Campuses
The Polytechnic has two main campuses in Turin: the Valentino Castle on the River Po is still the main teaching campus for architecture, while the Corso Duca degli Abruzzi campus is dedicated mainly to engineering. A new mini-campus at Alenia Spazio holds the first teaching year of engineering while Automotive Engineering is attended at Fiat-Lingotto.
The Polytechnic is currently extending the size of the campus in Corso Duca degli Abruzzi by constructing a facility which will almost double the current size of the Corso Duca building.
As well as being the site of teaching and research activities (the First, Third and Fourth Schools of Engineering), the main campus in Corso Duca degli Abruzzi also houses the Politecnico's governing and administrative bodies, plus its secretarial headquarters.
Vercelli is the location of the Second School of Engineering, which provides course in civil engineering, mechanical engineering and electronic and computer engineering.
Politecnico also has campuses in Alessandria, Biella, Mondovì and Verrès.
