interest. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Personal social experience
Describe host city: Students equally interact with the local and student community
Activities, Nightlife: Takes place mostly within the university/student environment Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Personal comments:
many clubs in Milan but the cost of the taxi home was around 50 Euros, or you could hold back for the 1st train in the morning. The Erasmus network did organise plent nights for us so the bus home was available. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
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.
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
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.
