COURSE PRESENTATION AND WORKPLACE

Course and research facilities presentation

The PhD program in Surgical Sciences and Innovative Technologies represents the third level of university education and aims to train professionals with integrated skills in basic, translational, and clinical biomedical research.

The title of PhD in Surgical Sciences and Innovative Technologies certifies a solid preparation and mastery of innovative techniques and methodologies related to the student’s chosen field and intrinsic to their three-year project. It also attests to their ability to independently and critically design and conduct basic, translational, and/or clinical biomedical research.

The educational program includes:

  • A close integration of experimental laboratory and/or surgical activities,
  • Research analysis and scientific production,
  • Seminar-based activities, and, where applicable, clinical practice.
