Food and packaging design, makers, editorial production, 3D printing, entrepreneurial techniques, ICT ethics and many other incentives to find an innovative approach, which is close to the challenges the students will face when they enter the employment world. This is Designworkshops’ philosophy: it is a week of workshops, organized by the Course of Design Studies of Politecnico di Torino together with business partners and institutions.

This year, like in each edition of the program, the students will be given the opportunity to live design experiences concerning their cultural education, but which are also peculiar: they’re about art, photography, food, publishing industry, technologies and communication through their own methods and means. The objective is to prepare them for their work experiences before they start working as apprentice in a business.

Strong point of the design courses of Politecnico is the continuous debate and dialogue with the productive world. Both workshops and degree courses are based on the communication with the external world, in order to give the students more work opportunities and the chance of dealing with businesses when they’re still studying.
