From the very first year, the PhD program engages students in a structured path of high-level research methodology. All PhD candidates must attend compulsory advanced courses that cover higher statistics, research design, and both quantitative and qualitative methodologies, going beyond the master’s level. The program is complemented by practical seminars essential for publications and scientific presentations. These activities ensure that each student acquires the analytical and methodological toolbox necessary to conduct rigorous research and generate new knowledge.
