This program benefits from a specific curatorial approach thanks to the careful selection of portfolios and the presence of visiting professors and tutors who actively participate in debates on the selected themes and suggest the most appropriate strategies to carry out the objectives identified by the students for the entire duration of the residency, within the framework of the New European Bauhaus.
The result is an interdisciplinary training residency program curated by the Polytechnic University of Turin, unique in Italy.
