The Ph.D. Programme in Research Methods in Science and Technology, ReMeST<\/strong>, provides students with knowledge, competences, and skills needed to undertake research in science and technology with awareness, responsibility, and method. To this purpose, the degree program provides the opportunity to: deepen ethical and methodological issues, develop critical sense, apply both qualitative and quantitative research methodologies, experience the development, characterization, validation and usage of formal and computational models, improve scientific and technical writing skills, and confront the international scientific community.<\/p>\n

The program meets the requirements of innovative PhD programs for its international<\/strong> and interdisciplinary<\/strong> dimensions, covering three research areas, in which students will have the opportunity to take part in national and international research projects.<\/p>\n

The 3-Year program entails courses and supervised research: the first year is mainly devoted to courses, preliminary study, and project refinement; the second year is mainly devoted to research activities; the third year is mainly devoted to research refinement and PhD thesis preparation.\u00a0 PhD students are expected to spend a semester abroad and to present original contributions to the scientific community, both by attending international conferences and by publishing on indexed international journals.<\/p>\n

Each Academic Year goes from November 1 to October 31. Students’ activities and achievements are evaluated at the end of each AY for admission to the following year or to their thesis defense. Admission to thesis defense is also subject to the approval of external referees.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Courses are taught in English, and structured into modules of 8 ECTS each, corresponding to 16 hour of lectures + project work and study. Assessment is made right after each course by means of written tests and\/or reports and\/or oral examinations. Seminars are offered to PhD students to provide additional opportunities of either deepening their main fields of interest or widening their research horizons.<\/p>\n

Research projects are formally assigned to each student at the end of the first year.<\/p>\n
