Centro Editoriale Accademico (Academic Publishing Centre)
The Unicollege Academic Publishing Centre serves as the university press for Unicollege – strategically operating within the fields of linguistic and social sciences (its major academic cores) as well as of forensics, political science and affairs, business, and humanities. It stands as a reference point not only for Unicollege’s three campuses (in Florence, Mantua, and Turin) but also for the international academic community.
The Academic Publishing Centre promotes monographic works, such as those contained in the Acta and Scientia section (see below), as well as individual essays featured in the Working Papers section (see below). Additionally, there is a special series titled Dissertations dedicated to our students’ best publishable work (i.e., research papers, essays, and theses).
The Academic Publishing Centre comprises the Scientific Directorate, the Editorial Board, and the Scientific Committee.
