Events
Three-year course
From March 2 to 6 AANT opened a dedicated space within the academic calendar: Refresh Week. Before resuming regular teaching activities, students from all Bachelor’s degree programmes were invited to take part in a week of workshops, talks and laboratories that move beyond the boundaries of individual study plans to embrace transversal, interdisciplinary and contemporary themes. An active pause, adistributed laboratory of ideas, tools and visions. The aim is to stimulate open thinking, experiment with diverse languages, and foster dialogue between body, technology, storytelling, design and social responsibility.
