Over 16,000 people have registered for the University of Trieste's prospective student events and presentations for first-level courses (bachelor's degrees and integrated master's degrees), which are taking place from today until Friday 17th October. Open Days 2025 is a prospective student event aimed at students in their final years of secondary school and is designed to support them in choosing their degree course by presenting all the courses offered by UniTS in a clear and comprehensive manner. 

The event will attract students from across the region to Piazzale Europa, but there will also be significant participation from Veneto(Venice, Treviso, Belluno, Verona). Students are also expected to attend from Trentino-Alto Adige (Trento), Lombardy (Pavia), Piedmont (Novara), Marche (Ancona, Pesaro Urbino), Emilia Romagna (Modena), Puglia (Brindisi), Sardinia (Sassari), Sicily (Ragusa) and, as usual, young people from Croatia and Slovenia will also be present, a testament to the cross-border interest in the UniTS course catalogue.

The event will begin on 15th October at 9:00 in the Main Hall of Building A in Piazzale Europa with a welcome address by the Rector, Prof. Donata Vianelli, and the Rector's Delegate for Prospective Student Policies, Prof. Elisabetta Madriz. This will be followed by a presentation of the courses offered in the Social Sciences and Humanities (4,870 enrolments). On 16th October, courses in Technology and Science (4,743 enrolments) will be presented and on 17th October, students can find out about courses in Life and Health Sciences (6,020 enrolments).

In addition to course presentations, each day will feature guided tours of the Piazzale Europa Campus and an afternoon presentation on the University's services with focus on university fees, disabilities and SLDs, UniTS study grants, international mobility (Erasmus), the Career Service. There will also be presentations by ARDiS (scholarships and student halls), the Collegio di merito “Luciano Fonda”, and the University Sports Centre (CUS).

Drop-in sessions at information desks will also be on offer in the lobbies of the Main Building (no booking required).

Each day, a classroom will be dedicated exclusively to informal peer discussions, with testimonials from UniTS students on their choices and university life as well as useful answers to the common uncertainties and questions many prospective students have.
