Located in the northern region of the country with over 5 million residents from all over Italy and the world beyond, Milan constitutes the largest urban area in the country, and the fifth largest in the entire European Union. Because it also hosts Italy’s stock exchange, Milan has evolved into the country’s most important city of business and finance, which plays a big role in its wider global influence in areas such as entertainment, fashion, arts, and media as well.

Earning your degree abroad in Milan will be the opportunity to explore every facet of this large and diverse city, and carve out any life for yourself away from home that you can imagine. While you’re not busy with your studies, take advantage of the city’s expansive public transportation network (the ATM) to subway, bus, or train all over the metropolitan area, and to nearby destinations around Italy and southern Europe as well.

While culture shock might set in upon first moving to earn your degree abroad in Milan, soon enough you will fall in love with the stimulation and people that make Milan one of the finest cities in all of Europe. Make an effort to branch out to locals, and to do and see as much as you possibly can during your time abroad!
