The basic idea around GIOCA is to supply a solid specialization regarding the three aspects of a broad body of knowledge commonly called administration: Economics, Law and Management.
Surrounding this central nucleus there are various supplemental courses, called Laboratories, aiming at providing a practical, rather than theoretical, viewpoint on operating issues in various artistic and cultural fields:
Various additional courses complement the basic curriculum and attempt to increase the knowledge, approach, and overall training offered to students: Sociology; Humanistic area; Methodological area.

PROJECT WORK/INTERNSHIP AND FINAL DISSERTATION
The final semester of the Program consists of a project work based on a deep-contact experience within an artistic or cultural organization or in public or private administration. The project work, elaborated under a supervisor’s guidance, will be the topic of the final thesis.
ORGANIZATIONAL ASPECTS
From the operational point of view, the Master aims at an “intelligent” use of all aspects of the university resources:
- Lessons are interdisciplinary, exposing the students to problem solving, unique environments, and contacts with students from other programs;
- Courses are assembled ad hoc on the basis of the professors’ interests of research, which expresses an interdisciplinary work ethic and a disposition to innovation;
- Courses are assigned internally to scholars within the department, while others are assigned to international teachers or experts.
- GIOCA also organizes seminars and conferences during the year inviting important professionals or professors; these are compulsory activities organized ad hoc only for the Program.
Attendance is compulsory: students must attend at least 70% of the lessons to be eligible to take the exams.
