Support the Amici di Bologna Student Fund

The Amici di Bologna Student Fund was established in 2020 to honor the Bologna Center's 65th anniversary. It stems from the Amici di Bologna Fellowship, established in 2015 by the Amici di Bologna Steering Committee and supported by the generosity of many Bolognesi, but has an expanded goal to support SAIS Europe students in three different but equally important ways, toward their tuition costs, their internships and their extra-curricular activities.

• Fellowship
  Fellowship support alleviates the cost of tuition on students and opens up the SAIS doors to a broader and diverse range of applicants.


• Internships
  Allowing students to choose their internship experience disregarding of industry sector and remuneration is an impactful way to allow students to take advantage of the myriad opportunities of an international career and encourages them to pursue their professional goals.


• Experiential Learning
  SAIS puts equal emphasis on in-class learning as well as learning on the field and by experience. Supporting experiential learning opportunities gives students a comparative advantage in their preparation and future career.

Since its inception the Fund has benefitted 28 fellowship recipients, 14 internship funding recipients and 46 students who went on student trips, for a total of 88 students. During the event, you will have the occasion to meet some of them and hear from their voices how important the Amici di Bologna Student Fund has been.

All funds raised will be equally split among these areas and will secure maximum outreach and benefit to the students as they go through their experience at SAIS Europe.
