The Università di Roma "La Sapienza" offers n. 6 PhD fellowships for
attaining the degree of "Dottore di Ricerca" (Ph. D.) in the Doctoral
Schools listed in Appendix 1.
Each fellowship amounts to 16,590 € per year (net of government taxes).
The Ph.D. programme lasts for three years and may be extended to a
fourth year (without grant), subject to approval by the School
authorities. At the end of the first and of the second year of
attendance, students have to be evaluated as proficient according to
the rules of the Schools.
Applications are opened from candidates who:
* are not Italian citizens;
* are not residents of Italy;
* have obtained abroad an academic qualification by a
non-Italian institution equivalent to the Italian "laurea
specialistica" . The equivalence of each qualification to the relevant
Italian degree will be ascertained (for the sole purpose of this
competition) by the Academic Board of the Schools.
Selection and admissions
Applications will be evaluated on the basis of academic qualification
by means of the documents.
The evaluation will be made by a selection Board consisting of the
Committee for Ph.D. courses of the Università "La Sapienza" and the
representatives of the Ph.D. Schools Coordinators. Each selected
candidate will be assigned to a Doctorate School. Each Doctorate
School will decide in which Programme (within those belonging to the
School, see Appendix 1) to enrol the candidate on the basis of both
his/her preferences and interests.
Attainment of PhD
Students must attend the courses and the seminars offered by the
Programme, pass the connected examinations, and prepare a PhD
dissertation, that must have original results. The PhD title is
obtained at the end of the third year after the candidate dissertation
and its positive evaluation made by an independent Jury appointed by
the Rector. The discussion may be delayed with the approval of the
School authorities, but not for more than one year.
