Visiting periods / stage

Visiting doctoral students are foreign or Italian doctoral students enrolled in foreign universities invited to the departments to carry out a mobility period.

Some forms of financial support are available within specific initiatives such as Erasmus+ programmesErasmus Mundus Programmes, special International Programmes, and local governmental programmes.

Visiting PhD exchanges may be agreed with professors in the departments and they are managed directly by the departments, not by the PhD School. Candidates should contact directly the faculty members of the department and areas of interest. It is possible to find the contacts of the departments at the following link (list of departments)

You will need the approval of a professor of your exchange visit plan to be able to apply for mobility funding.

The contact for administrative issues concerning Erasmus programmes is erasmus@polimi.it.

The Erasmus Programme offers support for mobility of students within European countries.

Politecnico di Milano welcomes PhD candidates from other European universities under this programme.

Selection procedures are managed within the home university. For PhD candidates, after selection for the programme, the Politecnico has to accept the students for mobility, so it is preferable to make contact with a research group in advance, to plan the visit.

For general information about the Erasmus Programme at Politecnico di Milano please visit the Polimi website.
