lang="EN-GB">The PhD Programme in Science and Management of
Climate Change was established in 2007, through an agreement between
the
Universita' Foscari in Venice (Unive) and the Euro-Mediterranean Centre
for
Climate Change (CMCC), a consortium comprising several Italian public
and
private Research institutions. <br>
<br>
<b>Objectives of the PhD</b> <br>
Unive and CMCC joined their efforts to launch a joint PhD Programme in
order to
provide the job market with experts with a broad, in-depth, scientific
and
socio-economic background, as well as with a sound and innovative
research
experience focusing on the dynamics of climate change and the
methodologies and
techniques for evaluation and management, in terms of mitigation and
adaptation
measures and policies. <br>
<br>
<b>Organisation of the PhD Programme</b> <br>
The Programme is organised in two Streams: <br>
</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="" lang="EN-GB"><i>Dynamic Climatology</i>, at CMCC
in Bologna</span></li>
<li><span style="" lang="EN-GB"><i>Climate change impact and
management</i>, at the Department of Economics of
the University Ca Foscari in Venice </span></li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="" lang="EN-GB">Twelve 5-credit
courses are planned for the first academic year, in order to
provide students with the state of the art of the scientific findings
related
to the two disciplinary streams. These also foresee common activities
with the
objective of offering tools to build a sound scientific, managerial and
economic base for the general comprehension of the broader theme of
climate
change, with the opportunity for in depth studies of specific issues
and for
experiencing a multidisciplinary approach. <br>
The second year is aimed at providing the PhD candidates with an
experience of
research in a foreign institution, while the third year is mainly
devoted to
the preparation of the thesis. <br>
<br>
<b>Application information and forms<br>
</b>There are 6 places in total with 3 scholarships - funded by CMCC -
available for the successful candidates.<br>
