COURSES - 2007
Within the second year doctoral students of the XXII Cycle should have attended:
One course from the Second Level Degree in Astronomy or Physics, chosen among the three offered by the didactics commission of the Doctoral School of Astronomy, and complementary to the courses followed in the pre-doctoral curriculum.
Three modules chosen among the specific basic courses organized by the Doctoral School of Astronomy .
Three (if the Second Level Degree course gives 6 credits) or 4 (if it gives 5 credits) monographic courses chosen among those offered every year by the Doctoral School of Astronomy. (All monographic courses are in any case strongly recommended).
All the monographic courses (typically those held by visiting foreign professors) considered mandatory by the School Director, with certification of attendance.
The course mutuated from the second level degrees and the three basic modules imply a test of proficiency (a seminar to be given on the course topic, chosen by the supervisor, is suggested).
Doctoral students are expected to follow all Journal Club seminars (with certified attendance) organized by the Doctoral School once a week, from October till June.
Within the third year, doctoral students must produce certificates of attendance to 4 Doctoral Schools on astrophysical topics (national or international) of the duration of at least one week.
Expenses for the participation to the Schools are sustained by the didactics funds of the Doctoral School of Astronomy, authorized by the Board of Teachers.
