The Institut Barcelona d'Estudis Internacionals has recently signed an Exchange Agreement with the Università degli Studi di Trento and the Università Bocconi, both located in Italy, expressing the convenience of strengthening the relations between these centers.

The purpose of these agreements within the Erasmus+ framework is to provide a framework for the exchange of IBEI master students during a semester.

The University of Trento is specialized in issues related to security and has two programs in this area: the Master in European and International Studies and the Master in International Security Studies.

The Università Bocconi provides undergraduate, graduate and post-graduate education, in addition to a range of double degree programs, in the fields of economics, management, finance, law, political science and public administration.
