Student Politics
Our ideas
We want more than 5 exam calls
We propose to add at least two more exams tries per year (we have a minimum of 5 at the moment), adding also extraordinary exams sessions for students during mid-term break
Study spaces
We obtained an allocation of no less than €4.5m to add new studio spaces and to wire existing ones. We continue to work on adding more!
no tax area 30.000
Like our ex-Rector said and proposed, we think that it is necessary to extend the no-tax area from €22.000 to €30.000 (ISEE): studying shouldn't be hindered by economic obstacles!
Free aluminum water bottles
To avoid the umpteenth use of plastic bottles, let's use water dispensers, and to encourage it we propose PoliMi to give every student an aluminum water bottle, for free
150 hours positions for wealth, not merit
150 hours positions are currently assigned by a merit-criterion. Since it's a means to let less wealthy students to gain some money, why are positions being assigned by a merit criterion instead of a wealth (ISEE) criterion?
Cheaper canteens and bars
The canteen at PoliMi is very expensive, and it is cheaper to eat outside. At PoliTo they managed to have meals for €2.50: let's demand that PoliMi not be outdone!
Upcoming events
cultural activities and trips
Every year we organise several cultural activities and trips for students, free of charge or at affordable prices (also thanks to the contribution of the Politecnico di Milano). We are doing this because we think that the university is much more than a space for teaching, and that it can be experienced as a place for socialising and inclusion.
Discover our upcoming events on the link below, and follow us on Instagram not to miss them!
Secular, non-partisan, indipendent
Studenti Indipendenti is a Politecnico di Milano students representative list, free from lobbies and political parties and, of course, completely indipendent
For us representing students is a means and not an aim: we strive for increase students' rights throughout student representation in administrative bodies and activism as a students group in thematic areas like feminism, environmentalism, antiracism, antimafia, antifascism, LGBTQIA+...
We operate both as an association and as a representative list at PoliMi but also in other universities in Milan (Studenti Indipendenti Statale and Bicocca, Rete della Conoscenza Milano), and in Italy (Link - Coordinamento Universitario, Rete della Conoscenza). Always by the students' side.
Useful information
Sometimes it's difficult to orientate at PoliMi: knowing what classrooms and areas are open, where to study, how taxes work and many other things are difficult to find.
That's why we made some useful guides and downloadable campus maps and scaricabili, in order to help a little bit someone who might need it.
All those materials are made by us , from the students to the students.
Furthermore, there are some useful insights on frequently asked subjects like student taxes , spaces , agreements and discounts .
