Logo and location

Ciao!

The University of Trieste is a secular, pluralist, public institution of higher education which is independent of any ideological, religious, political or economic orientation. It is in accordance with the principles of the Constitution of the Italian Republic and with the international commitments Italy has undertaken in the fields of scientific research and university education.

The main objectives of the University are scientific research and higher education, in order to promote the cultural, civil, social and economic development in the Italian Republic. The University acknowledges that teaching and research are inseparable and that both, where applicable, are inseparable from healthcare services.

University in a nutshell

Location

The main headquarters of the University is located in Trieste, at Piazzale Europa 1, in an elevated area overlooking the city. The historic building, dating back to 1924, along with other more recently constructed structures, forms a true university campus, housing offices, classrooms, and laboratories for almost all degree programs. 

Since 1989, there has been a branch location in Gorizia, situated in the building of the former Seminario Minore, which has been appropriately renovated and expanded. 

Since 1991, another branch of the University has been established in Pordenone, at Via Prasecco 4/1. 

Finally, since 1997, the University has also been present in Portogruaro, in the province of Venice.
