Prior to coming, an agreement will be reached for additional services that can be arranged through GEV's provided management. Academic faculty can also be contracted to teach students in their respective fields.

Faculty-led Programs and collaboration with Italian Firms
American universities prefer academic programs that are lead by US faculty. GEV academic programs in Urbino are mostly led by US faculty.
Faculty is required by their department to meet specific criteria and follow academic progress and other duties as specified by department head.
For technical classes in architecture, costruction and engenering we have developed strategic collaborations with important private studios and firms of architecture and engeeniring, that can collaboarate and co-teach a specific part of the program. The faculty or the department can decide to add a specific part in their program adding a collaboration, for example, with the studio MTaA of Giancarlo De Carlo or with the Studio Pier Carlo Bontempi.
