ICT services for students
Many Politecnico programmes require students to use a personal laptop. From your laptop, log on to the Virtual Desktop platform, where you will find the specific software applications you need for your academic work. To use the service: connect your laptop to any of the network points available in the classroom using your own cable (the desks are equipped with an Ethernet port, but no cable); configure Advanced Wired Access to the network (Virtual Desktop is not accessible from the Wi-Fi network); follow the instructions in the Virtual Desktop website to configure the connection software.
The Politecnico di Milano also offers an extensive network infrastructure and a wide range of software to support students' individual study inside the campus. For additional details:
