Second-Level Master's Degree

The Master's in Territorial Administration and Governance, jointly organized by the School of Government and the “Vittorio Bachelet” Research Center on Public Administrations at LUISS Guido Carli, aims to provide advanced and up-to-date training for those who want to pursue or strengthen a professional and managerial career in territorial administrations and local government.

The Master's program aims to enhance the managerial skills of those already working in local administrations and their ability to build relationships with other public and private stakeholders in the region. It also provides those preparing for leadership roles in local administrations with the opportunity to combine theoretical learning with practical skills, by sharing experiences with current leaders and managers.

The Master’s program, launched in 2012, was jointly organized until the 2015/2016 academic year with the Department for Personnel Policies of the Civil Administration and for Instrumental and Financial Resources of the Ministry of the Interior, and with the National Register of Municipal and Provincial Secretaries – Department for Internal and Territorial Affairs of the Ministry of the Interior.

The course of study is highly professionalizing, with instruction provided by faculty, professionals, and practitioners with extensive experience. It is supported by case studies and group work, and is particularly aimed at:

• Young master's degree graduates who want to take the competitive exam for a career in the prefecture or public management;
• Managers and officials of local authorities;
• Local administrators;
• Executives and officials in state administrations;
• Professionals and consultants.
