The value of sport for the Politecnico
The Politecnico believes in the value of sport as an integral part of campus life for students and staff, and promotes it as a means of fostering personal well-being, development, and maturity at both individual and social levels while supporting individual education and professional growth.
Furthermore, sport fosters social connection, strengthens the sense of belonging, stimulates competition, and boosts self-esteem.
To this end, it encourages members of its community to engage in sports activities and organizes local sports initiatives.
