Director: Prof. Raffaello Potestio
As from the 30th cycle, the PhD in Physics is activated in cooperation with the National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN) (as per par. 2 of art. 2 of DM 45/2013).
Doctoral programme
The Doctorate offers its students top level educational activities in collaboration with the Department of Physics.
The main aims are to:
- provide students with the skills needed to carry out highly qualified research activities at universities, public or private bodies;
- develop the ability to autonomously work in the scientific field with creative originality and meticulous methodology;
- shape physics able to exert their knowledge and abilities in different fields, thanks to a solid foundation and thanks to the fact that physical sciences are interdisciplinary;
- train researchers used to working in groups, used to international collaborations, to communicating research results and to formulating scientific projects.
