Sergio Noja Noseda (7 July 1931 – 31 January 2008) was an Italian professor of Arabic language and literature and Sharia.

During this period he also served as president of the "Società della Taula" (The Bocconi University Senior Society).

At the same time as he made a career in a private company, Philips Italia, which would carry him to the rank of director general, he always had a deep interest in oriental studies.

He was directed and taught by Monsignor Giovanni Galbiati in the study of the Arabic language.

Having been first appointed Professor of Islamic law at the University of Turin, he later became Professor of Arabic language and literature at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore of Milan where he maintained the chair in Arabic language and literature for more than twenty years.
