Foundation Programme on Social Sciences

The Foundation Programme is a 2-semesters study program on Social Sciences which allows students with less than 12 years of schooling to fulfill the prerequisites for pursuing a bachelor’s program in Italy and thus in Luiss.  The programme offers introductory courses in economics, law, socio-political studies, and, generally speaking, social sciences and critical thinking. Students will also attend some classes aimed at improving the English language and learning the basics of Italian, together with soft skills labs. The Foundation Programme is delivered on campus and/or with online synchronous classes and is characterized by continuous assessment.
