A presentation of the doctoral program and in particular of the curriculum in Neuroscience, technology and Society will take place during an Open Day on April 10th 2019 at the Botanic Garden conference room in Padova.
The Brain, Mind & Computer Science (BMCS) PhD program, developing during 3 years, offers 21 ad hoc courses per series, taught by the Faculty board and by Italian or foreign experts. The BM&CS program proposes two curricula:
Each student has a main supervisor (SUPERVISOR) and a co-supervisor from the other curriculum, who cooperates with the supervisor in guiding the student along an interdisciplinarity path. Students follow a personalized program, shared with the Faculty and the supervisors, and based on their discipline of origin, their research interests and their research project. During the first year, enrolled graduate students have classes organized into an interdisciplinary curriculum. Starting from the second year, students focus on the topic of their doctoral thesis and spend at least three months at an International research center, working on issues relevant to their doctoral project followed by supervisors and Faculty.
Professional figures coming out of this PhD program
This PhD program aims to train professionals and scientific figures that can position themselves between computer science, engineering, cognitive neuroscience and social science. Resulting professional figures are for example:
In addition, this PhD program allows to successfully work within the research lines identified by the Horizon 2020 program of the European Community, which advocates the same interdisciplinary approach adopted by this doctorate.
