Abstract

More than 4 years ago, we had a promising encounter here at the Italian Academy. We brought the Director of Sapienza’s H2CU together with two brilliant Columbia professors from Italy, and discussed ideas for a joint Columbia/Sapienza program. Universities often sign agreements, but these agreements rarely lead to real-world programs that are so successful. That first meeting at the Academy led to many others, giving birth to one of Columbia’s most innovative and attractive programs. Each of the persons and institutions involved in it has enriched the program with valuable skills, expertise, and enthusiasm, making it a unique entity.
