Courses overview
Testo

Teaching will be initially structured on a restricted number of compulsory courses for all doctoral students of the same Cycle, aimed at consolidating a common background in the major fields of the program. These will be followed by a wide range of optional courses, offered in sufficient numbers to ensure that doctoral students in a particular field can both pursue their own advanced research path while interacting with other disciplines. The three Universities in the PhD consortium will additionally offer a wide range of cross-disciplinary and multidisciplinary activities, which will also focus on practical and ethical skills necessary for an effective conduct of academic research.
