University of Padua

At the University of Padova the past is the source not only of our traditions but of our motivation and our determination to innovate. We continue that same tradition of freedom in scientific experimentation that brought here the most distinguished scholars and students of Europe and led to some of the most important discoveries ever made in the fields of medicine and astronomy, discoveries that fully justify Padova’s reputation as “nursery of arts”.

The University of Padova is one of Europe’s oldest and most prestigious seats of learning; it is a multi-disciplinary university that aims to provide its students with both professional training and a solid cultural background. A qualification from the University of Padova is a symbol of having achieved an ambitious objective, one that is recognised and coveted by both students and employers alike. The University of Padova offers its potential students a wide range of first cycle, second cycle and single cycle degrees, as well as a vast array of Postgraduate courses. Although Padova is where the vast majority of teaching takes place, a number of off-campus sites are located in the towns around Veneto.
