Study in Italy... study at UniCa

There are many great reasons to choose Italy as your study destination. Italy speaks many languages—not only its renowned languages of art, architecture, design, and fashion, but also those of research, science, and innovation.
By choosing to study in Italy, you’ll have the opportunity to learn and grow within a rich cultural, academic, and social environment.
As part of its commitment to international education, the University of Cagliari reserves a number of places in its degree programmes specifically for non-EU students.
All international students wishing to enrol at UniCa will find essential details in the Study Manifesto – a comprehensive guide that outlines the University’s academic offerings and the availability of places for foreign students. It also includes specific information for Chinese students enrolled in the Marco Polo project.
For further details on the procedures applied at the national level, please consult:
• the website portal: Study in Italy
• the official site of the Italian Ministry of University and Research (MIUR) – Information on higher education in Italy for foreign students.

Below, you will find further information on enrolment procedures, tuition fees, and degree programmes offered at our university. We look forward to welcoming you to the UniCa!
