Doktorat w Obszarze Środowiska Górskiego i Rolnictwa

This PhD program aims to provide talented and motivated students with in-depth research skills that will allow them to tackle relevant agricultural and environmental problems in mountain areas. Students will have the chance to join a range of training opportunities, seminars, and conferences and to work under the guidance of supervisors within international research teams.

The three-year program is highly interdisciplinary; competencies span from ecology to hydrology, from crop production to animal science, from forestry to agricultural engineering, and from plant protection to marketing. The PhD projects tackle, among others, the efficient use of natural resources, the sustainable production methods in agriculture and forestry, and the effect of climate change on natural and managed mountain ecosystems.

The Scientific Committee includes internationally renowned scientists from Italian and foreign Universities as well as from Research Centres, like Eurac Research and Limburg Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry.

The international research training and the skills developed during the doctoral program will help you meet your career aspirations, both inside and outside research institutions.

The Free University of Bozen-Bolzano was founded in 1997. Our university has a strong international outlook, as testified by its multilingual courses (German, Italian, English, and Ladin) and the high number of students and teaching staff from abroad.

The taught modules on offer and our research projects are linked to international and inter-regional networks. For example, within the Euregio project, we are partnered with the universities of Innsbruck and Trento, and we are committed to reaching top quality standards.
