About the course

A three-year economics degree (class L-33) offered entirely in English. It combines economics and finance with data science, mathematics and statistics.

Entry requirements for Irish students

  • Italy accepts the Leaving Certificate after 12 years of schooling. UniTo checks foreign qualifications through Apply@UniTo. It publishes no Leaving Cert subject or grade rules, and CAO points are not used. Confirm with UniTo’s International Students Section that your Leaving Cert meets entry (some Italian universities expect 2 Higher Level subjects at H5 or better).
  • The course has limited places and admission is through the SAT call; UniTo counts your most recent SAT score. The course page describes an English-language test covering logic, verbal comprehension and mathematics. Strong maths (Higher Level Maths) is advisable.
  • The course page asks for an advanced level of English. No specific certificate is named, so confirm whether Leaving Cert English is accepted.
