2 M.Sc. Course in Energy Engineering () THE UNIVERSITY OF GENOA Already in the 13th century in Genoa there were Colleges. The College of Law was certainly established before 1353 while the College of Medicine was promulgated in The College of Theology was also established around the same time, officially dating back to the 1471 Papal Bull of Sixtus IV. In 1870 two important institutes of higher education were established in Genoa: the Royal Naval School and the Royal School of Economic Studies. Currently (2014) the University has about students (7800 in Polytechnich School), 2700 employees, 125 degree courses, 2000 foreign students and 3 Campuses (Genova, Savona and La Spezia). Page 2 / 31
