Strategic Plan

In line with the Strategic Plan of the Politecnico di Milano, the School defines its strategic priorities and objectives on a three-year basis. Consistency between the School of Management’s Strategic Plan and that of the Politecnico di Milano is reinforced by the School Project being approved by the Academic Senate, following positive evaluation by the Research Commission of the Academic Senate.
The POLIMI Graduate School of Management also develops its own Strategic Plan, which is derived from the POLIMI School of Management’s vision, mission and strategic priorities.
