XXXVI Doctoral Period
Specific Rules
The specific educational plan for the students of the XXXVI Cycle is expected to stick to the general rules of the doctorate educational plan, as described in the associated page. The key point of this plan is that all students are expected to gain at least 44 ECTS of didactic activities, of which at least 22 during the first year and at least 12 in the second year.
In the case the need for social distancing will prevent organising courses in the traditional (in presence) modality, we will turn them into online courses.
In any case, should the enduring of the COVID-19 emergency prevent some of the students in regularly carrying on their learning and research activities, the board of the school will flexibly evaluate these situations.
Planned Courses
The courses planned so far for the students of the XXXVI Cycle are listed below. Students can then refer to the "Courses" page of the school Website for detailed information (exact dates and schedules, and teaching materials) about each of the courses. Email information and news on the Website will be in any case provided to all students.
Students are also encouraged to have a look at the educational plans of the other courses of the E4E Doctorate school, where they can find additional interesting proposal, valid for this doctorate course.
