Read moreRome has always been a city of stories—where ancient monuments meet modern creativity, and where cinema has found one of its most iconic homes. With the Rome Film Fest returning this year from 15 to 26 October 2025, the city once again becomes a global stage for the film industry. It’s the perfect moment to explore how your future in film can begin here, with the MBA in Film Industry at the European School of Economics.
Join us in Rome this September for the new academic year—and in October, immerse yourself in your first cinematic industry experience with one of the city’s most important cultural events: the Rome Film Fest.
Offered in English across our international campuses, the MBA in Film Industry is a one-of-a-kind programme that combines advanced business knowledge with a deep immersion in the entertainment and film world. And when it comes to studying cinema, Rome stands unmatched—home not only to a rich cinematic tradition but also to Cinecittà Studios, the beating heart of Italy’s film industry.
Choosing Rome for your MBA means positioning yourself in Italy’s premier hub for cinema. Cinecittà, often called the “Hollywood on the Tiber”, has hosted legendary directors such as Federico Fellini and Martin Scorsese and continues to serve as a world-class centre for film production, post-production, and innovation.
From international film sets to emerging independent studios, the city offers students access to a thriving ecosystem of creative professionals, production companies, and distributors. Throughout the academic year, students engage directly with this world through tailored industry experiences, visits, and exclusive networking events.
