Mad Center, as part of the Department of Art and Design, is involved in the research project that the department develops and organizes. Projects like cultural exchange with other cultural institutions, workshops, presentations, biennials, etc. 

In an interchangeable role that occurs every two years, the biennials let the floor to each other. Those are Tirana Design Week (TDW) and Tirana Architecture Weeks (TAW), both of which are international academic, professional, and cultural events organized biannually by POLIS University, aimed at promoting international knowledge linked to art and architecture practices, city sciences, and research activities, starting from the Albanian context and reaching out to the international scene, positioning Tirana and, more generally, Albania, on the European and world map. Or the FILL Project that lately had its third appearance in London, UK, in collaboration with Flower Gallery.
