The Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, a university center for teaching and research, is based on a model which shaped European educational history. The academic work at the Scuola Normale is traditionally grouped into two divisions, the Faculty of Arts and the Faculty of Sciences. Students can work towards an undergraduate diploma, finishing with a 2nd-level honors degree, or as graduate students, completing a course of study which grants a diploma equivalent to the PhD.
