The University of Turin was founded in 1404 by a papal Bull issued by Pope Benedict XIII. It then developed on the initiative of Prince Ludovico of Savoia-Acaja, who was willing to establish a University on his own land, at a crossroads between the Alps, Liguria and Lombardy.
The research output of the University of Turin is managed, displayed and made searchable through the IRIS-AperTO application.
The University's Job Placement Service has been established in order to help its students and new graduated (who held their university degree within 12 months) to enter the labour market. The service operates on two levels: through the Job Placement offices in the individual Schools and Departments and through the central Job Placement office at the Students' Rights office.
There are 22 libraries spread over 32 locations. The Botanic Garden and several University Museums such as "Cesare Lombroso" - Criminal Anthropology Museum and "Luigi Rolando" - Human Anatomy Museum are well known.
Situated in the North West of the country, on the banks of the Po River and surrounded by the Alps, Turin is the administrative centre of the Piedmont Region and the third biggest city in Italy. The urban area is bordered by what has always been historically known as the "Corona delle Delizie", the crown or ring of delights, formed by the Royal Residences dotted around the outside of the city.

I liked the main subjects and the fact that we were not too many students. The humanitary part could be improved organization wise
I am currently study at the Einaudi Campus,so the facilities and the campus in general are great. The professors are also great and tries to stay on point with their students. Overall is a good college with a good infrastrutture and a great academic society.
Good university with various courses and a nice support from professors. It is stressful and difficult to study for the hard exams, but it's definitely worth it. The online site is clear and you can get more information there.
