Calls for application

Call for applications to the Ph.D. programmes - a.y. 2026/2027

The selection for the admission to PhD programmes is divided in two separate sessions:

Session I: from March 18th, 2026 to April 17th, 2026  at 12 noon (italian time) 
Session II: from July 1st, 2026 to July 22nd, 2026 at 12 noon (italian time)

Session II will exclusively concern programs that have the possibility to include in the call for applications scholarships funded by companies/external institutions and by departmental funds made available after the publication of Session I; therefore, not all programs included in Session I will necessarily be included in the second session.

PLEASE NOTE that the registration for the admission tests will stop automatically at noon on the deadlines; therefore, candidates are recommended to start the process well in advance to have it completed by the deadline.

The University will not accept any responsibility for any malfunctions due to overloading of networks or application systems.
Applicants will be able to modify, add or delete documents before the final completion of the application, after which it will be impossible to modify, resubmit or even cancel the application.

Notice of Temporary Interruption of PagoPA Digital Services

Please be informed that, due to technical operations related to the merger between Banca Popolare di Sondrio and BPER Banca, the PagoPA service will be suspended from April 14, 2026, to April 20, 2026. Consequently, PagoPA payment slips will neither be issued nor payable. Services will resume during the day on April 20, 2026, under BPER Banca.

Please note that the payment of the €10.00 fee is mandatory and, as stated in the Call for applications, must be completed within the established deadlines, under penalty of exclusion. Given the temporary unavailability of the system, the deadline for payment of this fee for Session I (Art. 4) has been extended to April 22, 2026, while the deadline for submitting the application for admission remains unchanged and is set for April 17, 2026, at 12:00 (Italian time).
