Milan Summer - Business

Program Overview

Experience Milan like a local student this summer, in one of Europe's iconic hubs for global business and finance. What better place to bolster your business studies than in a city that’s at the forefront of innovation and entrepreneurship—home to world-renowned companies like Giorgio Armani, Bugatti, and Pirelli?

This program offers the best of both worlds: enroll in a hands-on course with a focus in Finance and Business at our state-of-the-art IES Abroad Milan Center, taught by local faculty. Later in the term, you’ll join Italian and international students for the summer session at Bocconi University, taking a course at one of the world’s premier business schools. Your coursework will come to life during visits to local companies, where you can gain an insider’s perspective on the Italian business mindset.

Beyond the classroom, you’ll embark on field trips to the picturesque Italian Lakes and Riveria and join in on cultural events hosted by the Center or local students. Each field trip and cultural event is carefully curated to deepen your understanding of Italy's rich heritage and what makes it a renowned center of culture, cuisine, and commerce.

Student Life

We strive to make sure you feel safe, cared for, and at home while you’re away from home. Whether it’s the orientation program that makes you feel prepared, your housing that is well-located and comfortable, the cultural events that make it easy and fun to meet other international and local students, or the field trips and walking tours that take you to places tourists don’t usually see—we’re all about our student service.
