Collaboration with Domus Academy (Milan)
As part of its collaboration with Domus Academy in Milan – whose members also serve on the Advisory Committee of the Department’s Programs – the Department of Arts and Humanities drew on Domus’ extensive experience in designing postgraduate programs in the Fine and Applied Arts to develop the “Interaction Design (18 Months/90 ECTS, M.A.)” program. Domus Academy, with a long and distinguished history, is ranked among the top 151-200 universities worldwide in its field according to the QS World University Rankings by Subject 2024. It offers a modern, design-centered education in close collaboration with the Italian industry, renowned companies, and leading professionals, providing students with opportunities to participate in masterclasses, lectures, and collaborations that enhance both specialized and cross-disciplinary skills. In the second semester, certain elective courses have been designed to align in subject matter and content with corresponding courses at Domus Academy. This enables students, through mobility programs (e.g., Erasmus), to attend courses at Domus Academy in Milan, gaining valuable international experience.
