Sapienza, founded in Rome in 1303, on 20th April by a Papal Bull issued by Pope Boniface VIII, boasts a rich historical past and personal background in the educational field, and is today the first-largest State Institution of Higher Education in Italy and Europe for numbers of students, academic professors, lectures and didactic areas. The Sapienza brand is an excellent business card for all its students, since the University plays a leading role in the field of Higher Education and in that of Research and Development at national and international level, and acts as a leader in the economic and social processes on territorial base. Sapienza has earned its international reputation and prestige in the field and this is also due to its academic professors and lectures, to the active participation of its national and international students, to its most famous students, among them we can mention Enrico Fermi and the “Panisperna boys” (a group of young Italian scientists), and also writers, thinkers, politicians, artists, showmen and actors.

Termini is Rome’s main station. Right outside the station, in Piazza dei Cinquecento, is the largest bus terminal in Rome and the access to the city’s two Underground lines (A and B). Tiburtina is the second biggest train station in Rome and is on the underground B line. It is also well connected to the city centre by buses.At Trastevere and Ostiense stations stops the train to and from Fiumicino Airport; at Ostiense also stops the underground B line (more information on www.ferroviedellostato.it andwww.romatermini.it).
Tiburtina station is the main bus terminal in Rome (information on international lines: www.eurolines.it)
Metrebus is the Rome public transport system, which incorporates different types of transport service:

underground (metro), urban trains (treno metropolitano) and busses and trams (autobus e tram). With Metrebus tickets you can travel on these three means of transport.There are different types of tickets: the cheaper option is BIT (Integrated Single Ticket), it costs 1,00 Euro, it can be used on all buses, subways and trams in Rome. This ticket allows up to 75 minutes travel after the initial validation on the buses and trams and it is valid only for 1 ride on the subway or 1 ride on an urban train. For more details: www.atac.roma.it. Taxis in Rome are white, they have an identification name and number on the front door and show a taximeter inside.They can be easily found in every part of the city at special taxi ranks, or you can call one of the numerous Radio Taxi companies and an operator will get in touch with the nearest taxi (06 3570 - 06 6645 - 06 8822 - 06 4157 - 06 4994 - 06 5551, information on http://www.comune.roma.it/mobilita).
Banks are usually open Monday through Friday from 8.30 am until 1.30 pm. In the afternoons, the bank opening hours vary according to the bank, but they are usually open from
2.30 pm or 3.00 pm until 4.00 pm or 4.30 pm. Some banks are open non-stop from 8.30 am until 4.00 pm and/or on Saturday mornings.

The Euro, the common European currency, circulates in Italy and in the other European member states. There are 8 euro coins denominated in 2 and 1 euros, then 50, 20, 10, 5, 2 and 1 cents and 7 euro notes denominated in 500, 200, 100, 50, 20, 10 and 5 euros.
In Rome shops are almost always provided with credit card service. Anyhow we point out that some small shops, stalls in markets, rooms for rent or bed & breakfast are usually not provided with credit card service
Telephones that take coins have become very rare in Italy. You can find them in Termini station, in some bars, hotels and metro stations. Otherwise you need to buy a phone-card available in any tobacconist’s, post office, most newsstands and some bars. International calls can
