Recognizing the importance of international students as a fundamental instrument for the internationalization of the Country, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation - Directorate General for Public and Cultural Diplomacy, the Ministry of University and Research, ITA – Italian Trade Agency, and Uni-Italia, within the framework of the “ Invest Your Talent in Italy” Program, will award a number of scholarships, for the academic year 2023-2024, in favor of international students interested in attending higher education courses in Italy. Scholarships are awarded for courses of Master’s degree (Laurea Magistrale or Master universitario) at Italian Higher Education Institutes (state-owned institutions or institutions legally recognized by the relevant State authorities) that are part of the “Invest Your Talent in Italy” Program.

The program also includes a mandatory internship at selected Italian companies, which are partners of the initiative. The grants that will be awarded derive from an express will of the Italian government manifested through this call and, when applicable, from international understandings/agreements. The list of the post-graduate courses under this Program is available at the following page: https://investyourtalentapplication.esteri.it/SitoInvestYourTalentApplication/corsi.asp

The Program, which aims to promote the internationalization of the Italian academic system as a center of excellence and to stimulate synergies between universities and businesses, allows young foreign talents to get their specialization in Italy and to start a working experience in the Italian companies that are part of the Program.
