The details of the International Doctorate School of  NANOSCIENCE AND NANOTECNOLOGY is outlined below:

• Born by cooperation agreement between University of Genoa and Phillips University of Marburg
• The  administrative headquarters is the University of Genoa
• The length of the doctoral program is three years.
• The official language is English

The aim of the INTERNATIONAL DOCTORAL is the production of researchers, both at PhD-candidate and post-Ph.D. level, with skills to operate in the international arena, displaying outstanding competence in nanoscience and nanotechnology in four different sectors: Industries, Health Organisations, Public and Private Research Organizations, Universities.

Even though the  research  involves a single, common interdisciplinary scientific topic, Nanotechnology and Nanoscience,  the  aim  is to address the  requirements of the four professional areas mentioned above.

The researcher’s activity  must be original,  possibly having an impact on the world of Industry and Services, and  his/her individual contribution  must be clearly identifiable.  The doctoral and post-doctoral students  will carry out part of their research abroad, within public or private institutions  with whom agreements have been made. The educational activity of the School is specifically aimed at research and,  to this aim, specialized seminars, whose contents will be related to the scientific areas mentioned above, will be arranged.
