Several initiatives in the framework of the Erasmus+
Programme and other extra-EU mobility programmes aim at achieving the most ambitious goal: the attainment of a
double qualification (for instance, a degree in Engineering or Architecture
from Politecnico di Torino plus the equivalent qualification awarded by another
foreign university located in the EU or in extra-EU countries), through a
shared course of study, which takes place partially in one university and
partially in the other.
If you are interested in this opportunity, in the
calls for application you can find specific information on the institutions
which have signed Double degree agreements with Politecnico di Torino.
Double degree agreements entail a period of stay at
the partner university, ranging from a minimum of one academic year to a maximum
of two. The most common structure is one year of study abroad, plus one
semester for writing the thesis (totally about 18 months abroad); therefore, the
attainment of the double degree requires a one-semester extension in the
duration of studies.
If you go abroad to study at a European or
extra-European university for the attainment of the double degree, you can
benefit from a scholarship for a maximum of 18 months.
