➜ “Inside the engine! A journey through pistons, sounds and mechanical magic” (children aged 6 to 12) curated by Augusto Della Torre
Saturday 20 September at 10:00 am | B12, classroom L.0.6 – Bovisa Campus
An interactive experience designed for children to discover what’s inside an engine!

They will be able to touch real parts, watch live demonstrations and discover, through play, the secrets of one of humanity’s most fascinating inventions. A unique opportunity to spark curiosity… and perhaps even ignite a passion!

➜ “Future energies: true stories of those who are already building them” curated by Emanuela Colombo
Saturday, 20 September at 3:00 p.m. | B12, classroom L.1.3 – Bovisa Campus
What happens after a PhD in energy? You can start a start-up, lead an international team, continue doing research or manage energy for a large company. In this meeting, three former PhD students from Politecnico di Milano recount their journey: their choices, challenges and twists and turns. A live debate to discover how a passion for science can become a business, an adventure or a mission, and to imagine together the professions of the future. For those who dream of changing the world with energy – and want to know how to do it, really.
Emanuela Colombo will be in conversation with Susanna Ciminà (ARS TECH), Nicolò Golinucci (eNextGen) and Alfredo Nespoli (Atlante).
