In addition to the two fundamental objectives of teaching and research, the Vanvitelli University promotes the so-called Third Mission, an opening towards the socio-economic context, through valorisation and knowledge transfer, contributing to the civil, social and economic development of the country and, in particular, of its own territory. (Article 1 paragraph 3 of the Statute)
The Third Mission takes shape in many ways. In particular, a distinction can be made between
- Third Mission enhancing research;
- Third Mission developing social, educational and cultural activities.
