Student review [#20968]
for Mechanical Engineering
at Polytechnic of Torino - Polito
Torino, Italy
After the hardest and most theoretical first years, I passionately followed this degree course which is well suited to my interests and abilities. I have been involved in several workshops and projects thanks to which, in addition to a good understanding of the subject, good experience in teamwork is obtained.
The study plan in general is in step with current technologies and market needs. Many possibilities of experiences abroad are offered such as a double degree, Erasmus and completion of the thesis at a foreign university. The qualification obtained is excellent for spending in Italy, but also abroad (not so much for the name of the university, but for the good preparation it offers).
One of the few in the class was the organization of the lessons, especially during the early years when it was difficult even to find a place in the classroom. For the rest, all the services are extremely efficient.
As for the city, Turin offers all kinds of experiences, combining liveability in my opinion superior to other large Italian cities.
Finding a house is relatively simple and the rental prices are not even comparable to other cities such as Rome or Milan (I would say that it could be half), as well as the cost of living is lower.
There are also excellent student residences that I happened to attend (not live there), where the structures are well managed and the conviviality between the students makes university life functional for study but also for free time.
