Paola Periti, Italian student at the Polytechnic of Milan, is close to achieve a degree in Building Engineering / Architecture.
Selected for the T.I.M.E. project, she spent two years in France, where she obtained a degree in Ingénierie du Bâtiment, option Structures, at the ESTP in Paris (2013)
Several internships have developed her passion for the building world.
Always attracted by the challenges, she participated in several international competitions.
Stylique Construction, Paris, Project Manager + Architect
In this very formative period I had the opportunity to cover different roles in enterprise:
- During the first two months I studied and understood the strengths of the company since its foundation and I developed a business plan for the expansion possibilities for the company;
- Later I have the possibility to bring to the society all my experience in architectural design and I developed the conception of various office for a private assurance company in France (MNH);
- I was able to study the today system of sustainable development in a SME and to explain the main points to the team for a future certification of the society;
- The most challenging role was the preparation of documents in response to three contracts for the expansion of Orly airport.
What I more learn from this experience is the capacity not to be afraid in big challenges and to be always focused into my goals.
Stylique Construction, Paris, Site Manager
In this three months internship, I had the opportunity to improve my knowledge in the construction world.
I had to manage two sites in Ile de France:
- the initial structural works of a 500m2 nursery;
- the final works of a 440 m2 nursery.
Every day I had to follow the works in the site and to manage the material movements.
Politecnico di Milano, Lecco, IT, Masters, Building Engineering/Architecture
With the EU recognition, this course originated by an European proposal aims to create a new professional engineer role able to calculate steel and concrete structures as well as design and develop new projects. To do that it includes more hours than any other Italian Engineer course, required to cover both the abilities.
Ecole Speciale des Travaux Publics, ESTP, Paris, Masters, Building Engineering, option structures
The ESTP is one of the French “Grandes Ecoles”, which are the leading institutions for French engineering and management education. The “Grandes Ecoles” are distinguished by a highly selective admission process, a limited number of students and quality programmes.
At ESTP, I obtained an engineering degree in Building Engineering (Bâtiment)and during my last year of studies, I chose Structures as specialisation.
My final project was about "Le développement durable au sein de PMP", where I could investigate the theme of Sustainable Development today and to describe the innovations that have brought in the organization of the company I worked for.
