The Program |
| |
CIU is located in the city of Paderno del Grappa, close to the Consortium’s MBA facility in nearby Asolo. Nestled in the foothills of the Dolomite Mountains, about 25 miles north of Venice, CIU is a full-service campus. CIU campus also includes a 17th century villa utilized for executive education.
The location of the campus offers the cultural experience of living in a small Italian community while providing direct access to the well-known art and history treasures of the Veneto. The Veneto region, with its major cities of Venice, Padua, Vicenza, Verona and Treviso, is considered to be the most economically advanced region in Italy. During the past several years, the region of Veneto has enjoyed Europe’s highest rate of economic growth with low unemployment. A large part of that economic growth can be directly attributed to the efforts of the local business community in developing international markets. |
