The Bachelor's Programme in International Politics, Law and Economics is a three-year English taught programme which offers interdisciplinary education in political science, law, economics, history, and sociology, with a particular emphasis on the political, economic, and legal dimensions of the contemporary international context.
The international and comparative focus which characterises all of the courses taught within this programme aims to enable students to understand and interpret today's global reality, while also allowing them to grasp and critically assess its complexities.
Furthermore, this Programme aims at providing graduates with a sound knowledge of English: students will be able to constantly practice it by attending lectures, actively participating in class (e.g. thanks to exercises and/or other written/oral activities), as well as taking written and oral exams in English.
The Bachelor's Programme prepares graduates to find employment in the following areas: national and regional/local public administrations, including diplomatic missions to foreign countries or international institutions; international organisations; NGOs (e.g. those engaged in humanitarian volunteering activities); centres or associations specialised in the study and analysis of political, social, and economic processes; public and/or private (national or multinational) companies involved in international trade and finance; in the fields of services, cultural heritage, tourism, and communication.

This Bachelor's Programme is designed to provide its graduates with the appropriate knowledge and competences to continue their studies, in Italy or abroad, with a Master's Programme in the fields of Political Science, Law and Economics. The degree in International Politics, Law and Economics allows graduates meeting the curricular requirements to access several Master's Programmes within the Faculty of Political, Economic and Social Sciences of the University of Milan, including those in International Relations (class LM-52 'International Relations') and in Economics and Political Science (classes LM-56 'Economics' and LM-62 'Political Science').
In order to be admitted to the Bachelor's Programme in International Politics, Law and Economics, prospective students must hold an upper secondary school diploma or equivalent qualification obtained abroad after at least 12 years of schooling , and possess an adequate educational background. Indeed, some basic skills are required in the three following areas: language comprehension, general culture, logic and mathematics. These skills are essential to the fruitful participation in this programme, as is a sound knowledge of English (level B2 of the European reference framework).
Pursuant to Article 2 of Law 264/1999, with a view to ensuring high quality education in the light of available resources, the maximum number of students who can enroll in this programme is set at 125, plus a certain number of spots that are reserved for non-EU candidates residing abroad. The admission test will take place on September 5, 2019.
The admission test will serve as a basis for both the selection of candidates and the assessment of their skills in the abovementioned three areas (language comprehension, general culture, and logic and mathematics). In order to be positively assessed in each subject area, candidates must correctly answer at least 50% of the questions. Those candidates who are admitted in the programme despite having correctly replied to a lower percentage of questions in the area of logic and mathematics will be assigned further training requirements (s.c. 'OFA', Obblighi Formativi Aggiuntivi). This means that they will have to attend courses/workshops or consult supplementary materials and pass another test within their first year in the programme. If they fail to do so, they will have to enroll in the subsequent academic year as first-year students and will not be allowed to take second- and/or third-year exams. Further information on these OFA are available online on the website of the Faculty of Political, Economic and Social Sciences.

English OFA

In order to be entitled to sit for the exams included in the degree programme, students are required to certify their knowledge of the English language at the B2 level. This level can be certified in one of the following ways:


· By submitting a language certificate, taken no more than 3 years before its submittal and attesting a B2 or higher level (for the list of the language certificates accepted by the University of Milan, please refer to the website: http://www.unimi.it/studenti/100312.htm). Students can submit their language certificate during the immatriculation procedure or send it to the Language Centre of the University of Milan (SLAM) via Infostudente service.
By submitting a secondary school diploma in a course of study that uses English as primary language. Students can submit a copy of their diploma during the immatriculation procedure or send it to the Language Centre of the University of Milan (SLAM) via Infostudente service.

· By sitting for the Placement Test run by SLAM, during the first year exclusively, from September to December. Should they not pass the Placement Test, students will have to attend the English language courses organized by SLAM. All students who do not have a valid language certificate must sit for the Placement Test. Those students who do not sit for the Placement test by December or do not pass the the test at the end of the SLAM course in one of the 6 attempts granted, will have to get a language certificate outside the University of Milan within the first year of the Bachelor programme.

Italian language test

Furthermore, before graduating, students need to possess a minimal competence in the Italian language. To this end, enrolled students meet with the Programme's tutor who determines whether they need to take a placement test aimed at assessing their knowledge of Italian. Students who hold an upper secondary school diploma from an Italian (or Italian taught) course are exempted from the placement test, as are those who hold a language certificate. In case they do not already have those competences, students will be addressed to take the Italian language amongst the choice of 3-credit courses of Additional language skills.
Course attendance is highly recommended.
