The Globalization Program brings together talented, motivated students in a truly multicultural, international and interdisciplinary environment. The program is open to undergraduate and master’s students registered in any degree programs at one of the Venice International University (Viu) member universities, including the University of Padova.

A set of English-taught courses is available every semester and are recognized for credit. Attendance is compulsory, and the courses focus on three themes:

• Italy - courses that showcase Venetian and Italian life, culture, art and history;

• Cultures of the World - courses that examine the cultures of the world; courses that make the most of the intercultural classroom;

• Global challenges - courses that address current, global issues, preferably from an interdisciplinary perspective.

The program provides a powerful learning experience in which students develop their capacity for critical thinking and creative problem-solving. After the Globalization Program, students are better prepared for graduate and professional study and for careers in new and emerging fields.
