As for all other Italian public universities, the “Politecnico di Torino” (hereafter the “Politecnico”) is an autonomous entity with legal personality under the supervision of the “Ministero l’Università e la Ricerca” (hereafter the MUR). The Politecnico has some 26 000 students spread on over 150 courses (of which 45 bachelor’s degrees shared between the faculties of Engineering and Architecture, 37 masters of sciences, 39 doctorates and 29 specialisation courses).Lieu
Description
The proposed project is a core part of the investment programme of the Politecnico (the so-called “Cittadella Politecnica”) foreseen for the period 1995-2015. In particular, the project covers the second phase of the programme (2006-2008), and includes - inter alia - a new research centre in the automotive sector (in partnership with General Motors).
Objectifs
The overall programme “Cittadella Politecnica” aims at improving and rationalising the infrastructure of the Politecnico, so as to enhance efficiency and quality of education, to increase educational offer, to expand research activities, to reinforce the university’s role in the regional innovation system and to strengthen both regional cohesion and students’ cohesion.

Montant BEI envisagé (montant approximatif)
Up to EUR 50 million.
Coût total (montant approximatif)
EUR 100 million.
Aspects environnementaux
The project comprises new construction of premises for educational activities. Council Directive 97/11/EC on Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), as amended by 2003/35/EC, does not specifically mention facilities for higher education, but these could in some circumstances be seen as urban development projects (thus falling under Annex II of the Directive). The investments by virtue, inter alia, of their nature, size or location, appear unlikely to have a significant effect on environment. The basis for requesting (or not) an EIA by the competent authorities for this second phase, the local planning and approval process and actual/possible significant impacts on protected flora and fauna (Habitats’ and Birds’ Directives) will be verified during project appraisal.
