Alma Mater Studiorum proudly reaffirms its will and it undertakes to strongly support its identity according to its own Statute – i.e. that of "a public, independent, non-denominational and pluralistic institution" (University Statute, Article 1, paragraph 1).
This definition abides by the deepest values underlying the University of Bologna. It pursues its most ambitious goals and inspires all the institutional activities implemented by the University of Bologna.
Against an ever-changing national and international backdrop marked by sudden crises, the University values are constantly put to test.
The Alma Mater Studiorum not only abides by them, but it is also fully committed to strengthening and implementing them, in the belief that it can play an exemplary role in the university system and within society at large.
