Supporting scientific research
We recognise the fundamental role of research, guarantee its full freedom and promote its development by using public and private contributions, within a national and international framework of reference.
Supporting research means investing in the future of society.
Unipd has been ranked the leading university in Italy for the quality of its research, as certified by the reports of the National Agency for the Evaluation of the University and Research System (ANVUR), placing Padua in the top excellence band.
