Two days between campus spaces and the city center, where new international students, guided by a treasure hunt, started to find their way, meet each other, and grow as a group

IED Torino’s Welcome Day brought together all new international freshmen for two days dedicated to discovering the Quintino and Marconi campuses, moving through the streets of Turin’s city centre. Coming from different countries and backgrounds, students had the chance to meet, get to know the school’s spaces, and break the ice straight away thanks to a treasure hunt across the two locations, designed by the International Student Desk to help them navigate and feel more at ease in their new environment.

Clue after clue, through small challenges and riddles, students started talking, sharing curiosities, and realising they had more in common than they expected. The relaxed atmosphere made it easier to build new friendships and get used to everyday life at IED.

Here’s to a great start for everyone!
