At least 100 students from Africa will be admitted into the prestigious Milano School of Business in Milan, Italy.

The opportunity comes as part of the benefits of a partnership contract between the Italian institution and their representatives in Africa, Euro Vision Ventures.

According to the Chief Executive Officer of Euro Vision Ventures, Dozie David Atueyi, the initiative is part of a drive to expose aspiring business executives from the African continent to the best management education available in Europe.

He said. “For the past one year, we have recruited students from Africa for education in Europe. Now, we have signed an exclusive deal to take students to one of the greatest cities in Europe on a fraction of their budget.”

The scholarships offered will cover as much as 75% of the tuition fees for courses that “are available in hospitality management, accounting, management consulting, sales and marketing, engineering, real estate, sports management, fashion and law”, he said.

The school runs an academic calendar with the Fall Semester from October to January; the Spring Semester from February to May and a Summer School programme from June to September. Admissions will commence in February for the Summer School.
