Learning outcomes
During the teachings students will be learning about the different forms of enterprise that populate the wine-making sector, with a focus on their specific peculiarities. The main goal is that of describing the motivations and different roles played by firms of diverse organisations, dimensions and scope within the mixed market-state national economy, and their role in the global wine-production sector.
The types of firms examined range from the simplest to the most complex, transiting through the limited company and cooperative firms, all the way to the major multinational firms, such as Anheuser-Busch InBev, Holdings such as Heineken, Kirin and Asashi Group, and Diageo, Pernod Ricard and Carlsberg.

Indeed, students enrolled in a Double/Joint degree programme will be able to obtain both the degree of the University of Verona and the degree issued by the Partner University abroad - where they are expected to attend part of the programme -, in the time it normally takes to gain a common Master’s degree. The institutions concerned shall ensure that both degrees are recognised in the two countries.
Places on these programmes are limited, and admissions and any applicable grants are subject to applicants being selected in a specific Call for applications.
