A welcome from the Rector

Dear international students,

Welcome to the University of Cassino! We are thrilled to have you with us and hope that your stay in Cassino will be pleasant, fruitful, and unforgettable.

The University of Cassino is a public institution with a strong and ever growing international orientation and community. Our main goal is to provide our international students with a stimulating learning environment, and to offer them a robust education which will contribute to the practical and theoretical aspects of their professional lives.

We have been receiving students from all over Europe and the rest of the world since 1995, when the Erasmus program was first established. Since then, the University of Cassino has been committed to the creation of the European area of higher education in accordance with the guidelines of the Bologna process. In fact, through the mobility of students, faculty and staff members as well as through the internationalization process of our degree programs, our university has created an international dimension based on excellence and innovation, both fundamental elements of the education experience.

We are proud to introduce you the ECTS guide for the academic year 2009-2010. We believe strongly that this guide will help you navigate through our degree programs, and to know and take advantage of all of the services and facilities that our institution has to offer. We also hope that this guide will be an useful tool for you, before, during and after your stay in Cassino.

Thank you for choosing the University of Cassino as your host institution. May your stay here be stimulating, inspiring, and exciting and may Cassino become your home away from home.

Ciro Attaianese, Rector of the University of Cassino
