Trust, Data, and Determination: Niccolò’s Rise in the World of Finance
Through these experiences, he highlights the importance of trust in finance, emphasising transparency and data quality for navigating a data-driven world. Driven by an insatiable desire to learn, he seized the opportunity to pursue two Double Degree programmes offered by Cattolica: a bachelor's degree jointly awarded with Bangor University in Wales, and a master's degree in partnership with the prestigious London School of Economics. The transition to Amsterdam had its personal and professional bumps, but Niccolò’s desire to enjoy this new experience pushed him to never demoralise himself and remember that all negative feelings come to an end. Niccolò’s diverse experience, working both as client and advisor, is a perspective he considers crucial for a successful career in finance. Niccolò emphasises that investors are people first, and people appreciate transparency and trust, alongside open communications; these aspects are key if we want to maintain trust in a data-driven future. This is why Niccolò, and his current company are prioritising quality information over quantity, and meaningful, transparent data can be key to fostering trust. Niccolò’s story is like a road with different exits that each have their own uniqueness and flair about them, through his international mobility he has become a well-rounded professional and developed valuable personal skills that he implements in his work every day.

From Sydney to Milan: Jonah’s Semester of Sport, Travel and Cuisine
For six months, the 22-year-old from Sydney found himself immersed in new rhythms: cappuccino chats between lectures, weekends across Europe, and classes that pushed him out of his comfort zone and into a more open version of himself. Choosing to study in Milan also means choosing the possibility of travelling elsewhere, getting to know other cultures, cuisines, and beautiful spots. For Jonah Clarke, 22, his exchange programme at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore included trips to Sardinia, Corsica, Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Austria. For someone from Australia, it’s a whole new world – just to get to Milan, he had to take a 16-hour flight to Dubai and then a 5-hour flight to Milan. “That’s what you really get here at Cattolica – not only Italian people from other parts of Italy besides Milan, but also from every other country.”. Although his classes were entirely in English and filled mostly with international students, Jonah found that knowing some Italian made a difference – even outside the classroom. Besides all the fun memories, Jonah will take back home not taking himself too seriously and being able to have a laugh, being there for people when they need to chat and be more supportive.

What if studying internationally could open new doors, both personally and professionally? What if, instead of waiting for clarity, she looked for it through experience? For Julia, the answer started with a simple thought: why not Italy? Sometimes, deciding to pursue a master’s programme isn’t about future plans or a clear idea of what comes next – it can also be an incredible opportunity to study while discovering what truly lights you up. That was the case for Julia Ricci Quintas, who saw applying as a step toward change and an opportunity to explore a new direction . After four years of professional experience, Julia desired something different: to learn a new language, live abroad, and broaden her knowledge through academic exchange . When she came across the Executive Master in International Business at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Milan she remembers the programme coordinator being slightly surprised that she was interested in a course like this. Julia grew up watching RAI television (the Italian Public Broadcasting Company) , listening to Italian music, and hearing stories about her mum’s time working at the Italian Society in Santos, Brazil. It’s no wonder Julia feels she inherited this passion for knowledge – a dream of “learning as much as possible” while she finds new hobbies such as crocheting, knitting and sewing.
For Monica Iyer, this decision was not just a path but a callingone that has profoundly shaped her academic and professional journey, driving her unwavering commitment to protecting human rights, especially those who are often overlooked. Monica Iyer, currently a lawyer and international law &; human rights professor at Georgia State University , is also a proud Università Cattolica alumna. Seeking to enrich her international perspective by adding sociological and economic dimensions to her legal expertise, Monica was admitted to the master's in International Cooperation and Development (MICAD) offered by Università Cattolica’s ASERI Graduate School of Economics and International Relations ( Alta Scuola di Economia e Relazioni Internazionali ) . During her time at Università Cattolica, Monica expanded her worldview significantly beyond her legal background. One highlight of Monica’s experience at Università Cattolica was the community she built lasting connections with professors and fellow students who remain valuable to her professionally and personally. This phenomenon is multi-causal, Monica reiterates, a lot of social inequalities go hand in hand with it and we can even, unconsciously, turn it into a political discussion, when the focus should be on protecting the human rights of those who are vulnerable to the phenomenon. Yet, Monica highlights practical initiatives, such as the USA Hello platform, a non-profit organization where she serves on the board, providing essential information to migrants arriving in the United States (i.e. immigration procedures, enrolment to school, obtaining a driver’s license, etc.).
From Early Tech Curiosity to Linguistic Computing in Milan
Machine translation and Natural Language Processing promise seamless global interaction, but they also raise urgent questions about cultural identity, nuance, and the preservation of minority languages. What happens when a tech-savvy creative leaves the corporate world to follow her curiosity? Sandra Mickwitz, a student at Università Cattolica, traded her job in Germany for a new start in Milan. Now pursuing a Master of Science in Linguistic Computing , she’s applying her skills in Natural Language Processing at Human Technopole – and proving that it's never too late to reinvent your path. Just ask Sandra Mickwitz – a techdriven creative who found her next chapter in Milan through the master’s programme in Linguistic Computing at Università Cattolica. This is what Sandra Mickwitz, and her Italian partner experienced, as any would, Sandra started thinking: What will I do next? What can I even accomplish in these circumstances? Sandra, always searching for her next adventure, started an internship at Human Technopole, where she is currently working on her dissertation and exploring real-world applications of Natural Language Processing (NLP) in the public policy sector. As Sandra explores the intersection of technology and language, her work highlights an essential responsibility: ensuring that advances in AI do not just streamline communication but also honour and protect the invaluable richness of human linguistic diversity.

More Than They Said I Could Be: Gustavo’s Story from Brazil to Università Cattolica
For many students from underrepresented backgrounds, like Gustavo Lopes de Paula from Brazil, society places early limits on their ambitions. “People told me I shouldn’t go to university, that fields like Law, Medicine, or Finance weren’t meant for someone like me,” Gustavo recalls. But for Gustavo, the greatest obstacle wasn’t a lack of opportunity – it was the pressure not to dream. When he was 14, he had his first work experience as a “ jovem aprendiz ” – a Brazilian government programme that helps young people gain work experience and professional training while still in school. With massive competition for public universities in Brazil, Gustavo kept shutting out the voices around him and earned a degree in Marketing and Advertising at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG), securing a spot while competing with 45 people for one place. His next step? He left the calm and provincial Minas Gerais to move to São Paulo, the economic capital of Brazil. When Gustavo moved to São Paulo – a bustling metropolis known as Brazil’s economic heart – this transition wasn’t easy.
Lucia Puccini’s Path: Modelling, Sustainability, and Student Life in Milan
With a passion for sustainability and a love of modelling , she balances student life at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore with an international career – all while staying true to her purpose of making a global impact. As soon as she received her diploma, she swapped the calm and somewhat monotonous vibe of Barranquilla, Colombia, for life among pasta and gelato in Florence, Italy. During her gap year, she also travelled solo through Thailand, volunteered in Chiang Mai, and backpacked across other countries. But when she received the brochure for the BSc in International Relations and Global Affairs at Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan , she knew it was the one. Interested in environmental issues from an early age, she knows what she wants: project planning at the United Nations or Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID) , where many employees have studied International Relations. I just switched agencies after a short modelling pause to adjust to university, and now I’m reintroducing it into my life,” she says. Right before moving to Milan, she spent three months living in Shanghai, China, for modelling.

Home News &; Stories Students and alumni An American sports lover An American sports lover Stephen Mininni lives in Lexington North Carolina (a small town of about 30,000 people) and studies at University of North Carolina at Charlotte . At Università Cattolica , Stephen is living a new lifestyle: experiencing new foods, people and places. American Stephen, the American sports lover, went to two Italian football games and brought his enthusiasm with him. To his surprise, Italians were even crazier fans than he expected, and he partook in the singing and cheering that's so customary of Italian football spectators. He brought his inner adventurer with him as well, hopping on subway cars to random stops, exploring areas and then trudging back to Via Carducci. Aside from having just tons and tons of fun, Stephen is intrigued by the number of differences between Americans and, well, everyone else. In the United States, Stephen mentions, there's a general proclivity in Americans to emphasize work (I'm sure you've all seen at least one American humblebrag how much work he/she is doing or has to do).

Dictionary Dreams to Medical Reality: Elena's Inspirational Voyage
Through her experiences, Elena showcases the power of embracing diversity and fostering inclusivity. Given her multicultural background, Elena experienced some challenges blending in while growing up. Going to Rome to study at Università Cattolica's 6-year Single-Cycle MD in Medicine and Surgery helped her in the process of understanding herself. Elena, despite not enjoying being in the spotlight, chose to confront this challenge by immersing herself more in Università Cattolica’s community . Elena never believed she would be the person to achieve this, and as she started to become more active in the medical community, students from Asia started contacting her about how to enrol and become a part of this exciting experience. As Elena shared her deep love for medicine, she remembered a special present from her parents: a dictionary given to her as a little girl. Upon returning to Rome to obtain her degree in Medicine and Surgery, Elena came back with a completely different mindset.
