Training Activity


In agreement with the tutor, the PhD student is required to present a study plan consisting of advanced courses/activities for 24 credits (ECTS) and 3 complementary training activities. The study plan must be approved by the board.
The study plan must be presented, at least in part, within the end of January of the 1st year. It must be completed (and possibly modified) within the end of January of the 2nd year.

Advanced courses
Students can choose among the following activities:
a) courses offered within the PhD program in Mathematics of the University of Turin or other universities, including foreign universities;
b) advanced courses offered within the Master degree in Mathematics of the University of Turin;
c) courses in the form of reading courses, where the PhD student studies independently a subject under the guidance of a teacher, followed by a final exam;
d) study activities in the form of a working group of advanced level, i.e. a group of professors, researchers, and PhD students who study together a specific research topic;
e) research schools and similar activities.

Each course/study activity corresponds to a number of credits, defined, in the case of courses of type a), b), c), or d), by the course holder in agreement with the Coordinator; in case e) by the Coordinator, in agreement with the tutor.
Type e) activities can contribute to the acquisition of no more than 6 credits.

For each course/activity it is required to pass a final exam, defined by the person in charge of the activity (with the possible exception of type e) activities that do not have a final exam). These exams must be completed within the first two years of the PhD program.
Besides their study plan, graduate students can follow courses or participate in research activities in all the years of their studies.
PhD students are also expected to actively participate in the seminars of our department; some of them give lectures within these seminars.

Complementary training
PhD students are required to participate in at least three courses/seminars offered for the Complementary Training by the Doctoral School of the University of Turin, within the first two years of the PhD program.
One of these activities can be replaced by an outreach activity (terza missione).
