The main goal of the PhD program in Computer Science is to prepare highly qualified researchers to conduct research, work and teach in fundamental and applied topics of the discipline, to design and develop complex systems, innovative applications with ICT in different application domains. To achieve this goal, the students will learn scientific contents and methods, design capabilities and practical skills.
The learning path includes a series of specialized courses that deal with advanced topics to illustrate the frontiers of the research and development in the different field of Computer Science, stimulate the discussion around open problems and actively involve the students in research projects.
About 10 students per year are admitted to the PhD program, with scholarships from the University, private companies or research projects either national or international. Great attention is reserved to external private or public institutions, with particular interests for foreign ones since each student is requested to spend at least one semester abroad to complete the program.
