The study courses for achieving the Academic Diploma of the School of Scenography aim to ensure adequate mastery of artistic methods and techniques and the acquisition of specific disciplinary and professional skills. The aim is to provide knowledge, design, and expressive methodologies in the use of representation tools and artistic practices, with particular reference to theatrical, television, and cinematographic scenography, as well as to the preparation techniques connected to advertising communication and window dressing.

The School’s courses develop skills in the practice of expressive, traditional, and contemporary technological tools, which concern the use and management of space and the principles of representation. They also set the goal of achieving technical knowledge on the use of materials for the realization of projects, interventions within the territory, and environmental works, as well as developing in-depth analysis and research on visual artistic languages.
