The Dies academicus of Università della Svizzera italiana will be streamed live on www.usi.ch/dies25 on Saturday, 8 May starting at 10 am, with the participation of Federal Councillor Ignazio Cassis, Head of the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs. 

The current health situation and the restrictive measures to protect the population do not allow the Dies academicus to occur at Palazzo dei Congressi, where USI was planning to celebrate the important milestone of 25 years since the birth of Università della Svizzera italiana together with the academic community and the public.

We invite you to follow the live streaming of the celebrations, with coverage from Lugano and several other locations in Southern Switzerland.

While the heart of the ceremony will be the Lugano West Campus Aula magna, the Dies academicus 2021 will also be held simultaneously in the different locations in Southern Switzerland in which USI activities are carried on. Celebrations will also be held in Bellinzona (in the Auditorium of the Scuola Cantonale di Commercio), in Mendrisio (in the Teatro dell’architettura), in Locarno (at the GranRex) and in Airolo (Caseificio del Gottardo).

We look forward to seeing you online. There will be plenty of surprises: celebrate with us!
