Collegio Carlo Alberto

Collegio Carlo Alberto is one of the "colleges" of the University of Turin, located in the town of Moncalieri, northern Italy, in the province of Turin. The Collegio can refer to the physical structure, a masterpiece of neoclassical architecture in the town of Moncalieri, Italy or to the schools and multiple research institutes currently housed within the building. Historically, prior to the 1990s, the Collegio Carlo Alberto referred to a famous Piedmont boys boarding school. The school has since closed, but the building retains its name.

The Collegio was formally established as a foundation in 2004. The foundation was initiated jointly by the Compagnia San Paolo and the University of Turin. As of 2007, the Collegio hosts a number of graduate research centers and Ph.D. candidates. The current President of the Collegio is Sir David King.
