It also offers a higher professional & research-oriented education for managing and leading technical development for major companies and enterprises, at national as well as European/International level.
The general objective is the education of researchers and experts in the innovative aspects related to the area of Civil and Environmental Engineering.
The University of Florence dates back to the Studium Generale set up by the Florentine Republic in 1321. It has had very famous scholars (Galileo Galilei) and professors as well as the two most recent Italian Prime Ministers (Giuseppe Conte and Mario Draghi). Only in 1923 however, the University acquired its actual name and was transformed into a modern comprehensive university, with its 21 Departments and 10 Schools.
The Unifi offers 127 Bachelor's Degrees 57 Masters's Degrees, 9 Long-cycle degrees, 24 PhD Programs and over 50 specialization schools.
