Personal comments
Cinema Lumier; walking the city is very nice and visiting the monuments like Le siete Chiese, or taking an ice-cream in a place close to Via San Felice; Night life is amazing (a bit expensive sometimes) discos like Made in Bo or pubs like Corto Maltese are a very good places. Bologna is very well located to travel all amazing country.

Academic
Course recommendations
The level doesn't seem to change regardless of whether it's a 1st year or a third year course (or an 8th year??). The lecturers treat you like a piece of dung if they ever notice you at all and there seemed to be a great deal of animosity towards English speakers (especially non-American ones who don't pay huge amounts of money for support). Don't rely on the teaching staff to help you in any way and it is nigh on impossible to find anyone who can assist you with any academic questions you may have...in my opinion give up on trying to learn anything (you won't- maybe the meaning of the word bureaucracy) and have some serious fun!!!

Personal comments
It would be nice if they could actually take the trouble to assign you to a supervisor who might actually know something about your course area or the differences between courses and assessment methods in your native country. Oral exams are normal in Italy and most British students are used to a written culture, some assistance would have been good to help us with the transition.
