Dottorati e Masters ·

phd storia La Scuola di Dottorato fornisce una preparazione culturale di eccellenza orientata alla conoscenza dei fenomeni costitutivi e caratterizzanti l’età contemporanea. Attraverso una formazione critica imperniata sulle discipline storiche contemporaneistiche, giuspubblicistiche e geografiche, la Scuola promuove l’apprendimento delle categorie analitiche ed interpretative utili ad una riflessione critica sulla “modernità” Otto-Novecentesca ed educa alla ricerca metodologicamente consapevole, con il sostegno di una comunità di studiosi vivaci e motivati e l’ausilio di strutture qualificate e di un ambiente particolarmente piacevole.

graduate school The aim of the PhD programme is to provide professional training in Political Science, with a special emphasis on Comparative Politics and European Politics. The programme offers advanced training to political scientists by providing them with the appropriate theoretical and methodological techniques for the analysis of contemporary political systems. Our objective is that scholars with this preparation will be able to operate across national, European and international systems, and to focus on polities, politics and policies. The PhD programme is open to graduate students from various disciplines. It welcomes students aiming for an academic career. It also encourages the participation of students who are interested in non-academic professional careers in Italy as well as abroad. To foster international participation, the program is taught entirely in English.

phd circap The aim of the programme is to offer a post-graduate training providing specific knowledge of the political processes at the European level, increasingly crucial in a situation where national arenas are more and more influenced by supra-national developments and the latter ones have to deal with national and sub-national demands. The courses offered cover both a “comparative politics” and a “European politics” perspective. The first approach focuses on similarities and differences among national political systems, while the second one on European institutions and decision-making processes. Other activities, such as meetings with national and international officers and policy makers are also provided. A number of internships and stages at European and Italian institutions, during and at the end of the teaching programme, will be available. A study visit to the European and international institutions in Brussels is regurlarly organized at the end of the courses.

Master Crie Le Università di Siena, Salamanca, Coimbra-Açores, Strasburgo III “Robert Schuman”, Jagiellonski di Cracovia, Panteion di Atene, Leibniz Universitat Hannover, Oradea, Montpellier I, Maribor organizzano ogni anno, sulla base di un accordo di cooperazione multilaterale e con il sostegno della Commissione europea, il Master in European Studies “Il processo di costruzione europea”.
Il progetto è frutto di una collaborazione scientifica e didattica che unisce nel campo degli European Studies i docenti promotori, molti dei quali coinvolti nei programmi dell’Action Jean Monnet promossa dalla Commissione europea.
Nell’anno accademico 2007/2008 è in corso l’ottava edizione del Master.

Euromaster Euromasters and Euromasters with Transatlantic Track
First launched in 1995, these unique postgraduate programmes are designed to train graduates pursuing international careers in business, administration, diplomacy, policy formulation and research. They offer a broad comparative understanding of European or EU-US politics, policy and social evolution as well as specialist knowledge of key issues in the Euro-Atlantic area. As European integration accelerates and EU-US relations intensify, knowledge and mastery of the deep structures underpinning these international communities is an increasingly vital attribute for those planning an international career. Students complete their coursework at a minimum of two and a maximum of three universities chosen from sites on both sides of the Atlantic. They receive their degree from the institution at which they submit the research dissertation. They also receive a diploma testifying to their international studies, signed by the Presidents of all participating universities.
Participating universities are: Bath (UK), Berlin (Free University and Humboldt), Carlos III de Madrid, Charles University, Prague, Sciences Po, Paris, Siena, and, in the USA, University of Washington (Seattle), University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
