History and profile

The University Institute for Modern Languages (IULM) was founded by Carlo Bo, poet, literary critic and professor of Spanish and French language and literature and Silvio Baridon, French language and literature professor at Bocconi University, in 1968. It was renamed in 1998, as the IULM University of Languages and Communication, to reflect its teaching of both languages and communication.

IULM University offers six three-year degree courses:

  • Interpreting and Communication
  • Corporate Communication and Public Relations
  • Communication, Media and Advertising
  • Tourism, Management and Territory
  • Arts, Media, Cultural Events

In addition to these three-year undergraduate degree courses, IULM University offers one- and two-year post-graduate degree courses, and also research doctorate schools.

Teaching staff include managers and professionals from media and communication, professional services, business, public administration and cultural organisations. Teaching is done through lectures, classroom activities and case studies, continuous assessment, internships in Italy and abroad and through international student exchanges.
