Description
The current grounds of Salerno University, one of the few campus universities to date in Italy, immediately represented a major attraction for Southern Italian regions thanks to their strategic position and to the university’s functionality.
The university is located in a decentralised position, yet close to major motorway links which help favour access.
The various buildings (boasting a volume of 500,000 m³) form part of a rational architectural design featuring correct distribution of internal areas. Large green areas have been created around the buildings which allow students to breathe in a quiet, laid-back atmosphere, far removed from urban pollution.
