Vision and Mission of Luiss Guido Carli
The Luiss Vision
We are an international university specializing in the social sciences, dedicated to providing tools for understanding and navigating complexity.
In a world increasingly driven by data, we combine the methodological rigor of the social sciences with the frontiers of Artificial Intelligence and STEM disciplines to cultivate informed leaders who can interpret and guide change.
We believe in education that fosters vision, independent judgment, and decision-making skills to create value for society, businesses, and institutions.
Through teaching, research, and ongoing dialogue with institutions and businesses, Luiss Guido Carli is an ecosystem where knowledge translates into social, economic, and environmental impact.
The Mission that guides our actions
Our mission is to make a positive, transformative, and lasting impact on society by shaping a new generation of change leaders and citizens of the future.
We prepare students to navigate a constantly evolving landscape by developing interdisciplinary skills, advanced analytical tools, and the ability to turn knowledge into action.
We foster critical thinking, autonomy, and a sense of responsibility, shaping individuals who can actively drive change and navigate complex, international environments.
We turn knowledge into action through our unique connection with the business and institutional sectors, ensuring a 95% employment rate one year after graduation.
We promote social mobility through a substantial investment in scholarships (with over 2,000 currently active) and programs tailored to our brightest students, thereby valuing merit and fostering inclusion.
Our approach is based on:
- critical thinking, to analyze and interpret reality
- interdisciplinarity, to tackle complex phenomena
- scientific research as a catalyst for innovation
- collaboration, to create shared solutions
- social responsibility, which guides academic action.
Inspired by these principles, Luiss aims to develop well-rounded individuals who can contribute to sustainable transformation on a global scale.

"An educational model that combines social sciences and emerging technologies to address global challenges"
The Luiss educational model integrates the social sciences, STEM disciplines, and artificial intelligence to develop interdisciplinary skills and advanced analytical tools. We prepare students to turn critical thinking into action, tackling complex issues and making a real impact for businesses and institutions.
In Undergraduate programs, this approach takes shape through the Engaged Learning model: an immersive and participatory experience based on real cases, project work, simulations, and constant engagement with real-world professional dynamics. This method enhances the ability to apply knowledge and develop independent thinking.
In the Graduate programs, the SMART model combines academic excellence, a multidisciplinary approach, and advanced digital technologies, integrating Artificial Intelligence tools, simulation environments, and activities focused on strategic problem-solving. Ongoing dialogue with managers, professionals, and international faculty further strengthens the connection to contemporary global scenarios.
Thanks to a strong connection with the business world, this approach translates into real opportunities, with a 95% employment rate one year after graduation.
