Strategic orientation
An interdisciplinary approach in facing the challenges of scientific progress
Politecnico di Milano believes that the focus on sustainable development should be as pervasive as possible, in this favoured by an interdisciplinary approach in facing the challenges of scientific progress and technological development. Key enabling factors are the training and awareness-raising of researchers, incentive tools for the generation of synergies between researchers of all disciplines and the availability of large university laboratories and living labs located throughout the territory.
In the 2023-25 period we will: foster interdisciplinary research on sustainability with PhD scholarships on SDG topics; engage in the development of living labs and state-of-the-art infrastructure for research on sustainable development and social innovation; give value to and strengthen the sustainability content in the products of our research activities; showcase our research results on sustainability within our campuses.
