The UniPoliSI, formerly known as Politecnico degli Studi Internazionali (Polytechnic University of International Studies) and also known as PoliSI, is an unaccredited[1] distance learning, proprietary, for-profit university located in Chiasso (Ticino), Switzerland.
The institution has no campus and issues degrees mostly based on "life experiences", though supplementary examinations may be required. The school issues Bachelor's, Master's, and even PhDs[2] in several fields (engineering, economics, law, computer science), but most students are Italians working in construction surveying (geometri) who want a faster degree in civil engineering without attending Italian institutions.[3][4][5][6][7] In Italy, the same kind of unaccredited university would be illegal.
