Bologna is a city full of culture and diversity. There are students from all over the world that choose Bologna as their exchange year. It’s the home of a lot of different and small realities, especially when it comes to students’ associations that spread knowledge about gender, race and feminism.
Before uprooting one’s life to live in Bologna, hopeful expats should consider that Bologna revolves around Europe’s oldest university, UNIBO. Yearly 40,000 students crowd Bolognesi streets and cafes — which gives Bologna a youthful ambiance. However, while the city attracts many Italian youth, post-graduate residents have complained that the city does not present many opportunities for budding professionals.
