Flights!! Although you can claim them back from your LEA, you do have to make the initial payment yourself first and the LEA's are not very prompt about recrediting your account. Also beware at the end of the year of excess baggage charges - they can escalate... Last Tip: Go to IKEA - it is in Casalecchio and a free bus runs from Piazza dei Martiri (I think that's the name) but do go it's great for cheap house stuff and Euromercato is just next door with lots of cheap food.

Travel was very cheap. Food was cheap from the local markets, and a experience in itself! Get a mobile phone asap if you want a decent social life.

Find a shop which sells non perishable goods, and buy pasta, canned food, toiletries from there, then shop at markets for fresh produce. Find out about the "abonnamento mensile" Monthly season ticket for the buses - it may work out cheaper. Get a bike (Via Zamboni is cheap)(and a VERY good lock).

Give parties at your appartment instead of going out in clubs! Learn to know Italian people so you can visit them and have a cheap stay in different parts of Italy!

Because in Italy everything is more expensive then in Serbia, what is understandable considering overall economic situation and standard of living

Check out if your own bank has a deal with any bank of your host country - you may save the withdrawal commission.

Housing is very expensive in Bologna, especially if you live in a single room, like I did. Food is cheaper in Italy and better quality. To use the phone always cost more money than at home because you are charged by the minute. Travel is cheaper because everyone usually travels by train or bus.

Be tight with your money. It can go really fast in a city like Bologna which has so much stuff to offer. Make a budget and stick to it. Then if you have money left over at the end, take a trip.

REVIEWS BY INTERNS AT Università di Bologna
CURRICULAR INTERNSHIP - Public Administration
The internship primarily involved working on a project related to the assessment of public guarantees and the definition of monitoring tools, with a specific focus on supporting export and internationalization of businesses ("SACE Fund" guarantees) and non- performing loan disposal ("GACS") in correlation with specific national and EU regulatory developments and operational tools.
Una bella esperienza
Esperienza sicuramente formativa e multiculturale. Era un'associazione di volontari, quindi i tempi e le modalità del tirocini ho potuto sceglierli io.
Best internship
My tutor was fantastic! She taught me everything I had to know about a laboratory. The activities have been carried out with zeal. I could learn a lot of things.
Apertura a organizaciones internacionales
Excelente oportunidad de aplicar los conocimientos en Estados Unidos.
ABOUT
The University of Bologna is about to celebrate its Ninth Centenary. The Studium at Bologna is thus the oldest in the western world.

The whole history of European universities has been profoundly influenced throughout the centuries by the University of Bologna. Evidence of this may be seen in the fact that many of the most important universities in Europe were established as a result of internal strife within the University of Bologna, or under the auspices of scholars from this University.
