The University of Padua has always been renowned for its open and international approach: over the years it has built up a global network of universities resulting in the development of top-level programmes in teaching and in the achievement of outstanding results in research.

Whilst building up such a close international network, the University has adopted a more structured and comprehensive approach to some partnerships with universities that share similar goals of internationalisation and constant improvement and development of the educational offer and international research. 

Under these strategic partnerships, the University of Padua and the partner universities pool their resources to fund projects that stand out for their international nature, added value, sustainability, and impact both within and outside the university environment.
