Azerbaijan-Italy University (AIU) is a joint initiative between the two countries aiming to promote education, research and innovation by deploying the made-in-Italy know-how. Politecnico di Torino (Engineering field), together with LUISS (Management), Politecnico di Milano (Architecture and Design), University of Bologna (Food Science), and La Sapienza University (Product Design), is part of the academic task force established to create a new international initiative, hosted in the campus of ADA University in Baku.
Politecnico di Torino, similarly to what other universities are planning in complementary technical and scientific fields, will design new degree programs and activities in the areas of electrical and computer engineering, as well as agritech and water resource management, with a focus on laboratory infrastructures. The initiative also includes collaboration in the field of third-level education (PhD), lifelong learning, and research, aiming for continuous interchange among academia, institutions, and industry. An additional objective is to foster the development of collaborative projects between the two countries.
Starting from 2024/25 a.y., a joint Bachelor program in Electrical and Electronic Engineering has been activated by PoliTo and ADA.
