The College “Camillo Golgi” is one of the ten Colleges managed by EDiSU (a special agency of the University of Pavia that is in charge of all the activities for the so called “right of study”). It is titled to prof. Camillo Golgi, the Nobel Prize for the Medicine, professor of Histology and Pathology and Rector of the University of Pavia.

The College can be easily reached from the railway station and from the motorway Milano – Genova; the College has a big parking reserved to the students and the guests upon request.
The College has 327 single rooms (with bathroom) where students attending different degree courses, Ph. D. students, postgraduate students coming from different Countries, not only Italy, live together sharing their experiences and culture. Students of the University of Pavia can require accommodation in the college through an application published in the institutional website of EDiSU (www.edisu.pv.it).

The College manages cultural events (open to the town) and supervision activities to support the academic studies. The College is a place where the students help each other to improve as Men and Women, pushing themselves to success in the study and in the social life. The Golgi’s Teams take part in the InterCollege Competition, managed every year from the CUS.

The students and guests have to respect the Rules of the College Community and of the College; the needs of the students have the priority. The students have to collaborate with the staff of the Collegio to guarantee the good functioning and to manage the cultural and sportive events.
