4 INTRODUCTION What is ECTS? The European Community promotes inter-university co-operation as a means for improving the quality of education to the benefit of students and higher education institutions alike. Student mobility constitutes a primary feature of that co-operation. The LLP Erasmus programme clearly demonstrates that a study period abroad can constitute a particularly precious experience, not only being the best way to discover countries, ideas, languages and cultures different from one's own but also because it is gaining a growing importance in the evolution of university and professional careers. The creation of a single European area in the field of education, where students and teachers can move freely without barriers, goes upon the recognition of the studies undertaken and the qualifications achieved abroad. For this reason ECTS - the English acronym for the European Community Course Credit Transfer System - was born, originally as a master plan within the framework of the previous Erasmus programme, with the aim of promoting academic recognition of studies undertaken abroad. The European Commission decided to include ECTS in the Socrates programme, in particular within Sector I reserved to higher education (Erasmus), given the conclusive effectiveness of the ECTS system. After the first stage planned for a limited application, ECTS is now becoming much more meaningful to the extent of becoming a permanent feature of the European context of higher education. ECTS is above all pursuing transparency, establishing the conditions necessary to bring institutions closer together and broadening the range of choices offered to students. Its application facilitates the recognition of students' academic results through to the use of widely understood standards - credits and grades - as well as a better understanding of the national systems of higher education. ECTS goes upon three basic elements: 1) Information on study plans and student results, 2) Reciprocal agreement (between the participating institutions and the student) and 3) The use of ECTS credits (values representing the working load done by the student). Principal Features of ECTS ECTS is thus founded upon three basic elements: information on study plans and student results, reciprocal agreement (between the participating institutions and the student) and the use of ECTS credits (values representing the workload done by the student). These three basic elements are effective through three fundamental documents: 1) The information brochure, 2) The application form/learning agreement and 3) The transcript of records, as to the studies done. But the essential aspect is that ECTS is activated by the students, the teachers and the institutions which intend to make studying abroad a whole part of the learning experience. Indeed, ECTS does not, in any way, determine the contents, the structure or the equivalence of study programmes. These qualitative aspects must be decided upon directly by the higher education institutions in the moment of setting, either through bilateral or multilateral agreements, the basis for a viable co-operation. The code of good practice proposed by ECTS 4

5 offers the interested parties the tools suitable to pursue transparency and academic recognition. Full academic recognition is a sine qua non condition of student mobility within the framework of the LLP Erasmus programme. Full academic recognition requires the period of study abroad (including exams and other forms of evaluation) to effectively substitute a comparable period of study (including exams and other forms of assessment) in the institution of origin notwithstanding the fact that there may be differences in the contents of the programme. ECTS goes on voluntary use and reciprocal trust at academic level among the participating institutions. Every institution chooses its own partners. Transparency ECTS guarantees transparency through the following instruments: ECTS credits, - a numerical value assigned to a course unit which represent the working load that a student must undertake in order to complete a given course unit. The credits express the quantity of work every course unit requires with respect to the global volume of work necessary to successfully complete a full year's study at the institution, that is: lectures, practical work, seminars, traineeships, research or surveys, personal study - either at home or in the library - together with exams and other forms of student assessment. ECTS is, therefore, based on the overall working load of the student and not merely limited to lecture hours. 60 credits represent the working load for a full academic year's study and, as a rule, 30 credits are equivalent to a semester and 20 credits to a trimester. The ECTS information brochure, which provides useful information to students and personnel about the institutions, faculties/departments, course organisation and structure as well as the individual course units. The ECTS learning agreement, which describes the study plan the student has to follow and indicates the ECTS credits that shall grant upon satisfactory completion thereof. The agreement binds the student to attend the host university's programme as the main part of their higher education, the institution of origin to guarantee the student full academic recognition of the credits obtained abroad and, the host institution to provide the agreed course units to the extent allowed by the academic calendar. The ECTS transcript of records, which presents the student's academic results in a clear, complete and comprehensible manner for each part and which must be easily transferable from one institution to another. To facilitate the academic recognition of the studies undertaken or completed abroad, good communication and flexibility are required. In this regard the ECTS co-ordinators carry out a fundamental role monitoring the academic and administrative aspects of ECTS. As a rule, it is necessary to make available to the students the entire range of course units of the department that implements ECTS, including those units relating to postgraduate studies. The students must be able to attend regular courses - and not especially set up for them - and must be given the opportunity to satisfy the demands of the host institution giving an academic qualification. Reliance on ECTS credits guarantees the organisation of programmes, which are reasonable in terms of working load for the period of study abroad. For instance, 120 ECTS credits for a year require a student to work twice as hard as an average student whose plan is 60 credits. At the same time, 30 ECTS credits for a year period correspond to a part-time studying. 5

6 ECTS, moreover, allows students to continue their studies abroad. In fact, it can happen that once the original study period is over the student may not wish to return to their original institution but may instead prefer to remain in the host institution - possibly to graduate from there - or move on to a third institution. Such decision may not be taken without the agreement of all institutions involved which in any case have to set the conditions to fulfil in order to graduate from the host institution or transfer to a third institution. The ECTS certificate is a chronology of the student's academic record and it can constitute a particularly useful instrument for the institutions to manage such a decision. 6

7 EDUCATION IN ITALY Until 1989 (Law 168/1989) the entire Italian educational system was under the Ministry of Education. At that time the Ministry of Universities and Scientific Research was created to take over the responsibilities of university education and scientific and technological research. The two entities are currently encompassed under the organisational designation Ministero dell Istruzione, dell Università e della Ricerca - MIUR (Ministry of Education, University and Research). Information for foreign students can be found at PRIMARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION Cycles Following the 2003 Reform of primary and secondary education, the Italian school system has been reorganised as follows: First cycle Primary education: 5 years of schooling beginning at age 6; Secondary education (first degree): 3 years of schooling beginning at age 11. Second cycle Secondary education (second degree): 5 years of schooling beginning at age 14. The higher secondary schools are of various types: classical, scientific, linguistic, artistic, technical and vocational studies as well as teacher training. At the end of the 5-year course, students take the examination to obtain the Diploma di Maturità in the specialised area they have chosen. This diploma grants admission to an Italian university. Grading System Until 1968, secondary school grading was on a scale of 0-10, 6 being the minimum passing grade. From 1969 to 1999, final marks were on a scale of 0-60, 36 being the minimum passing grade. Since 2000 a different system has been implemented: final marks are on a scale of and the minimum passing grade is 60. UNIVERSITY EDUCATION Admission Admission to Italian universities grants only to holders of a Diploma di maturità from an Italian secondary school. Foreign students, or Italian students from secondary schools abroad, are admitted on the strength of equivalent qualifications. There are no limitations on admission except in Medical School (medicine, dentistry, veterinary), in private independent universities (like LUISS Guido Carli or Bocconi in Milan), and in newly established universities/degree courses. Grading System In the university grading system, individual courses grade on a scale of The maximum final grade is 110, after the dissertation of a thesis on a free topic. For very brilliant students the degree may be awarded cum laude. < 18 = fail 18/23 = sufficient 24/26 = satisfactory 27/28 = good 29/30 = Very good 30 e lode = Excellent 7

8 Academic Qualifications and Degrees 1. University Diploma This is a first-level university qualification for courses lasting 3 years. For admission to these courses, students must have a Diploma di Maturità. 2. Laurea (Degree) The system of university study in Italy has undergone an overall reform in terms of structure and teaching system. Up to 2001, to obtain a Laurea, the basic university degree, used to take 4 to 6 years, depending on the field of study. From the academic year 2001/2002, universities have adopted three study cycles. The first cycle, three years in length, is characterised by a professional training type content and concludes with the award of a first-level degree (Laurea Triennale Bachelor Degree); the second cycle, lasting two years, concludes with the award of a second-level Master s degree (Laurea Magistralis Master s Degree); while the third cycle, lasting from one to three years, leads to the award of either a doctorate or a specialised postgraduate degree. Teaching activity is organized in departments, which offer one or more degree courses in specific academic areas. Course requirements are established by law and the laurea is obtained after the student has passed a set number of exams, gained the required credits, and successfully discussed a written research paper. Admission to the Laurea programme is regulated by the general rules for university admission. Courses for masters degrees may also be offered parallel to each study cycle. All study programmes must be based on the European system for the transfer of academic credits (ECTS) as provided for in recent agreements reached at EU level. Along with the three-cycle program system established by the Italian Ministerial Decrees, a limited number of old second cycle programs (dental medicine, human medicine, pharmacy, veterinary medicine, architecture, law) coexist with the new university system. These programs, called One-Cycle Programs, aim at providing students with advanced education and training for highly qualified professions in specific areas. The general access requirement is upper secondary school degree or a comparable foreign qualification. Admission to individual degree programs may be subject to specific course requirements. One-Cycle Programs last five years and require 300 credits (European Credit Transfer System) for completion (only human medicine requires six years and 360 credits). The degree awarded is a Master s Degree which grants access to competitions for the civil service, to regulated and nonregulated professions, doctoral programs and all the other postgraduate study degree programs. 3. Research Doctorate The aim of the doctoral studies programmes is to offer post-graduate opportunity for research. Programmes include individual research under the guidance of professors and special seminars. The minimum period of study is three years. This third-level academic degree, Doctorate of Research, is awarded to candidates who have successfully documented their research and written an original final thesis. This programme is open to a limited number of candidates (also from foreign countries), who must be university graduates or hold equivalent degrees. 8

9 3a. Post-graduate Diplomas of Specialization These diplomas are given by schools offering special advanced courses in various professions. The limited places are reserved for university graduates or those with equivalent foreign qualifications. The courses last 2/3 years and include practical experience. Attendance is mandatory. The final examination is a defence of a written thesis. 9

EXCHANGE STUDENTS LLP ERASMUS PROGRAMME AND BILATERAL AGREEMENTS The Student Exchange Office (Viale Romania, Rome) deals with orientation and registration of students on exchange programmes (LLP Erasmus and Bilateral Agreements). Every year, around the month of February, LUISS sends an info-package to every partner Institution by . It contains information for exchange students and application forms for: - Online registration, including the Learning Agreement (or proposed programme of study) - Accommodation - The intensive course in Italian Language in September. All applications, in electronic and paper version, completed and signed, must be received by May 31, that is the fixed deadline for fall and/or spring semester applications every year. As soon as the application forms are received, in June, LUISS will send incoming students acceptance letters and practical information. 16

17 Since courses and examinations are mainly held in Italian, students will need to have an adequate knowledge of the language before beginning their courses. If necessary, they can attend an intensive Italian course that is held every year at LUISS Guido Carli in September. There are set, mandatory arrival dates for each academic year. The dates are not yet available, but they will be made available and sent to partners institutions as soon as possible. At their arrival, students must report to the Student Exchange Office at a.m. or at 2.30 p.m. (Viale Romania, Rome - tel.: /5389/5722- fax: relint@luiss.it). They are highly recommended to arrive on the fixed dates. 5. COURSES, EXAMS, TRANSCRIPTS OF RECORDS The language of instruction is mainly Italian. Every year, LUISS offers some courses in English. The final list is available at the beginning of classes. The standard working load for LUISS students is about 30 credits/semester, including two language courses. Guest students are advised not to take more than the average working load. On making their choice of courses exchange students should: check the pre-requisites, avoid time-table clashes for attendance is compulsory, pick courses only at their level (Bachelor or Master). Full-year courses can only be taken by the students that will spend the whole academic year at LUISS. If these conditions are met, guest students have access to all the courses in the four LUISS Departments. In order to attend the Master s Degree Courses students must have: - a Bachelor degree or three years of study completed before departure; - a very good command of the Italian/English language. Please note that it will be very difficult to mix Bachelor and Master s courses because of the different timetables, calendar and examination periods. Full-time attendance of classes is mandatory. The final examinations for each course are oral and sometimes written. Written tests may be given occasionally during the course. Guest students are registered automatically for all the examination dates (Appelli) for all the courses they have chosen. Exams can be taken only on the official dates. Please note that NO special examination can be arranged for exchange students. The original transcripts of records will be sent both to the students and partner institutions after the end of each examination session. To the students who come to LUISS for the whole academic year or for the second semester, the transcripts will be sent at the end of the first week of September. Our summer examination session ends on July 2 and transcripts cannot be prepared before the session is over. Since the 17

18 University closes in August, the transcripts can only be issued by the Student Office after the summer break. 6. COURSE IN ITALIAN LANGUAGE AND CULTURE LUISS Guido Carli offers a semester Italian language course for guest students who have been admitted to attend a semester or a year at the Department of Economics and Finance, Business and Management, Political Science, or Law. The courses are at three levels, beginners, intermediate and advanced; they are free of charge. The courses are only open to Erasmus and Exchange students coming from partner Universities and they are free of charge. Students who would like to attend the course must specify so on their application form. The courses comprise at least: minute lessons for the beginners and intermediate level; minute lessons for the advanced level; The courses will have three hours of classes per week in each semester. The students that attend the courses and comply with the requirements will receive a certificate and gain 3 ECTS credits. The person responsible for the courses is Professor Concetta Amato. Beginners Level The course is for absolute and false beginners, students who have attended 0-30 hours of lessons. Its aim is to enable participants to communicate on topics of immediate relevance (for example, give basic personal and family details, make purchases, describe surroundings and explain one's job). Intermediate Level This level is for those who have already attended an Italian course and are able to communicate in everyday situations. The principal aim of the course is to improve oral communication. Particular emphasis is placed on listening comprehension to enable students to take full advantage of lectures in their chosen field. Advanced Level This level is for those who are already proficient in the language and need to develop specialist language areas. The main aim is to help the student reach a high standard of reading and writing skills. Extra curricular activities These include: 18

19 Presentations followed by discussion; Meetings with Italian businessmen; Guided tours with specialized teachers. The activities and meetings develop topics already discussed in class and take into account the interests of individual participants. 7. ACCOMMODATION Since LUISS does not have student dormitory facilities offered to Exchange Students, the Student Exchange Office does not take direct responsibility in providing accommodation. A private organisation, C.T.S., takes care of it according to the application forms received (by C.T.S. and the Student Exchange Office of LUISS Guido Carli) by May 31. Ask the LLP Erasmus Coordinator in your university for a copy of our Accommodation documents. Please read the booking conditions carefully, follow the instructions and complete the application form. 8. HEALTH AND INSURANCE Students from the EU are entitled to the services of the Italian National Health Service. However, they must bring along their European Health Insurance Card (E.H.I.C.). The University doctor is available to all LUISS Guido Carli students on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, from 3.00 p.m. to 4.00 p.m. and on Tuesdays and Thursdays from a.m. to a.m. at Viale Gorizia 17 (tel.: ; diritto.studio@luiss.it). The University Union has also started up a preventive medicine service in collaboration with appropriately equipped hospital centres. Every student is entitled to general check-ups, and, if necessary, special tests. Exchange students are required to avail themselves of an insurance policy to cover risks or accidents during the period of study in Italy. 9. RESIDENCE PERMITS FOR NON-EU STUDENTS RESIDENCE PERMIT FOR NON-EU STUDENTS Non-EU students who intend to spend some time in Italy must request a residence permit no later than 8 working days from their arrival in Italy. How to obtain the residence permit for study reasons: Use the yellow kit which you will find in all postal offices. Carefully fill in the forms, following all the instructions. Together with the filled application, students must also bring: a valid passport; a photocopy of the passport (in A4 format); a photocopy of any other requested identity documents (in A4 format). 19

20 The Immigration Office will contact you by priority mail for the photo-typing surveys and to set an appointment for you to receive the electronic residence permit. REGISTRATION FOR EU STUDENTS For students who plan to stay in Italy for less than three months, no formality is requested; for periods longer than three months, students need to make a vital statistic registration at the municipality, as Italians citizens do. Students will have to call 06/0606 to know which Roman municipality they belong to (you just need to tell the address of your accommodation in Rome). This procedure is mandatory, and it requires the following documents: Personal ID (or Equivalent); Declaration by LUISS stating the duration of the students exchange period (this document is issued by the Student Exchange Office on the orientation day); Health insurance policy covering all risks that students might incur in during the whole exchange period abroad; Proof of economic means of subsistence, also by self-statement. 20

21 THE DEPARTMENT OF LAW Director: professor Antonio Nuzzo The Department of Law came into being in the academic year 1982/1983. Its aim is to produce commercial lawyers whose education is strongly related to the needs of industrial society. The academic programme offers a modern education in legal subjects emphasising the link between Law and Economics. To attain the educational objectives three paths were pursued: - The introduction of new subjects in the curriculum, such as Information Technology and Legal Systems, Economic and Financial Policy, Monetary Law, Urban Law related to the problems of the environment, the Law of Domestic and International Arbitration, and English. - The introduction of new teaching methods which stress the study of legal problems in the context of real cases in order to gain an understanding of legal principles at work. In this way the traditional teaching approach of presenting the principles and norms of the system is inverted by beginning with examples from which to derive the principles and norms. - The building up of a teaching staff that includes, in addition to academics, representatives of the business world, of the public administration and of the judiciary. SINGLE CYCLE DEGREE in LAW FIVE YEAR COURSE Corso di Laurea a Ciclo Unico in Giurisprudenza After the new legislations concerning Universities, the Department of Law had followed the same path as Economics and Finance, Business and Management and Political Science, with a bachelor degree and a master s degree. Nevertheless, according to latest legislative modifications, the University changed the structure of the course transforming it into a single cycle lasting five years. The final degree will thus be obtained at the end of the five years, and the Laurea will have the same value of a Laurea Magistralis. The course provides a solid preparation in law, economics and accountancy, in order to endow students with an interdisciplinary knowledge suitable for facilitating the negotiation and signing of the most common contracts in society today. The main characteristic of this course is to provide students with an integrated understanding of juridical, economic and company-related disciplines. The course consists of 300 credits. Didactic activity is organised in semesters. All students study English for three years. INTER DEPARTMENT TWO-YEAR MASTER S DEGREE COURSES For inter department courses please refer to the Economics and Finance Business and Management ECTS Brochure 2015/2016 or check our website. 21

22 GENERAL COURSE STRUCTURE SINGLE CYCLE COURSE Five Year Degree in Law Credits: from 6 to 14 depending on the course Total credits for the whole degree course: 300 Contact hours involve a variety of activities such as lectures, case studies and seminars.

Competitività e moneta unica L INDUSTRIA, vol ; p L5-Beth9: BUSINESS ETHICS Spring semester; 26 lessons; 6 hrs per week; 4 credits; elective The first part of the course will address the question of ethics, above all taking into account the history of Western thought. Then, aware of the globalised context in which we are currently living, consideration will be given to how ethics are viewed by other cultures and religious traditions (Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, Confucianism, Shinto, and African and Aboriginal traditions). This first excursus will conclude with the listing (through a metaethical process and with reference to the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Italian Constitution and LUISS own University Code of Ethics) of those few essential and absolute ethics shared by all that, today in a world of co-existence among various cultures and religions, for individuals and the community as a whole can serve as the foundation for morality and law. The second part of the course takes the form of an itinerary of legal ethics. After having reconstructed the reasoning of the process of the positivisation of moral contents that has occurred in modern constitutions, the course will proceed to analyse the values that legal scholars are called upon daily to interact with: the ideas of democracy, liberty, pluralism and constitutionalism, without neglecting the metavalues of justice and equality which represent the conditions of possibility and the connecting elements of those ideas. Assessment: oral and written exam Professor: Sangalli Learning Outcomes: Introduce students to the capacity to critically develop their own moral judgment and find the conditions for a shared view of ethics, leading to general knowledge of the various proposals for ethics in the modern age and their impact on the current social fabric. The course seeks to ensure that students learn about the shared ethical values applicable to the various professional fields that they will work in, especially the legal field. The course requires students to be open to questioning themselves about human life and to develop a critical methodology on how to correctly tackle the questions that such poses.

In Micro, we start with the concepts of rational agent, opportunity cost, choice under constraint, maximizing behavior. We derive the demand and supply schedule, and explain how a competitive market reaches an equilibrium between prices and quantities exchanged. We study the elasticity of demand and supply, the production function, cost curves, and we explain the difference between the main market structures, competition, oligopoly, monopoly. We explain why in many cases markets lack the conditions to obtain Paretian optimum, and introduce the issues of externalities and public goods, fundamental to lawyers and regulators and to environmental protection. In Macro, we start with the Keynesian critique and interpretation of the economic crises to develop the concepts of aggregate demand and supply, we introduce the basic concepts of monetary economics, the basic issues of fiscal policy, the short and long term effects of fiscal and monetary management of aggregate demand with respect to iflation and employment.we introduce the basics of international economics and we end with an analysis of the present European situation after the 2008 crisis and the future of the European union and other international sovranational institutions in the age of globalization. Assessment: Professors: Learning Outcomes: oral exam Addis The aim of the course is to teach law students the fundamentals of economics. Since the students are trained to become lawyers rather than economists, the course will adopt a broad approach in dealing with the relationship between law and economics, addressing the issues of regulation and market reactions to legislative intervention rather than delving into the quantitative techniques needed to continue studying economics.

86 Exchange of information avoidance VAT Environmental taxation BEPS Customs duties CCTB As part of the course two cycles of optional seminars (of 10 hours each) are planned. The first cycle of lessons will focus on The international conventions on income and on capital ; the second will focus on current issues of tax law. Students will be provided with the fundamentals of tax treaty law and the most important issues of international taxation will be discussed. The participation to this seminar will grant the possibility to take part to the selection for the EUCOTAX Wintercourse and the Moot Court Competition. The Eucotax Wintercourse, to which Luiss Guido Carli participates since 1995, is a project of cooperation in research activities in the field of tax law (European Universities Cooperating on TAXes), in which, besides LUISS Guido Carli, prestigious European and American Universities take part, including Georgetown University, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, the Universitat de Barcelona, Universität Osnabrück, the Universiteit van Tilburg, the Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne, Queen Mary University of London, Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien, the Corvinus University of Budapest. Each year a general topic is selected and 86 twill is divided into six sub-topics. A questionnaire is drafted for each of subtopics. Each student has to answer to the questions included in the questionnaire form his/her own country perspective. During the week of the Wintercourse a comparison among the different countries takes place. All the students who have examined the same subtopic draft a final document. In order to select the best students for such a project a written test takes place. This test consists of a series of multiple-choice questions and one open question. For the purposes of selection, also the academic CV (for 25%) and the English level (for 25%) will be taken into account. With regard to the English level, 86 twill be assessed on the basis of the level of the courses organized by LUISS Guido Carli and/or with the support of official certificates (such as those granted by the University of Cambridge or the TOEFL). The results of the test will count for the remainder 50%. Starting from the academic year , Luiss Guido Carli also takes part to the Moot Court Competition. This is a competition that simulates a process, in which the delegations (consisting of a maximum of 4 persons) of selected European and American universities face off on a specific topic of International and/or European tax law. Simulating an oral hearing before an international court, the different teams draft a written memorandum and plead in front of the court, illustrating the relevant arguments. Participation to this project requires a research activity to be carried out at LUISS in order to properly draft the written memorandum. The oral phase will take place in Belgium (Katholieke Universiteit Leuven) and will be concentrated in one week. During this week seminars on topics of EU law and visits to EU institutions (Council of the European Union and the European Court of Justice) also take place. Prerequisites: Tax Law Assessment: oral exam Professor: Rosembuj Learning Outcomes: The course aims to teach students the main concepts of EU tax law, including through the analysis of legislation (the Treaty on Functioning of the European Union, directives, etc.) and European Court of Justice caselaw. At the end of the course, students are expected to be familiar with ECJ caselaw and with the trends in EU tax law. Two seminars on international taxation in preparation for the admission to Wintercourse (inter-university program involving the LUISS) will be held. 86

100 The course introduces students to the basic principles of Public International Law and to the main challenges faced by this discipline today. After having discussed about the origins and foundations of Public International Law, the Course analyses the main subjects in this field including, in particular States, International Organizations, individuals, and other sui generis entities. The sources of international law are identified and the hierarchy existing among them is discussed, focusing, in particular, on the specific role of peremptory norms of international law (jus cogens rules). The Course also analyses some relevant areas of public international law, including inter alia the use of force in the international legal order (ius ad bellum), the role of the United Nations and the collective security system, the law of the sea, the international protection of human rights, international humanitarian law (ius in bello), international criminal law, and international environmental law. Finally, the consequences of the breaches of international law and the implementation of international rules within national systems are studied. Assessment: Professor: Learning Outcomes: oral exam Pustorino/Virzo The course is designed to induce the awareness of the international dimension of problems and solutions, emphasising the need for interstate cooperation at various levels (regional, continental and universal) to tackle the challenges of globalisation. In this perspective adequate analytical tools and guidance in key areas of international cooperation will be provided, thereby completing the basic training necessary to pursue a career in government or in an international organisation.

135 GRADUATE SCHOOL FOR LEGAL PROFESSIONS The educational aim of the Graduate School for the Legal Professions (part of the Department of Law) is to develop in students the professional skills they will require as lawyers, judges and notaries, also in light of the increasing international integration of law and legal systems. Holders of a law degree from an Italian university or an analogous academic qualification obtained abroad (and recognised in advance as equivalent by the relevant academic authorities) may be admitted to the school subject to passing the entrance examination. The course is two years and may not be shortened. In the first year all students follow a common syllabus whereas in the second year students follow courses tailored to the legal career they wish to follow, i.e. judge/lawyer or notary. During their time at the school students will be taught around 30 legal and economic subjects and will also engage in practical exercises such as drafting deeds, moot courts and public debates. Please note that the courses of the School are not open to LLP Erasmus students or students under other exchange agreements. 135

136 USEFUL INFORMATION FOR GUEST STUDENTS COST OF LIVING MONEY On January 1 st, 2002 the Euro was introduced as legal currency in Italy, substituting the Italian Lira. Banks opening hours: Monday to Friday; 8.30 a.m p.m. and 2.45 p.m p.m. We suggest that you go to the bank in the morning. If you wish to open a bank account in Italy you will first have to obtain your Codice Fiscale (see n.9 TAXPAYER S CODE NUMBER). Credit cards are widely accepted in restaurants, hotels, railway stations and shops. You may use a credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, etc) to cash Euro from Automatic Teller Machines ATM available in every bank at all times. Most cards have a limit on the amount of cash which can be withdrawn. We recommend that students bring along a sufficient amount of Euros or travellers cheques to cover immediate necessities (keep in mind that there are considerable delays involved in transferring money to Italy from abroad!). ACCOMMODATION LUISS University has no dormitory facilities. Most Erasmus students live in private apartments with Italian or international roommates in the neighbourhoods nearby the University. The Student Exchange Office does not take direct responsibility for providing accommodation. A private organization takes care of it on the basis of the application forms received (by the Student Exchange Office of LUISS Guido Carli) by May 31. The average cost is between 350 for a place in a double room and 500 for a single room a month plus utilities (telephone, electricity, heating, gas). Ask your Coordinator for a copy of the accommodation documents. Please read the booking conditions carefully, follow the instructions and complete the application form. INSURANCE All guest students are highly required to have an insurance policy covering medical care and third party liability. It is advisable for them to buy it in their country of origin because these policies are very expensive in Italy. For students from countries which are members of the European Union some medical costs are generally covered by their national health service (do not forget to bring your European Health Insurance Card EHIC!). 136
