The curriculum includes course units divided into three main areas:

  1. general theory, offering a selection of fundamental concepts and theories of semiotics, language sciences, sociology and psychology, allowing students to analytically and critically investigate the world of contemporary communication;
  2. methodology, offering semiotic, sociological and basic analytical tools for interpreting visual communication and contemporary political communication, basic psychological methodologies for understanding and interpreting various contexts of social interaction (including conflicts and business interviews), basic computer skills to design and process digital texts and web contents;
  3. practical studies, offering basic competences in the main European languages, particularly English, working with communication professionals to effectively and efficiently design texts for advertising, traditional media (press, radio, television) and new media (websites, social media, virtual communities), and to work in professional and business sectors in an aware manner.


Particularly in year 3, ample room is dedicated to the analysis of case studies and concrete communication phenomena taken from professional and working situations. Students are offered direct contact with the professional and business world in the many laboratories organised (Laboratory 1 and Laboratory 2, each of which includes at least three different workshops, varying from year to year, according to professional and market needs).


During the three-year programme, to support the various course units seminars and conferences are run by entrepreneurs,, managers and professionals from the national and international communication sector.
