Multilingualism and internationalism characterise the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano. This young university is located at the crossroads between the Italian and German cultural and economic worlds. The University's premises are in three different cities: Bozen-Bolzano (Economics, Computer Science, Agricultural Science, Engineering and Design), Brixen-Bressanone (Education and Communication Sciences) and Bruneck-Brunico (Tourism, Sports and Event Management). Multilingualism is not seen as an obstacle but as a means to increase awareness and achieve greater success in the twenty-first century, arguably the most complex and diversified ever. Internationalism implies that there are study programmes that serve the local community, but are international in focus, and academic staff who come from many different countries. Currently unibz offers exchange programmes with more than 100 partner universities all over the world.
