Unique experience First of all: our students develop a strong feeling of belonging to a community, the community of ‘Mibers’. They feel that MIBE is a label, a distinctive mark: a nice one, to wear and recognize. Secondly: because of the unique atmosphere of the University of Pavia, one of the oldest universities in Europe (founded in 1361). The university is also well-known for its students’ accommodation system consisting of 20 students’ residences (the so-called “college”), where thousands of students live, study, and play sports. Furthermore, Pavia is a lovely small medieval town, which feeds that special sense of community, but at the same time offers the opportunity to reach a metropolis like Milan in a very short time (only 35 kilometers away, with an excellent train connection).
