The course offer of the ROSE PhD Programme includes different types of courses: 1. Specific PhD level courses; 2. Horizontal interdisciplinary courses, organised by the Doctoral School at IUSS; 3. Advanced Master courses, shared with the MSc CivRisk, ROSE path; and 4. High-level undergraduate courses from the undergraduate academic offer at IUSS.
As part of the final activities of the 2025/2026 academic year, four seminars on “Risk Analysis Against Wind and Waves” will be delivered by Prof. Steve Winterstein:
- Risk Analysis Against Wind and Waves: Mechanical Models (23/09/2026 14.00-16.00)
- Risk Analysis Against Wind and Waves: Statistical l Models (24/09/2026 14.00-16.00)
- Risk Analysis Against Wind and Waves: Reliability Methods (28/09/2026 14.00-16.00)
- Risk Analysis Against Wind and Waves: Special Topics (29/09/2026 14.00-16.00).
The courses planned for the 2026/2027 academic year are listed below. They will be taught by both local faculty members and renowned international professors.
