Career

cHInA - Qian“As an international design centre, here there is plenty of information and wonderful design fairs in different fields (…). As a designer, studying in Milan is just like having a rich banquet in front of you and you may choose whatever you like or want, then enjoy it.”

BrAzIl – Arthur “The University and infrastructure is very robust, it has a lot of laboratories, all very well equipped and large. Something that pleasantly surprised me. Classes are very dynamic: they have a lot of interaction, also with international professors: for example, I had a course with a professor from Chicago.”

rUSSIA – Anna“In our classes there were many different international students from all over the world – from China, Brazil, Sweden, France, Mexico, Colombia and etc. It has been a very interesting experience which allowed me to communicate with students with different backgrounds, cultures and lifestyles (…)I never could have such kind of experience in my home university.”

InDIA – rajendra“The best point for this course is its diversity of culture in terms of course contents and selection of subject, which are very well suited as per the international standard of any reputed university.”“The overall experience in this course during my one year stay makes me more mature in terms of professional upliftment and personality development.”
