Each amphitheater has been specifically designed to provide excellent acoustics. The projection booth, located in the Socrates Amphitheater on the third floor, is made of sound-proof glass and projection of any analog or digital video signals for all three spaces is managed by a professional technician.
When you join AIT, you join a full campus environment. Spacious classrooms, interactive amphitheaters outfitted with audiovisual network systems enabling tele-education, a modern library and fully equipped state-of-the-art laboratories which support your educational and research activity.

AIT is equipped with wireless access facilities, allowing you to access the internet from any part of the building. High-speed communication lines are provided for communication with the wider academic community. The eLearning  environment has been developed so that courses taught by Carnegie Mellon professors or other collaborating universities, such as Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, are given either on site or remotely via live video teleconferencing.
The communication lines are active 24-hours a day enabling all AIT students to have immediate and fast access to Carnegie Mellon's digital library, and supporting net-meetings.
