Accommodation
All students enrolled at Politecnico di Milano can apply for residences (PhD students and post-degree master students 1st and 2nd level included). Also foreign students participating to international mobility programmes such as Erasmus Programme, internship, double degree, etc. can be admitted.
Nonetheless, the Politecnico di Milano cannot guarantee all students a place in residences and in fact some students choose to live in privately rented housing. Visit: http://www.residenze.polimi.it/?l=1
Student Life
Lombardia is one of the largest regions in northern Italy and, thanks to its geographical position, it is close to some of the most characteristic panoramic countryside for the tourist who wants to get to know our country better: the mountains of the Alps and the renown ski resorts, the beaches of Liguria or the Venetian coast, always full of life in the summer months.
