John Cabot University’s Center for Graduate Studies is the hub for the University’s graduate programs. It provides classrooms, study areas, and support for graduate students and faculty. It is located in the heart of Trastevere, adjacent to John Cabot’s Guarini Campus, which houses the Frohring Library, computer labs, the Lemon Tree Courtyard, the Aula Magna Regina, and classrooms.
Graduate studies at John Cabot include Master programs in Art History and International Affairs. Together with the Politecnico di Milano’s Graduate School of Management (POLIMI GSom), John Cabot also offers a Master in Luxury Management, and an Executive MBA.
The building hosting the Center for Graduate Studies dates back to 1495. It was built as a home for Cardinal Alessandro Farnese, the future Pope Paul III. In the first half of the 19th century, it passed on to the powerful Bourbon family. Since 1934 it has been part of the adjacent Accademia dei Lincei, the oldest academy in the world dedicated to the study of the humanities and natural sciences. Galileo Galilei, Enrico Fermi, and Vito Volterra were among its members.
The partnership between John Cabot University and POLIMI (Polytechnic of Milan) Graduate School of Management (GSoM) offers the American liberal arts experience combined with a scientific-technological approach. This dual nature provides a unique and comprehensive development of soft and hard skills, which are necessary for students and managers who will be leaders of change. The partnership also guarantees the advantages deriving from double alumni networks and double career services.
POLIMI GSoM and John Cabot University’s Frank J. Guarini School of Business are both accredited by AACSB – the demonstration of an ongoing commitment to excellence in teaching, research, curriculum development and student success. Plus, POLIMI GSoM is a Triple Crown Graduate School of Management with accreditations from AACSB, AMBA, EFMD, which to date have been awarded to just over 100 business schools worldwide.
POLIMI GSoM programs are positioned highly in the most important international rankings, such as those by the Financial Times, QS University, Bloomberg, and The Economist. In 2024 the MBA program of POLIMI GSoM was ranked 6th by the Financial Times for International Course Experience and second among technical universities in Europe.
