OUR MISSION

Making Innovation a Common Good

The POLIMI School of Management develops and disseminates advanced skills in the fields of management, economics, and industrial engineering through research, training, and consulting activities. Combining the academic mission of Politecnico di Milano, which offers bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral programmes (BSc, MSc and PhD), with a professional mission, the School offers postgraduate courses, MBAs, specialised master’s degrees and executive programmes designed for those already in the workforce.

 

Thanks to its strong interdisciplinary identity and deep understanding of the implications of technology, the School aims to promote innovation and responsible management in order to generate a positive societal impact.
The School pursues its mission on an international scale through the creation and sharing of knowledge, high-quality education, the pursuit of scientific excellence, and active engagement in collaborations with businesses, institutions, public authorities, and non-profit organisations.

 

Established in 2003, the School coordinates and guides the Politecnico di Milano’s activities in basic and applied research, technology transfer, and postgraduate education in management, industrial engineering, and applied economics.

The School includes two centers focused on education and innovation:

The Department of Management, Economics and Industrial Engineering (DIG) at the Politecnico di Milano

The Department’s activities mainly focus on research, and it is an international reference point for knowledge at the intersection of management, industrial engineering and applied economics. Its aim is to contribute to the sustainable development of economic and industrial systems through innovation. The Department of Management, Economics and Industrial Engineering also plays a central role in teaching at the Politecnico di Milano, particularly in the key disciplines of the Management Engineering degree programme (Bachelor’s, Master’s and PhD), and supports numerous other educational programmes offered by the university.
