INTERNATIONALIZATION
International Mobility
Scuola Italiana Design with Galileo Visionary District promotes internationalization through collaborations with global entities, institutions and academic realities. Over the past three years, we have consolidated strategic partnerships in Europe, Latin America, India and other regions to develop innovative projects and educational pathways.
Erasmus+
Erasmus+ is the European Union’s program for education, training, youth and sports in Europe.
Through mobility experiences in Europe, students can immerse themselves in new cultural, social and professional contexts, developing design, language and intercultural skills. Erasmus+ provides a unique opportunity to engage with different design methodologies, broadening one’s view of the field and building a network of international relationships. An experience of personal and professional growth, preparing to understand the global dynamics of design and to face the challenges of the international market with a critical and creative spirit.
Scuola Italiana Design is organized to ensure continuity and flexibility in student mobility, pending recognition scheduled for the next Academic Year.
At Scuola Italiana Design, Erasmus+ Program activities are managed by a dedicated office.
