See the answers to the frequently asked questions for the application.
Q: Is a pre-evaluation of my degree possible?
A: We do not offer a pre-evaluation; however, if you want to apply and you have a foreign degree, be sure to obtain:
- the Diploma Supplement, for candidates holding a degree awarded in an EU country;
- the "Dichiarazione di Valore in loco” (declaration of value), issued by the Italian Authorities in the Country in which the degree was awarded, for applicants holding a degree awarded in a NON EU country. The "Dichiarazione di Valore in loco” should also indicate expressly if the degree does allow, in the country where it was awarded, the admission to a Ph.D. level course.
Q: Do I need an English or Italian language proficiency diploma?
A: You do not need any language proficiency diploma: the only requirement is an adequate proficiency of English. The adequacy will be verified during the interview phase of the selection process.
Q: What is the required minimum GPA?
A: There is no minimum GPA required to apply; however, during the evaluation of the curriculum a higher GPA might be assigned more points, depending on the criteria established by the evaluation committee.
Q: How do I obtain a scholarship?
A: The number of positions with scholarship is detailed in the call for applications; for the amounts and other information, please visit the dedicated page.
