| The International University College of Turin Master Scholarships 2011-2012 Posted: 28 Apr 2011 05:09 PM PDT The International University College of Turin (IUC) is now taking applications for the 2011-2012 Academic Year. All students accepted have the possibility of receiving partial and in most cases full scholarships including accommodation, monthly living stipend, travel expenses and more, to attend the university program The IUC was established in 2006 for the interdisciplinary and comparative study of law, economics and finance, in response to the clear lack of a transnational set of normative principles capable of controlling economic processes. The program specifically looks to engage students and young scholars from all over the world with special emphasis on the periphery, or 'global south', with leading figures in economics, law and the humanities. The IUC offers a 1 year LLM program in Comparative Law, Economics and Finance as well as a 2 year MSc.
