Dialogue break

During the Open Days, in addition to presentations and informational activities, there is a special time dedicated to the break, an informal opportunity to learn more about SID.

Over coffee and snacks, participants can chat freely with students, faculty and former students, asking questions, listening to experiences and discovering the more authentic side of the school. This relaxed discussion space allows them to delve into curiosities about their education, projects and professional opportunities, in a welcoming atmosphere without formality.

A unique opportunity to experience the atmosphere of SID up close and understand what it means to be a part of it!
