The PhD Course in Electrical, Materials and Nanotechnology Engineering is established with the scope of creating a truly multidisciplinary third education level, targeted at the study of research topics in different industrial engineering sectors as electrical engineering, materials engineering, primary and secondary raw materials engineering and micro/nanotechnologies engineering. EMNE PhD course is aimed at forming young doctors that can find a highly qualified job more easily than second-level graduated engineers. The course is designed with the scope of responding to the needs and dynamics of industrial world and of the related market, which are looking more and more for high qualification, multidisciplinary expertise, capability of exploiting innovative technologies and methodologies for design and development of new products.
The fast growth of micro/nanotechnologies has introduced important innovations in different field of industrial engineering. Cross-fertilization of knowledge and research represents a fundamental step in the education of PhD students who can contribute to products and industrial systems innovation.
Therefore, EMNE PhD course proposes a novel synthetic approach to combine a wide range of research topics, focused on transversal topics like the development, characterization and use of materials and technologies, and on vertical ones like the electrical engineering sector. The course responds to the education needs of high-tech industries that are active in different sectors and in the electrical engineering sector. The education offered to the PhD students is that of a training to the applied research starting from the integration of basic technical and scientific knowledge till the new frontiers of the science in the specific field of the research, with the help of a supervisor entrusted to each student. The PhD course is organized in three curricula: Electrical Engineering, Materials and Raw Materials Engineering, Nanotechnology. |
