22Sep, 2026

Sant’Anna Institute and Napoli Women have launched a new international partnership combining academic study, professional soccer, and cultural immersion in Southern Italy.
This Fall, Sant’Anna welcomed the first students participating in the program, who will spend the academic year completing university coursework in Sorrento while taking part in experiences developed in collaboration with Napoli Women.
Students can explore areas including sportmanagement, performance psychology, technical and tactical analysis, video analysis, sports nutrition, and the operations of a professional Serie A Women club, alongside courses across Sant’Anna’s academic departments.
The experience also connects students with the Campania region, allowing them to engage with the culture and communities of Sorrento, Naples, and the surrounding area throughout their academic year.This collaboration represents an important opportunity to offer international students an authentic and interdisciplinary experience that connects higher education, sport, and community.”Cristiana Panicco, President of Sant’Anna Institute
The partnership expands Sant’Anna’s experiential learning opportunities and marks the beginning of continued collaboration with Napoli Women to create new academic and professional experiences for international students.
