- Introduction and objectives
The objective of the doctoral degree in Humanistic Studies is to train students to become high-level researchers who are able to work in both basic and applied research in the field of human sciences.
The doctoral students will learn to carry out high-quality research by acquiring and developing broad and deep competencies in the various analytical and methodological techniques. They will also acquire the necessary skills to participate successfully in the various forums at which they have to present their research results. This training is geared towards the research lines of the groups linked primarily to the Faculty of Arts, in collaboration with groups and departments of other national and international universities.
The doctoral studies in Humanistic Studies include the preparation and presentation of the doctoral thesis, which is an original research work in the field of human sciences.
It is also aimed to select the best scientific, creative, innovative and entrepreneurial talent in order to train students with the critical skills and competencies necessary for their future as researchers.
