The course coordinator may allow the students to do part of their research abroad and serve as interns in public and private institutions.

A maximum of 9 places and 9 fellowships may also be made available for the most deserving applicants of the three PhD programs. Said places and fellowships will be assigned, according to merit, by a Board composed of a representative for each of the three programs and the Dean of the PhD School.

Graduate qualifications admitted:
- Italian degrees: two-year or four-year graduate degrees;

Prospective students who have not achieved a degree by the application deadline are also allowed to apply, in which case a conditional offer will be made, and they will have to submit the required certificate by 30th September 2011, or enrolment will not be allowed.

Fellowship

The minimum annual amount of the scholarship, in accordance with Ministerial Decree 18th June 2008, is € 13,638.47 (before social security contributions)
For authorised stays abroad this sum may be increased by 50% in proportion to the length of the stay, which, under no cicumstances, can exceed half the duration of the course.

The most deserving students may be awarded fellowships for the amount of € 15,000 if funds are made available by the University Board. Starting from the second year, the € 15,000 fellowship may be confirmed or decreased to the amount granted by the Ministerial Decree.
