Yacht design education in Italy

[mao3535]

Hi,

I'd like to be a yacht designer since it has been my dream for years. Italy produces lots of nice yachts and its culture of luxury yachts is attracting me.

I wanna go to Italy for a MSC degree of yacht design based on may naval archit. background. What universities provide qualitied yacht design enducation on a postgraduate level?

Milano? Genoa? Have little knowlege about them. Anyone could share something about italian yacht design education with us?

I am from turkey , i studied maritime transport and engineering . so i applied here last year . in milano , the programme has 10 years backgraund. this programe is more design and i think in genoa it must be about engineering . you may ask what ever you wanna know .

Thank you. how about Genoa Uni. ? is it good on yacht education. I'm a Naval Architect. I have good background of ship mechanics. I wanna know every inch of a pleasure yacht. I like to do work of art, not work of technology. Is it difficult to get a yacht designer job in Italy?
