Nothing else Materials: from Nano to Macro worlds

General description

Have you ever had to clean your window panes? Boring, right?

Wouldn't it be cool if the damned glasses would just clean themselves? "Yeah, man, that would be AWESOME!"

And since Milano is the land of cool, we got it! Almost! ;) We just need your help to make it perfect! Interested?

BEST Milano is proud to offer you its course on advanced materials: in one week you will learn about organic semicondutors, nanofibers, titan oxided sufaces (yeah, the self-cleaning glasses! :P), titan oxide artistic interference (it is Italy after all, even advance chemistry is art!) and polymer-matrix composite materials. Quite a bunch of stuff, right? ;)

"Yeah, this is a lot, with long difficult names, i don't want to spend a week with boring, difficult lessons!" Well, you won't! Because most of the time you'll just be in the cooler-than-cool Politecnico labs, doing things! ...experiments, I mean! ...well, lab things! ;)

And if you had other things in mind, something else you'd like to do while in Milano, don't worry! We got it covered! A superfancy city rally in the fashion quad, a tasty aperitivo in the Navigli, a week of great parties, a weekend in a wonderful mysterious location... and all the loooooove, the beauty and the enthusiasm of BEST Milano to make this the greatest week of your life!
