Courses

There are several courses organised by the School that students may attend depending on their individual curriculum.
All courses will be held at the Department of Mathematics except where differently indicated.

A transdisciplinary programme in Quantum Science and Technologies is a secondary programme that gives to the PhD candidate didactic and research traning on a complementary discipline.
The specific aims are:

1.  Promotion of transdisciplinary research in the Doctoral Course
2.  Training of PhD candidates with transdisciplinary competences
3.  Increase of the external collaborations

PhD students can apply for the program within 2 months of enrolling in the PhD program by sending an e-mail to phd.maths [at] unitn.it and attaching as required by the "TRANS-DISCIPLINARY PROGRAM IN SCIENCE AND QUANTUM TECHNOLOGY (TPQST) ":

• A motivation letter (other than the one presented for applying to the Ph.D., if any), specifying the reasons why the candidate deems her / his research project of interest for the field of QST.
• A brief research proposal, formally approved by the student's tutor or advisor.
