UNIVERSITA DEGLI STUDI DI FIRENZE

The University of Florence represents one of the largest and most productive systems of public research in Italy, in terms of the number and scientific-disciplinary diversification of its tenured and fixed-term researchers and of the many junior scientists in training, the intense participation in research programmes of major national and international interest, the scientific results achieved and the funding that supports research and transfer activities from outside. This combination of factors, which qualifies Florence’s university as a modern “research university”, is what determines its excellent positions in national and international assessments.
