If you’re an engineer who wants to study in Italy, you must go to the Politecnico of Milan – it’s the most famous and prestigious university in Italy for engineering.
If you want to then work in Italy, it will definitely help to have a qualification from the Politecnico, in addition to the contacts it can provide in the world of work in Milan.
From one of our writers, we learn that the Politecnico has got some great digital innovation facilities and initiatives, and some extra-curricula activities which is important in Italy as university campus life is very different from an American or English view of college life.
