The Department of Law of the University of Ferrara, widely recognized among the leading Italian institutions in its field, is renowned for its strong emphasis on the European and International dimension of its study programme. We are committed to offering our students a wide range of opportunities to include international experiences in their curriculum. Notwithstanding the significant challenges it has posed, the Covid pandemic has only strengthened our belief that this is an essential aspect of our educational offer.
We are in close contact with our extensive network of international partners, and have now fully resumed student and staff mobility programmes. Teaching will be mainly face-to-face in 2023-24.
We look forward to welcoming guest students from all over the world into our historic buildings in the centre of Ferrara. This beautiful renaissance city reverberates with university life and yet enjoys the safety of a small and quiet town; 20.000 students live on its urban campus (out of a population of 130.000 people), with a wide range of services for study, research, practicing sports and having a good time.
Lectures and conferences also give our guests the opportunity to visit our Rovigo campus . Since 2019 the Department has been located in Palazzo Angeli , a prominent historic building at the centre of this historical town, 20 minutes by train from Ferrara.
