Language requirements

Language of instruction: Italian and English (students may choose).

Certification of language proficiency is recommended but not necessary. All courses and studios have limited places and will be assigned on the “first come first served” criteria. Due to the high demand for popular courses (e.g. English taught studios and courses), it is not possible to guarantee access to a specific lecture and studio. Most professors are however available for English language support during the classes that are taught in Italian, and study materials are often available in English as well.
Extra-curricular Italian courses are offered in both semestered for a fee. 

When can you apply?

Design students in their 6th or 7th semester, architecture students who are in their 6th, 7th or 8th semester, and landscape architecture students who are in their 2nd semester of master levels at the time of application.
