The University of Milan - Bicocca (Italian: "Università degli Studi di Milano - Bicocca", UNIMIB) is a university located in Milan, Italy.

The University of Milano - Bicocca was officially created in 1998, but did not at that time have an officially nominated teaching staff. Groups of professors and researchers from the same scientific fields chose to come and participate in the project. They were driven by their enthusiasm for the new, and by the chance to broaden academic horizons without having their work undermined by traditional education methods. From the start, this very fertile climate became a unique training ground, which offered something new, even for the most traditional disciplines.

The International University vision

Notwithstanding its short history, the University of Milano - Bicocca plays a significant role in the international scientific community. This becomes quite evident especially if one takes into account that most of the researchers and scientists at Bicocca began or carried out long periods of research at other universities, principally the University of Milan (called "Statale") and Politecnico of Milan.

With academic staff from these particular backgrounds, it is clear that the University of Milano- Bicocca realizes the importance of international research and has quickly embraced European research and training programmes. From the outset the University began to participate in the Socrates Programme by encouraging students and staff of the benefits of participation, as well as developing the possibility of having common curricula with other universities.One comes into contact with the international climate at many different levels. For example: the participation of researchers in international research projects (whether alone or under national research Institutes like INFN and INFM), the hundreds of publications professors and researchers publish in specialized international journals, and the organization of International PHD research programmes in collaboration with foreign universities. Thanks to European Union financing and to University support, students are becoming more and more mobile. They are now graduating and being awarded PhDdegrees in European and foreign universities.
