The Romeo and Enrica Invernizzi Foundation is donating €250,000 to the Politecnico di Milano as a contribution to support housing for PhD students.

This funding will be used to lower the cost of accommodation for PhD students staying in Politecnico residences, ensuring that housing expenses account for only 20-25% of their scholarship, thereby increasing their disposable income to help cover the cost of living in Milan.

Thanks to the Romeo and Enrica Invernizzi Foundation, 40 PhD students will be hosted in one of the Politecnico managed residence at a 30% reduced rate compared to current costs. This will allow them to live in Milan for the entire three-year duration of their PhD at annual rates ranging between €3,600 and €4,380 (equivalent to €300-€365 per month, depending on the residence).
