On Friday, 7 July 2023 at 5.30 p.m. in Viale Ottavio Mai, the University of Turin will launch a citizen science project with the aim of mapping which languages – besides Italian – are spoken in Turin. All citizens are invited to take part in a real research project to define – through photographs of road signs, store signs and writings in public places, the linguistic landscape of Turin.

The visual testimonies provided by the participants and shared on Firstlife web platform, https://unightlls.firstlife.org/wall developed by the Computer Science Department of the University of Turin, will enable us to outline the linguistic and
cultural profile of our city.
How many and which languages are used in Turin, and in which particular area? Which areas are monolingual and which multilingual? A scientific committee, consisting of professors at the University of Turin, will subsequently analyse the data collected from various points of view – sociolinguistic, socio-political, educational, geographical, economic – and will present the results during the next European Researchers’ Night on 29 and 30 September 2023 at the Giardini Reali.
The initiative is part of the UNIGHT project involving Turin – for the second year, during Europe’s largest research event – as well as Covilhã, Pau, Chambery and Timisoara, and their respective UNITA Alliance partner universities.
The European Researchers’ Night has always promoted society’s participation in the research process: during the event there are many activities proposed by the University of Turin and Politecnico di Torino as well as by local research centres that focus on the scientific contribution that people can make. In particular, citizen science projects rely on the collaboration with citizens to collect data for a mutual
exchange of knowledge.

This event is part of the Luigi Einaudi Campus’ 10-year anniversary celebrations High Apprenticeship Specialisation Courses: open day Open Day of free High Apprenticeship Specialisation Courses organised by the
University of Turin and managed by Corep Torino.
Thursday 6 July 2023, from 4.30 p.m. to 6.30 p.m. – SAA University Hall (via Ventimiglia 115) and online

High Apprenticeship Specialisation Courses, set up by the Law, Computer Science and Management departments, are an excellent opportunity to acquire specific skills and knowledge in professional fields that are in high demand in the labour market.
Thanks to the apprenticeship, the students of the specialised course will have the opportunity to work, from the very beginning of the programme, at major companies, applying what they have learnt during their training.
Enrolment deadline: 5 July 2 p.m. on the website https://www.unito.it/…/open-day-master-alto-apprendistato

The call for applications for this year’s housing services and scholarships, which you can find here, has recently been issued by the Ente Regionale per il Diritto allo Studio Universitario del Piemonte – Edisu (Regional Body for the Right to University Education of Piedmont). From 9.30 am, on July 21 st , it will be possible to apply for these services online.

Remember that in addition to the SPID (digital ID) you must meet the criteria of the ISEE (an indicator of the economic conditions of families seeking financial aid from the government) valid for the right to university study. The ISEE must not exceed € 23,626 and it takes into account the income of the applicant in the year 2020 and his/her assets as of 31/12/2020.

What is the scholarship?

It is a sum of money, split into two instalments, which is awarded to the winner of a public competitive exam among university students who are enrolled full-time or part-time at universities in the Piedmont region and meet the economic criteria indicated in the announcement to qualify for the exam.

What are the housing services?
The housing services consist of supplying students with an apartment, assigned by the Edisu body, in one of the university halls of residence in Turin or in other cities in the Piedmont region where university courses take place. The apartment cannot be chosen by students.
The requirements for applying for the scholarship and the housing services are the same. On the other hand, the deadlines for submitting your application and the dates of publication of the rankings are
different.

The Politecnico di Torino has achieved an excellent result in the QS World University Rankings, one of the world’s most  famous international rankings published every year by the British company Quacquarelli Symonds. In fact, the Politecnico ranked in the top 25% of the best universities in the world, going from the top 25.7% to the top 22.9%, and thus consolidating the upward trend of the past few years.

The Politecnico moved up 9 positions in the world ranking, going from 334 th place to 325th. This result was achieved in spite of the fact that 124 new universities, which were not listed last year, entered the ranking for the first time. This ranking has highlighted, among other positives, the constant improvement of the Politecnico in the Citation per Faculty score, which is a measure of the quality of research being done at an institute. This score is based on the number of citations in scientific publications written by the researchers at a particular university. The Citation per Faculty score puts
the Politecnico in 236th place; this means that the university has moved up 23 places compared to last year.

The Politecnico also moved up 17 places in the ranking of foreign students, confirming its international appeal, and as far as the academic reputation is concerned, it moved up another

There are three important news for those students who want to join the Erasmus+ program in the next years:

– DOUBLED FUNDING
– NO AGE LIMIT
– ANTICIPATED MONEY

The Erasmus program has been renewed for the next 7 years. Yesterday the European Parliament gave the final green light to the project Erasmus+ for the
years 2021-2027. This program, dedicated to training, youth and sport, will see its funding doubled, going from 14.7 billion in the previous years, to more than 28 billion. In the final phases of the negotiation with the Council, deputies managed to obtain an additional amount of 1.7 billion euros. The new Erasmus+ will offer more instruments and resources that will support inclusiveness. The Commission and EU member states are to present action plans to improve access to learning and mobility for those people who always had fewer possibility to take part in the project.

This includes people with disabilities, people living in poverty or in a remote area or coming from an immigration context.
Subsidies will also be given to those unable to cover the first expenses, for example the purchase of travel tickets or the reservation for accommodation. Furthermore, those applications presenting higher costs due to measures to guarantee inclusiveness will not be rejected.

Compared to the previous Erasmus+, the new program will also be available to students attending adult education programs. This will help people of any age and background to acquire new work and life skills, so that they can better adapt to the changes related to the upcoming green and digital transitions, and to the post- pandemic age of Covid-19. The program, which has already been approved by the Council, will come into effect as soon as it is published in the Official Journal of the European Union.

Holden Academy is a degree course (yes, it really is!) that will allow you to obtain a diploma that is equivalent to a three-year degree like DAMS. Clearly, the program and the disciplines are Holden-style. The degree course costs 10,000 euros per year, but don’t be discouraged: Holden Academy also has its special student welfare program, which you could find interesting.

SCHOLARSHIPS
Scuola Holden awards scholarships to applicants with an ISEE (financial situation certificate) value lower than €40,000.
For a.y. 2021-2022 Scuola Holden assigns fifteen 5,000-euro scholarships for each year of course (15,000 for three years).
Two scholarships maximum will be awarded for each test session.
Scholarship winners must present ISEE 2021 Certificate (standard form), confirmed application form and the signed contract within the week we will have sent the results.
ISEE value must be lower than €40,000.
In case the number of applications exceeds the number of scholarships available, the scholarship will be assigned to the student with the lower ISEE value.
Contact a CAF (Fiscal Assistance Centre) in order to get your ISEE Certificate. Get ready in time, even long before taking the admission test, as waiting times could be long. Scuola Holden will only accept applications submitted within two weeks after the day of the admission test.

LOANS
For a.y. 2021-2022 Scuola Holden assigns twenty 5,000-euro loans for each year of course (15,000 for three years) to the first twenty applicants. No number limit for each test session is fixed: all the loans might be assigned after the first admission test session. Once you get your diploma, you have one-year time before starting to repay the loan, in instalments, to the bank. During your degree course you must pay grace period interests. Then you have a 6-month period to pay off your debt (you can do it even more quickly).All of this is possible since Scuola Holden is recognized by Banca Intesa Sanpaolo as one of the schools which can provide loan facilities to their students. For further information contact segreteria@scuolaholden.it.

BONUS MATURITÀ
Students who completed secondary education in 2021 with 100/100 (applies to Italian maturità exam) will receive a 500-euro reduction on their first-year tuition fees. For the following years the whole tuition must be paid.

BONUS “EVERYTHING-AND-NOW”
Students who will have taken the admission test by the end of June and choose to pay for the first-year tuition all at once will receive a 500-euro discount on the three tuition fees. The second- and third-year tuitions can be paid at a later date.

When it comes to the enrolment, everyone (including scholarship winners and students provided with a loan or bonus) pays a 2,000-euro deposit.
One single financial aid (scholarship, loan or bonus) can be received at a time: no combos allowed.
