The PhD Course in Sciences of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering is organized into 2 curriculum:

• Materials, structures, complex systems and architecture
• Risk, vulnerability, environment, health and territory                   

During the first year each student has to complete his/her personal educational program consisting of 6 courses, for a total of 18 credits (3 credits for each course), divided as follows:
- 4 courses chosen among the courses offered by our phd course (and listed below);
- 2 courses chosen among the courses offered by our phd course and/or offered by other phd courses.
