那不勒斯“费德里克二世”大学:知识与学说的发源地

英文导读

Frederick II of Hohenstaufen, King of Sicily and Holy Roman Emperor established the University of Naples as the Studium with an Imperial Charter, on 5 June 1224. In recognition of its founder, the university was named Federico II in 1987. It is one of the oldest universities to be founded by a head of state; this was at variance with other educational institutions, which were, by and large, the product of corporate initiatives. The university has produced acclaimed graduates over the years. These graduates have become successful in the fields of business, science, and politics. Some of the university"s notable alumni include Italian Republic president Giorgio Napolitano, Fiart Mare Spa manager Giuseppe Coccia, scientist Marco Durante, and Law and Business Administration graduate Francesco Grammatico.

System: The university is made up of three divisions, which operate as semi-independent bodies for the teaching and research management of thirteen schools and eighty-two departments grouped, within each division, according to academic and research profiles. Thus, the Division of Science and Technology includes: the School of Sciences (which, in turn, includes the Schools of Mathematics, Physics and Natural Sciences), the School of Engineering, and the School of Architecture. The Division of Life Sciences includes: the School of Medicine and Surgery, the School of Pharmacy, the School of Veterinary Medicine, the School of Agricultural Sciences and the recently established School of Biotechnological Sciences. The Division of Social and Human Sciences includes: the School of Economics, The School of Law, the School of Liberal Arts, the School of Political Sciences and the School of Sociology.

City show: Naples is the capital of Campania and the third-largest municipality in Italy, after Rome and Milan. Naples has long been a major cultural centre with a global sphere of influence, particularly during the Renaissance and Enlightenment eras. In the immediate vicinity of Naples are numerous culturally and historically significant sites, including the Palace of Caserta and the Roman ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum. The most prominent forms of architecture visible in present-day Naples are the Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque styles.
