| Overview |
SAI's semester program in Milan takes place at Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti. This academy of fine arts and design was formed in 1980 by a group of artists, with the intention of challenging the rigid academic traditions of the time by introducing new visions and languages closer to contemporary artistic practice and the creative professions. NABA training programs are based on a cross-disciplinary method aimed at developing artistic-professional skills and profiles in the fields of art, design, fashion, media and graphic design. Program participants select courses based on academic needs and career interests. Students can choose from close to twenty classes, most of which carry three credits. All classes are taught in English, except the Italian language courses.
