At Università Cattolica, history, philosophy, classical and modern literature, archaeology and art history are not confined to the study of the past. Rather, they bring into the present and the future the great humanistic tradition embodied in the Faculty of Arts and Philosophy, whose roots lie deep in the medieval university system from which European culture emerged.
In line with its identity, alongside its commitment to providing future researchers and teachers with a solid and rigorous education, the Faculty combines this tradition with new areas of knowledge. Their interaction gives rise to new cultural perspectives, with valuable outcomes for future career opportunities as well.

In response to the restructuring of three-year undergraduate and two-year graduate degree programmes, the Faculty has introduced seven degree programmes, offered at the Milan campus, the Brescia campus, both campuses, or in collaboration with other Faculties as interfaculty programmes.
The Faculty of Arts and Philosophy also offers graduate degree programmes, some in collaboration with other Faculties of Università Cattolica. These programmes give graduates of three-year undergraduate degree programmes—which already have a strong professional focus—the opportunity to further develop their knowledge and skills in preparation for higher-level roles in different areas of society.
Sectors such as the publishing industry and the promotion of cultural heritage show, for example, that the humanities and the new frontiers of technology and communication are no longer separate, parallel worlds. Preparing people who are equipped to meet challenges of this scale requires a broad and solid education, a wide-ranging cultural background and a historical perspective.
