The Politecnico di Milano. Politecnico is one of the most outstanding universities in the world, ranked 17th in the world, 6th in Europe, and 1st in Italy among technical universities, according to QS World University Ranking - Engineering & Technology 2018 Founded in 1863, it is the largest school of Architecture, Design, and Engineering in Italy, with two primary campuses located in Milan, the heart of fashion and design industries, and five campuses based around the Lombardy region of the most industrialized areas of Europe. Many influential scientists and architects studied and taught here, including Achille Castiglioni, Gio Ponti, Renzo Piano, and Aldo Rossi - both Pritzker Prize in 1990 and 1998 respectively - and Giulio Natta, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1963. Politecnico di Milano is organized into 12 Departments, responsible for the planning of the research strategies, and 4 Schools, responsible for the organization of education, 2 of them covering the fields of Engineering, 1 focused on Architecture, Urban Planning and Construction Engineering, and 1 School devoted to Design. Thanks to a firm internationalization policy, several study programs are taught entirely in English, attracting an ever-increasing number of talented international students, now forming a diverse community from more than 100 countries. In 2015/2016, 22% of the students enrolled in the Master of Science Programmes were international. Inter and multidisciplinary approaches are fostered throughout the academic career, particularly at the Ph.D. School and the ASP (Alta Scuola Politecnica), a school for young talents from all over the world, develop their skills in a teamwork context to pursue complex innovation projects. Teaching is closely related to research, a fundamental commitment that enables high international standards to achieve results while creating connections with the business world. Strategic research is carried out mainly in energy, transport, planning, management, Design, mathematics and natural and applied sciences, ICT, built environment, and cultural heritage, with more than 250 laboratories. One of them is a Wind Tunnel (unique in the world for configuration and features), a Crash Test Centre, PoliFAB (the University’s lab for micro and nano production), and PoliFactory. In this laboratory, new design processes are developed. -
