Ca' Foscari University of Venice (Italian: Università Ca' Foscari Venezia) is a public university in Venice, Italy; it is usually known simply as Università Ca' Foscari. Since its foundation in 1868 it has been housed in the Venetian Gothic palace of Ca' Foscari, from which it takes its name. The palace stands on the Grand Canal, between the Rialto and San Marco, in the sestiere ofDorsoduro.


The institute became a university in 1968.[2] It currently has eight departments and almost 21,000 students.[1] It is one of the highest ranked universities in Italy, ranking 5th in 2017 out of 89 universites.[3][4]

History


The institution was founded as the Regia Scuola Superiore di Commercio ("royal high school of commerce") by a Royal Decree dated 6 August 1868, and teaching commenced in December of the same year. The idea of establishing such a school had arisen after the annexation of the Veneto to the new Kingdom of Italy in 1866, and was promoted by three people in particular: the Jewish political economist Luigi Luzzatti, later Prime Minister of Italy; Edoardo Deodati, senator of the Kingdom of Italy and vice-president of the province of Venice; and the Sicilian political economist Francesco Ferrara, director of the school for its first thirty years.[2]


The school was the first institute of higher education in commerce in Italy,[5] and was from the outset conceived as a national rather than a regional institution; it had a diplomatic arm to prepare commercial consular staff for overseas service, and was also a training college for secondary school teachers of commercial subjects. Foreign languages were taught from the start. The school was modelled on the Institut Supérieur de Commerce d'Anvers, founded in 1853 in Antwerp, Belgium.[2]


Following the establishment of a national syllabus for university teaching in 1935, the Istituto Superiore di Economia e Commercio di Venezia, as it was by then called, was authorised to teach and award four-year laurea degrees.[6] In 1968 it obtained university status, and the name was changed to Università degli Studi di Venezia.[2]



Organisation


The university is divided into eight departments:[7]



  • Economics

  • Philosophy and cultural heritage

  • Management

  • Environmental science, computer science and statistics

  • Molecular science and nanosystems

  • Linguistic and comparative cultural studies

  • Humanities

  • Asian and Mediterranean African studies



Rankings


Ca' Foscari is subsequently ranked among the best universities in Italy, ranking 5th in 2017 out of 89 universities[8][9].


In 2017 Ca' Foscari's economics department was ranked as Italy's 3rd best, surpassed by University of Bologna and University of Padua[10].


The QS World University Ranking by subject has placed Ca’ Foscari of Venice among the top 150 universities in the world for ‘Arts & Humanities’ and ‘Languages’, and it is among the top 200 for ‘History’. ‘Economics’ has kept its place among the top 250 in the world.[citation needed]


The University is also the third state university in Italy for the quality of research according to ANVUR ratings, the National Agency for the Evaluation of University Research Systems.[citation needed]


Five Ca’ Foscari departments have been awarded additional funding by the Italian Ministry for education for a total of 35 million euros over 5 years, to which another 13.5 million has been made available by the University.[citation needed]



Research


According to the university's strategic plan, Ca' Foscari will funnel significant resources into these six discliplines for the next 4-year period:[11]


Science of Complexity


The transdisciplinary study of complex systems generates innovative solutions to the most pressing scientific and societal challenges facing the world today.


Digital Humanities


New digital technologies help to reveal new meaning in the world around us and create new fields of research such as the digital humanities and conservation science. The innovative approaches these technologies afford change the way cultural heritage is studied, preserved,restored, managed, disseminated and even created.


Social Innovation


Ca’ Foscari aims to break down the barriers that inhibit social participation, to reduce inequality and to promote integration,inclusivity and justice and improve healthcare by means of well-designed public policy.


Cross-cultural Relations


Comparative cultural and area studies provide the theoretical band conceptual basis for addressing some of the most burgent challenges of this century, such as radicalisation, migration and integration into increasingly multicultural and multilingual societies both within and beyond the European Union.


Green Growth


To help create a more sustainable future, Ca’ Foscari is developing nature-based solutions aimed at improving resource and energy efficiency, enabling green technologies (including nanotechnologies) and promoting sustainable growth in the maritime sector.


Innovation Management


Ca’ Foscari is investigating new frameworks and tools such as economic resilience, the circular economy, systemic and interactive innovation, bio-based products and multi-actor approaches.



Nobel's School


The celebration of 150 years[12] since Ca’ Foscari University Venice was founded brings some outstanding guests to take the stage at the Venetian University: six Nobel Prize Winners will give lectures to the University students throughout 2018.


Some of the personalities from around the world that have distinguished themselves in various fields of knowledge for their research, discoveries and inventions, for works of literature and working towards world peace will become part of the Ca’ Foscari community themselves. They will be lecturers for the degree programmes of the disciplines they have been awarded for and that define our University: economics and literature. A surplus value that Ca’ Foscari wants to give to its teaching, a one of a kind education that is unique to students, the heart and soul of Ca’ Foscari.


The Nobel lectures include:




  • Wole Soyinka, Nobel Prize Winner for Literature in 1986


  • Robert Merton, Nobel Prize Winner for Economics in 1997


  • Amartya Sen, Nobel Prize Winner for Economics in 1998
