Educational goals and objectives

PLANNING, DESIGN, ARCHITECTURAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY
The PhD Program, whose foundation is being proposed, under the name of PhD in PLANNING, DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURE TECHNOLOGY, originates from the unification of two Doctorates, currently active in the DATA Department at the 28th cycle, A.A. 2013/14, namely the PhD in Territorial and Urban Planning and the PhD in Environmental Design. This proposal of unification is the result of a long debate and of a relevant exchange between the two Teaching Bodies, which has proved necessary to implement the will of moving towards a single scientific and cultural project, collecting the identity of two high level courses dating back to almost three decades. The proposal identifies the key strengths of two widely tested methods and the fruitfulness of the comparison between them. Furthermore, it compounds and reprocesses them in the light of the acknowledgement of a new “urban issue”, which considers both the city and the territory as crisis factors, elements of fragility which, at the same time, represent the potentially privileged location for development, as long as the driving forces are recognized, the settlement patterns are radically re-designed and new dwelling ways are identified, which should be based on a renewed coexistence between man and the increasingly scarce planet’s resources.
This paradigm shift imposes on the world of research and education the need for a change of perspective, for a renewal of strategies and methods for the individuation of priorities. Furthermore, it calls for a creative and constructive approach to research, which should lead to the:
- Questioning of consolidated design and governance issues, strategies and methods;
- Rethinking of tools, technologies and knowledge concerning the whole life cycle of urban systems, built heritage artefacts and products, advantaging environment;
- Building of elaboration places that "keep together" the various disciplines involved in the transformation of urban space and in the governance of complex processes including production.
To this end, the new proposal takes on an integrated approach, combining different scientific competences, characterizing itself for a strong multidisciplinary attitude, which can be recognized as a sign of completeness.
The Doctorate pursues communal scientific and training goals, aiming at the integration of different disciplinary contributions; it identifies cross research areas and offers a training plan articulated in educational activities, cultural initiatives, the supervision of doctoral scholars and highly integrated assessment procedures, while recognizing, from time to time, the prevalence of a single disciplinary field which might be necessary for carrying out high quality research activities for public and private entities and in professional activities.

Admission Procedure

Written examination The written exam involves preparing a research proposal based on a critical observation that the candidate will have to develop on a topic related to this academic field, a topic that will be assigned to him or her at the time of the exam and that will be: - consistent with the PhD’s aims and themes; - linked to the scientific and academic characteristics of the curriculum chosen by the candidate from the three curricula that make up the PhD: 1. Territorial, urban and landscape planning; 2. Product design; 3. Technological environmental design (this choice should be stated in the candidate’s application letter). Score criteria for the written exam (60 points maximum): Knowledge and expertise on the subject of the written exam (maximum 20 points); Writing skills and clarity (20 points maximum); Acquisition of recent knowledge on the proposed research topic, thoroughness in exposition, objectives, methodologies and potential results expected from their development (20 points maximum). The candidate will need to score a minimum of 40/60 to pass the written exam. Exam language: ITALIAN.
language ITALIANO
Oral interview Only candidates who score a minimum of 40 out of 60 points in the written exam will be admitted to the oral exam. The oral exam (60 points maximum) consists of the following: - a discussion on the content and methods of the candidate’s dissertation and a defence of the written exam; - an interview discussing the curriculum, on the reasons stated for choosing that particular curriculum and on the interests the candidate has expressed; - a language test. The oral exam will be considered accomplished with a minimum score of 40 out of 60 points. Exam language: ITALIAN.

Qualifications assessment ASSESSING A CANDIDATE’S QUALIFICATIONS AND APPLICATION LETTER In order to assess a candidate’s qualifications (30 points maximum), the commission will examine: _ the candidate’s Curriculum Vitae (15 points maximum), where all aspects, activities and qualifications to do with the admission procedure’s subject matter, gained over time, are listed, and also indicated in the compilation of the online CV; their verified knowledge of the English language and any certificates attesting a knowledge of foreign languages other than English; _ the candidate’s application letter (15 points maximum), explaining their motives. The Curriculum Vitae must be drafted in keeping with standard European format (with an unlimited word count). The following documents will need to be included with the CV: a certificate attesting a minimum CEFR English proficiency level of B1 (issued by an English school authorised to do so); alternatively, a certificate attesting the candidate’s knowledge of the English language above B1 level, which will be considered a bonus point; candidates may also provide other certificates attesting a knowledge of foreign languages other than English (which nevertheless remains obligatory), which will be considered further bonus points. An Application Letter (of no more than 10,000 characters, including spaces) must be written that provides information, answers and opinions on the following five points: 1) A brief presentation of themselves, summarising their profile as regards the following four parameters: education; interests; activities; and their particular field of study. 2) The possible research topic that he or she wishes to debate, analyse and develop during their PhD and the curriculum they have chosen out of the three that make up the PhD course. 3) Any past or ongoing experience in the proposed subject matter and chosen curriculum. 4) Any significant products (including publications) concerning the proposed subject matter. 5) The results the candidate expects from their PhD and the personal development – both as a scientist and as an individual – he or she hopes to see at the end of the threeyear research course. Candidates will only be assessed on the basis of the documents they send in. Qualifications to be validated may be sent as self-certifications. FINAL IMPORTANT NOTES: The maximum of 30 points of "Assessing a candidate’s qualifications" will be added to the assessment of the first two exams: the written exam (with a maximum score of 60 points, as mentioned earlier, but with a minimum threshold of 40 points) and the oral exam (with a maximum score of 60 points, as mentioned earlier, but with a minimum threshold of 40 points), coming to a total score for the three assessments of 150 points maximum. Candidates should be aware of the fact that the points awarded for each section of the admission process will only be published should a candidate pass both the written and oral exams. Candidates will be excluded from the admission process should they fail to provide a certificate attesting at least a B1 level in their English language skills (issued by an authorised English school), or should they fail to declare at the time they apply that they’ll hand in such a certificate by 15 september 2022. Last but not least, it is clarified and emphasized that, for the admission test in the category "foreign students in Overnumber/Sovrannumero", exactly what is described and required is valid under the "THE ORAL EXAM" (including the request for English language certification, with the addition of the language knowledge requirement Italian at least of the A2 level), as well as under "ASSESSING A CANDIDATE’S QUALIFICATIONS AND APPLICATION LETTER".
