PhD in Biological Sciences and Applied Biotechnology

Among the oldest and most prestigious in Italy, the University of Turin has the dimensions of a city within a city, producing culture, research, innovation, education, and employment.

The over 70,000 students, 4,000 faculty and technical-administrative staff, 3,000 doctoral and specialization students, 120 structures, and numerous locations represent the present of a tradition that spans over six centuries.

The 27 Departments and more than 70 libraries that are part of it make it one of the largest centers of knowledge in Italy, capable of covering almost all fields of knowledge. Noteworthy are the 3 Centers of Excellence in research and the unique specializations of some courses at the national level.

The University is an active player in the transformation of urban space: with its glorious tradition in both scientific and humanistic fields – alongside important specializations in socio-political, computer science, agri-food, entertainment, communication, and cultural heritage – it operates in ambitious projects such as the City of Health and Science; it acts within the regional museum circuit; it expresses itself through its own media such as radio, television, and cinema, and is actively engaged in the most important social issues.

The University of Turin, weaving international collaboration relationships, demonstrates continuous growth and promotes the meeting and integration of cultures: a reality always in motion, capable of pushing civil society towards "doing well."
