Link Campus Rome (LCR) is the Italian branch of the internationally reputed University of Malta (est. 1592). Founded in 1998, Link Campus Rome was the first foreign higher education institute to receive approval from the Italian Department of Education to operate in Italy. Link Campus is an institution with a specific mission: to provide international students with the necessary skills to forge a successful international career. This mission in achieved by providing students with an environment rich in external stimuli, both international and innovative, geared to generate excellence. Link Campus works much like an ecosystem fostering creativity and independent thinking. The focus is to develop and prepare the student, ensuring that the education given responds to each individual's career aspirations. This focus on the individual is manifested in the wide use of the tutorial system, where the professor and the student meet regularly on a one-to-one basis or in very small groups, and in the limited number of students admitted to each. Link Campus Rome is also an international institution with various links with other foreign universities in Europe, the USA and other parts of the world, the University of Malta being one of the major Link Campus universities. It offers undergraduate and postgraduate degree courses some of which are delivered in English only, and some in Italian and English. Situated in Rome the capital city of Italy, students will have the opportunity not only to study but also to experience the culture of one of the main cities of European civilisation and architecture.
