PhD programme in Civil Engineering and Architecture

The PhD programme in Civil Engineering and Architecture aims to provide students with:

(i) sound understanding of the main challenges related to civil engineering and architecture, developing capacity for synthesis of theoretical and applied solutions in various disciplinary fields (construction, environmental, geotechnical, structural, transportation engineering, architecture), through basic training and learning of updated research methodologies;

(ii) specialized teaching in various disciplines at both theoretical and applied levels to form the basis for actions of territory anthropization and building of the cities through unification of in-depth social, cultural and working-plan analysis that affect the construction projects in architecture and built heritage.

The training program is coordinated by the Faculties involved in the scientific disciplinary field (or fields) related to each research topic treated within the present PhD programme. Such a program is carried out by taking part in lectures and courses (also held by other Universities and graduate Schools or foreign Institutions with which agreements for exchanges and reciprocity have been signed), seminars, laboratory and research activities, study stays in other scientific and technical Institutions.
