designed for children aged 3 to 5 years of age on the basis of
a clear and adapted educational project. It is a structure that

schools are usually integrated in comprehensive schools,
while maintaining optional enrollment. Children under the
age of three years are scheduled for nursery schools.

16. Italian Universities
Italian Universities are among the oldest universities in the
world. In particular the University of Bologna (founded in 1088,
the oldest university in the world), the University of Padua,
founded in 1222, or the University of Naples, founded in 1224
and are the most ancient state universities in Europe.

17. Universities in Italy fits the framework of the Bologna Process since
the adoption, in 1999, of the so-called 3+2 system. The first level
degree is the Laurea triennale that can be achieved after three years
of studies. Selected students can then complete their studies in the
following step: two additional years of specialization which leads to
the Laurea Magistrale.
The "Laurea triennale" corresponds roughly to a Bachelor Degree while
the "Laurea Magistrale" corresponds to a Master Degree. Only the
Laurea Magistrale grants access to third cycle programmes (Post-MA
degrees, Doctorates or Specializing schools), that last 2 to 5 years.
However, there is just a unique five-year degree "Laurea Magistrale
Quinquennale" (Five-Year Master of Arts) for some programmes such
as Law (Facoltà di Giurisprudenza), Arts (Accademia di Belle Arti) and
Music (Conservatorio di Musica). The title for MA/MFA/MD/ME
graduate students is Dottore.

18. The Italian master's degree should not be confused with
Italian "Masters" that are one-year specialistic courses
which guarantee a more practical education but don’t
give access to further levels of studies.
Universities in Italy can be divided into 4 groups:
State-funded( finanziati dallo Stato) public universities:
this category comprises most of Italian universities,
particularly the largest institutions.
Universities funded by other public authority (other than
the state, such as Provinces): this is the case of the Free
University of Bozen-Bolzano.
Private universities officially recognized by the Ministry
of Education.
