L’X and Bocconi University strengthen collaboration with two new dual degree programs in Finance and Artificial Intelligence

École Polytechnique and Bocconi University, two leading European institutions, are reinforcing their partnership with the launch of two new dual degree programs at the Master’s level: one in Finance and the other in Artificial Intelligence. This agreement, signed in December 2025 in Milan by Laura Fioni, Director of Degree Programs at École Polytechnique, and Francesco Saita, Dean of International Affairs at Bocconi, marks a new key milestone in academic cooperation between the two Institutions.

An Ambitious Collaboration in Strategic Fields

These programs are part of a framework agreement signed in 2024, aimed at strengthening exchanges and joint projects between École Polytechnique and Bocconi University. The dual degree in Finance will combine École Polytechnique’s Master of Science & Technology (MSc&T) in Economics, Data Analytics and Corporate Finance with Bocconi’s Master in Finance, with the first intake scheduled for September 2026. The Artificial Intelligence program will link École Polytechnique’s MSc&T in Trustworthy and Responsible AI with Bocconi’s Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence – Milan Track, set to launch in the 2027-2028 academic year.

Excellence in Education to Address Tomorrow’s Challenges

Bocconi University, globally renowned for its excellence in economics, management, finance, and data science, and École Polytechnique, recognized for its high-quality engineering and innovation education, are joining forces to offer programs tailored to the needs of the future. These dual degrees will enable students to benefit from a multidisciplinary education, combining technical expertise and an international perspective, to tackle the complex challenges in Finance and AI.
