Seven out of ten of our language instructors are native speakers or bilingual professionals — translators, interpreters, managers — who bring real industry experience into the classroom.
Pisa, a true student city
One of Europe's oldest university towns, walkable, safe, well-connected, and one hour from Florence, the sea, and the Tuscan hills.

Foundation Year
A one-year preparatory programme for students who need to bridge into Italian higher education. Strengthens academic English, introduces Italian, and builds the study skills needed for a Bachelor's degree in Italy.
Pisa International Summer Experience
Three weeks of Italian language, Tuscan culture, academic seminars and excursions. A perfect introduction to Italy for international students considering longer study, or a stand-alone summer experience.
Exchange & mobility.
Internationalisation works both ways.
SSML Pisa is not only a place that welcomes the world — it's a place that sends its students into the world. Through Erasmus+ exchanges and our Double Degree with France, our undergraduates earn international experience that employers value and that shapes the rest of their professional lives.
