Background

The agreement to establish Italy-Azerbaijan University was signed on 1st September 2022 at the Azerbaijan Embassy in Rome. The ceremony was attended by President Ilham Aliyev, Rector Hafiz Pashayev of ADA University, and Deputy Rector Simona Tondelli from the University of Bologna. This partnership aims to foster knowledge exchange between Azerbaijan and Italy, with a focus on innovation, research, and workforce development in strategic sectors. The University of Bologna is collaborating on the creation of a School of Agricultural and Food Sciences to support Azerbaijan’s agri-food sector. [4] [5]

In 2022, a delegation from Politecnico di Torino, led by Vice-Rector David Chiaramonti, visited Azerbaijan to initiate the development of engineering programs tailored to the country’s technological and infrastructural needs. [6]

At the International Cernobbio Forum on September 6, 2024, President Ilham Aliyev highlighted the university as an example of growing international cooperation between Azerbaijan and Italy. He emphasized that students would benefit from exposure to Italian language, culture, and heritage, fostering future collaboration. [7]

Currently based at ADA University's Baku campus, the university is expanding with two new buildings expected to be completed by September 2025. [1] [8]
