Student Politics
Our ideas
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!
200 hour collab based on income, not merit
The 200 hour collaboration agreement is designed to give students the opportunity to earn some money by working at the university, so why base it on a ranking of merit and not income?
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 organize several cultural events and trips for students, free or at affordable prices (also thanks to the contribution of the Politecnico di Milano). We do it because we believe that the university is much more than a space for teaching, and that it can be experienced as a place of sociality and inclusion.
Discover our next events at the link below, and follow us on Instagram so you won’t miss them!
Secular, non-partisan, indipendent

Studenti Indipendenti is a representative list of the Poli, free from lobbies and parties and completely independent.
For us, representing students is a means not an end: we fight to protect and expand student rights both through representation in the university councils and thrugh activism as a student union with respect to the issues we address (such as environmentalism, feminism, anti-racism, anti-mafia, anti-fascism, and LGTBQIA+ issues).
We are active in Polimi as both an association and a student union, but also on a city-wide level (Studenti Indipendenti Bicocca e Studenti Indipendenti Statale). Always on the side of students.
Useful information
Sometimes it can be difficult to find your way around Polimi, understand which spaces are open, where to go to study, how fees work and much more.
For this reason we have created useful guides and maps of the campuses that can be viewed or downloaded, so that we can help those who need it in some way.
All these materials are self-produced, from students for students.
Furthermore, there are useful insights fore some frequently asked topics like university fees, spaces, economic agreements and discounts.
