The
New Faculties of the ancient Universities
Le Marche, the crib of art and of culture, is
proud of its universities with long and prestigious history. Law Schools
in Macerata and in Ancona were active already in the Middle Ages. In 1350,
in Camerino, courses of Canonical Rights and Civil Rights, Medicine and
Literature were held. Around the middle of 1400, the Gymnasium
Publicum of Urbino (developed in stimulating and ardent ducal
environment) represented reference point to all Italian students as far as
high level training in Philosophy and Theology was concerned. Through
time, each university has broadened and developed its own method of
education, based on particular cultural, social, economic and historical
processes. (Recently
a new university structure was introduced, and five years courses for
university degree are being gradually replaced by three years courses,
followed possibly by a two years specialisation.) Today,
innovative sectors of studying have been shaped everywhere to give
training that corresponds to necessities of the present time.
In
Ancona for example, at
the Faculty of Agrarian Sciences and
Technologies, are studied subjects like Biotechnologies and biodiversities, Territorial Planning and Environmental Planning, Integrated
Vegetal Production. The courses for the university degree in Forestry
and Environmental Sciences, as well as Administration
of Resources in Mountain Territories form professional figures needed
to valorise natural resources of the Marches. Equally relevant are new
courses at the Faculty of Economics:
Territorial Economy, Tourist
Economy and Social Service. The faculty of Engineering
recently introduced courses in Industrial
Production (which, in the detached site in Fabriano studies questions connected to Mechanic Production and to Paper
Production), Construction
Engineering and Rehabilitation, Telecommunications,
Computer Sciences and Automation.
Those who want to study at distance, can enrol for the teledidactic
courses (in accordance with the University of Studies of Ancona) given by
the local "Consorzio Nettuno".
At
the University of Studies of Camerino
(with an important detached department in Ascoli
Piceno), the Faculty of
Architecture proposes courses in Industrial
and Environmental Design, in Veterinary
Medicine (with specialisation in Eco-Compatible
Extensive Animal Productions )
and - in the didactic pole of San
Benedetto del Tronto - in Production,
Health and Preservation of aquatic organisms, while the one of Sciences
is aimed to environmentalism by means of the course in Preservation
of Nature.
It
has been a few years that the Jurisprudence
Faculty of the university of Macerata offers a course for the
university degree in Administration
Sciences while Diploma Courses include training of Cultural Patrimony Operators, Lawyers
of Business Enterprises and Job
Counselors.
The
University of Studies of Urbino
has enlarged the choice of its courses in Pharmacy
by means of introducing the Herbal
Techniques and Nutritional
Sciences. The Faculty of
Mathematics, Physics and Natural
sciences has been enriched by courses in Sciences
and Technologies for Nature and (in collaboration with the Faculty of Environmental Sciences and the Faculty of Philosophy and Literature) in Technologies for Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Heritage.
At the Training Sciences Faculty in Urbino, it is possible to follow courses in Processes
of Training and Cultural Services as well as in Techniques
of Graphology, while at the Faculty
of Sociology are open courses in Advertising
Communication and in Fashion
Design and Disciplines. Courses for the university degree in Environmental
Esteem and Control and for Technician
of Territory born at the Faculty
of Environmental Sciences and at the Faculty
of Motor Sciences (ISEF) are also of recent constitution.
This
is why the training panorama in the Marches is considered vast and current,
able to prepare those that, in future, will valorise and contribute to
potentialities of this region.
