Masterly ability in perception, conceptualisation, connection, integration and design, the capacity to communicate ideas, forms, technologies, production processes, attention to detail and to the relevant context: these are some of the aspects of Giorgetto Giugiaro's personality that the Second School of Architecture has highlighted and summarised in the rationale for awarding the honorary master's degree: 

"for competence in reconciling formal intuition with effective techniques and technologies and for perception in understanding and anticipating culture, economics, demand and the market." 

For Giorgetto Giugiaro this is another prestigious achievement after the honorary degrees received in 1984 from the Royal College of Art, London (design), in 1996 from the University of Ruse, Bulgaria (design), in 2002 and 2004 from the Second School of Architecture, Università di Napoli (both in architecture), in 2003 from the University of Córdoba, Argentina (architecture) and, again in 2003, from the College for Creative Studies, Detroit (architecture).
