The classes are super big and modern. There are projectors and also white boards that are completely digital. However, a lot of the facilities are in different locations than where the hospital and IMS classes are held. This is because the main campus of Bicocca University is located in Milan, instead of Bergamo city where the English medical programme is situated. Additionally, the main medical campus (Italian course) is actually located in Monza, which means that all of the labs and most libraries are out there. All three of these locations are connected by train, with both Bicocca and Monza being about 50 minutes away from Bergamo (IMS location) by a single train. The nice thing is that the university has a partnership with Bergamo University, which means that students can use any of the facilities available to Bergamo students. In the hospital canteen a full meal which in Italy means a primi which is like pasta or a rice dish, a secondi which is usually like some kind of meat or fish, a contorno which is a vegetable side and a dessert costs only 1.10 euros regardless of your income.​
