10 figures on the University System in Piedmont

The figures on the university system in Piedmont highlight the presence of a significant student community, which has grown steadily over the last 15 years. This increase is mainly due to the universities’ ability to attract students from other regions and from abroad.

Once they have completed their studies, two-thirds of graduates work in Piedmont, just over 20% in other regions, and 7% abroad.

A growing student population is matched by an increasing demand for scholarships and student housing; for the latter, the supply remains inadequate. A recent response has come from the PNRR (National Recovery and Resilience Plan), but it still seems far from meeting the demand for student accommodation.
