Ph.D Programmes

The PhD is the highest degree of academic education in Italy. It is a 3-year course of study and research that aims to provide PhD students with advanced training in the specific discipline of the PhD programme and high-level interdisciplinary scientific training aimed at perfecting specific skills dedicated to research management, knowledge of European and international systems, and the valorisation of research and intellectual property.
