Welcome to St. John International University … the American University of Northern Italy

Overview:

St. John International University (SJIU) is an American-chartered and – approved U.S. institution of higher education with its main campus located in Vinovo/Torino, Italy. SJIU is the first and only U.S. institution authorized to offer graduate degrees in Italy. Even considering its relative youth, the University embraces the traditions and high standards of U.S. liberal arts institutions that possess a much longer history. The SJIU campus is ideally situated in the Piemonte region of Northern Italy and located twenty minutes by car from the center of Torino (site of the 2006 Winter Olympics), and an hour’s drive from the borders of France (to the west) and Switzerland (to the north), the city of Milan (to the east), and the villages and beaches of the Italian Riviera (to the south).

Currently, SJIU offers three master-level (graduate) programs (MBA, MIAA, M.Arch. (including MSD)), five undergraduate degree programs leading to a Bachelor’s degree (B.S. in Business Administration, B.S. in Environmental Architecture, B.A. in Environmental Studies, B.A. in Film Studies, B.A. in Art History), the innovative EuroBridge-US program for talented international students who are committed to strengthening their English language proficiency, as well as a series of specialized diploma and certificate programs in business and architecture. The thematic core around which the University’s curriculum is framed is that of “Sustainability” and the imperatives associated with placing “people, planet, and profits” in balance.
