Students associations
Erasmus Student Network (ESN)
ESN Politecnico is a non-profit, apolitical association of volunteer students founded in 1992. Its aim is to support not only the exchange programs, but the whole exchange experience of the incoming students. The volunteers are mainly students who have been on exchange, therefore they're aware of the needs of incoming students and enjoy spending time with them. In order to integrate international students among them and with italians, ESN organizes trips and activities during the year, such as city tours and cultural visits, trips, activities to practice Italian in a relax environment, parties and so on.
Since 1994 ESN Politecnico is a member of the International network, ESN International, which is pan-European student organization founded in Copenhagen in 1990. ESN Politecnico has been one of the seven founding members of the Italian network, ESN Italia, in 1994. The Network gives the chance to the incoming students to partecipate into activities organized by other ESN sections all over Europe; students therefore can visit friends who are on exchange somewhere else and enjoy leisure activities over there as well. Since ESN International is so spread out, it's a good chance to live a "second exchange period" once the students go back home.
