About the Venue

Politecnico di Torino is internationally recognized for education, research, innovation, and technology transfer across engineering, architecture, design, and planning. Its main engineering campus is located at Corso Duca degli Abruzzi and is complemented by the Cittadella Politecnica, creating an urban campus with spaces for teaching, research, laboratories, services, and collaboration.

The university has deep roots in Torino's scientific and industrial development. Its origins trace back to the Technical School for Engineers founded in 1859, and the modern Corso Duca degli Abruzzi complex was opened in 1958. Today, the campus reflects the city's strong connection between academic excellence, industrial innovation, and technological progress.

Politecnico di Torino also includes the historic Castello del Valentino, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that hosts activities in architecture, design, and planning. This combination of modern engineering facilities and historic academic heritage provides an inspiring setting for ISICAS 2026.
