LUIS PIEK
Senior Tunnel Engineer at Arup
"The Master in Tunnelling and Tunnel Boring Machines at the Politecnico of
Torino was an excellent opportunity for me. It provided a well-balanced mix of
academic professors, engineering consultants, and tunnel contractors in an
intimate environment that was unique in the world. Professor Peila and Pelizza
have built a program that gives students access to some of the best engineering
minds in the field of underground construction. Since graduation, I have
utilized the program to continue my tunnelling career. I would recommend this
Masters course to other engineering students who want to become professional
engineers, contractors, or owner representatives in the field of Tunnels and
Tunnel Boring Machines".

"By attending the II level 2003/2004 Master
edition in Tunneling and Tunnel Boring Machines at Turin Polytechnic I’d not
have really imaged the extremely positive sequel immediately later I
encountered since the gained return back value is definitively worth. Personal
experience conveyed myself to realization of hard rock and soft ground tunnels
in Italy and abroad, even to back to Turin as teacher to keep lessons.
The Academy is highly training, takes care
up till to minor details, gives the basis to undertake the next working career
rather improves the actual one, allows to network with this “small” tunnel
world sector by matching with pure experts and big names of the industry.
To people who are on the way to attend
this Course, furthermore, I invite to consider the familiar climate at
classrooms, the occasion to link international friendship and the great
experience to live an Italian experience in a cool city."
