One of the unexpected perks here is how much emphasis there is on innovation and entrepreneurship. Polimi doesn’t just teach theory; there are actual chances to test business ideas, create prototypes, join incubators (like PoliHub), and work with mentors. Even in undergraduate courses, there’s a push to apply what you’re learning: whether it’s designing something new, modelling business cases, or collaborating with outside companies. If you’ve got energy and ideas, you can find many outlets to try them. I love being here genuinely.
