TheUniversity of Sannio (Italian:Università degli Studi del Sannio, UNISANNIO) is a university located inBenevento, southern Italy. Founded in 1998 (being previously a part of theUniversity of Salerno), the University of Sannio is organized in three faculties with almost 6,000 students.
The University of Sannio began as a part of theUniversity of Salerno. Initially, it was included in the four-year plan 1986–90. Through Rectorial decrees on September 10, 1990, the following departments were set up: the Faculty of Economic and Social Sciences (now Faculty of Economics) with the degree courses of Banking Economics, Financial Economics, Insurance Economics, and Statistics, the Faculty of Engineering with a degree course in Computer Engineering. In the three-year plan 1991–93, the Faculty of Science was set up with additional degree courses in Biology and Geology.
The Faculty of Economic and Social Sciences was managed by a Technical committee until 31 October 1994. The Faculty of Engineering was managed by the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Salerno. Since November 1, 1994 both Faculties have had an autonomous Faculty Board.
The Consortium for the Promotion of Culture and University Studies has contributed to the implementation of the university in Benevento and is still playing a major part in its promotion. This organisation was established in 1987 by the Chamber of Commerce, the Province of Benevento and the Town Hall ofBenevento. Successively, other public Institutions have joined the Consortium.
