Double Degree and Joint Programme

The opportunity to obtain two or more degrees through programs designed to increase students’ international exposure and to enhance the specific strengths of each international partner.

We work with our partners to offer those who study with us international opportunities and to promote high-quality initiatives for the entire community. These are the pillars of our strategy to create an authentically global environment.

Joint Programme

With a minimum duration of one year and with courses delivered in part by the partner institution(s), the program offers highly integrated content throughout the entire learning journey.
Upon completion, participants are awarded a degree issued by the partner institution and a qualification conferred by Politecnico di Milano (e.g. the 1st Level Specialising Master Degree – Master Universitario di I livello).

Executive PhD with Tsinghua University

DBA / Executive PhD in Innovation

The DBA / Executive PhD in Innovation is a 3–4 year research program aimed at senior executives, managers, and entrepreneurs operating across different sectors. Its goal is to equip participants with the skills needed to drive innovation by leveraging approaches and tools drawn from scientific research.

This program is part of a broader and highly strategic context for both our countries (Italy and China): the China–Italy Design Innovation Hub. It is the largest Tsinghua University innovation hub in Europe, co-founded by Politecnico di Milano and Tsinghua University in 2017, in the presence of the Presidents of the respective countries, Sergio Mattarella and Xi Jinping. The Hub is dedicated to research and the education of talent and innovative leaders of the future.

Within this program, POLIMI Graduate School of Management supports the management and delivery of the educational modules and organizes an in-person Study Tour in Milan each year, lasting approximately one week. This “immersion” experience is designed to combine classroom-based discussions with more experiential moments—such as company visits—in order to create unique opportunities for sharing, engagement, and brand awareness.
