The Design Village (TDV) has signed an MOU with Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI), School of Design Italy to strengthen their academic ties and foster collaboration in the field of design education. This agreement will pave the way for a rich exchange of knowledge and resources between the two prestigious institutions aiming to provide students with a global perspective and enhance their skills and competencies.
The objective of this collaboration is to promote academic exchange and teaching cooperation between POLIMI and TDV, through student exchange activities for either PSSD, Integrated Product Design, Communication Design, Interior and Spatial Design, or Product, Space, and Interior and Fashion and Textile Design Master programs.
Speaking about the previously held association between TDV and POLIMI, through the joint studio, Dr. Valentina Auricchio, the Assistant Professor and Senior Researcher at Politecnico di Milano, had said “I believe that students have lived a life learning experience which will for sure leave a mark for their future. As a professor, I have enjoyed allowing this to happen and I believe that this kind of educational activities should become part of a students curriculum.”
The vision of this MOU will be achieved through educational exchange, and student engagement opportunities organized by both institutes. The Design Village will also organize the next joint studio in February 2024, which will welcome faculty members and learners from TU Delft (Netherlands) and Politecnico di Milano (Italy).
Politecnico di Milano is a renowned institution globally recognized for its excellence in design education. With a rich history of academic achievements, POLIMI prepares students to excel in the ever-evolving design industry.
