Italy: Open PhD Fellowships at Bocconi University

Overview

Università Commerciale “Luigi Bocconi” PhD School inaugurates the XXVI cycle of the PhD programs for the 2010/2011 academic year. This is the admission procedure for the PhD in:

• BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT
• ECONOMICS AND FINANCE
• STATISTICS

Courses and seminars of said PhD programs are held in English. In addition, a maximum of 9 places and 9 fellowships are available, which may be totally or in part assigned to the Doctorate programs which have the best candidates. Said places and fellowships will be assigned according to a merit ranking by a Board made up of a representative for each of the three doctorate programs and the Dean of the PhD School.

Value of this fellowship

The minimum annual amount of the fellowship is € 13,638.47 gross (before social security contributions), as determined by Ministerial Decree 18 June 2008. For authorized stays abroad the ministerial fellowship sum (€ 13.638,47) can be increased 50% calculated in proportion to the length of the stay, which in any case cannot exceed half of the duration of the course.


Eligibility Requirements

Applications for the Doctorate program can be made by either Italian or foreign citizens who have:

- an Italian graduate degree (2-year graduate degree following a 3-year undergraduate degree or 4-year degree) or
- an academic qualification carried out abroad which has been declared “equivalent” or regarded as suitable by the PhD Faculty Board for admission to the program.
Candidates may apply for the Doctorate program even if they have not been awarded one of the degrees/qualifications referred to above, by the admission deadline. In this case, a conditional offer will be made and the candidate will have to hand in the required degree certificate, or foreign academic qualification, by 30th September 2010.

Application and How to apply

The application is scheduled in two phases:

- Filling out the online application;
- Posting the (signed) application (which has been filled out online) and the attached documents.

In the first phase Italian and foreign candidates must fill out the application online for one of the PhD programs included in the present announcement of competition by 15 February 2010 (www.unibocconi.eu/admissionphd).

In the application the candidate must declare that he has at least a B2 level of English.

The application becomes final only after the candidate has filled it out and has confirmed it following the instructions on the website.
The candidate can fill out more than one application online for different PhD programs.
Once the online application has been filled out and confirmed, the candidate must print out:

- the PhD application form ;
- the application receipt, containing a summary of the documents to be sent for the PhD application;
- the form for the photo and the address label to use for sending the PhD application and the documents to assess.

In the second phase the candidate must sign the printed application and send it to Università Commerciale “Luigi Bocconi, Ufficio Dottorati ed Esami di Stato, Piazza Sraffa 11 - 20136 Milano, by 15 February 2010 (as determined by the postmark), enclosing in one package:

- documents which the applicant feels useful for evaluation and listed in art. 5 of the announcement of competition;
- signed photocopy of ID card
- 1 passport-size photograph glued on the “Modulo Foto”.

More than one application for different Ph.D programs can be filled out on-line, as long as the candidate sends the signed applications and documents which he/she feels useful for evaluation. This must be done for each application, if not, the candidate will be excluded from the competition.

Each package must contain only one application with its documents.

The mere filling out of the application online is not valid for the competition application: the candidate MUST send the paper copy by 15th February 2010, including the signed, printed application once it has been filled out online along with the requested documents, if not, the candidate will be excluded from the competition. Applications sent after 15th February 2010 will not be accepted.
