The PhD program in Engineering for Energy and Environment aims to

provide a high level of training to a select number of young graduates
to make them competitive on a national and international level in
private companies with high technological contents, research centers
and universities. The main objective of the program (which is
structured in two curricula, Energy and engineering systems and
Biosystems and environment) is to provide an interdisciplinary view
of engineering problems in the energy and environment scientific
Program objectives areas, characterized by a high technological development. The
research activities will be devoted to the study of new engineering
solutions, novel processing techniques and innovative research
methodologies, with a focus on their technology transfer. Students
will be engaged in training activities and scientific research in the
program subjects, with particular reference to technologies for
thermonuclear fusion, energy conversion processes, energy storage,
environmental issues, innovations in the fields of mechanical
engineering, also in agriculture, and of sensors, biosystems and
agricultural issues, with regard to primary production and
environmental aspects. The work of the PhD students will be
coordinated by the members of the board already active in national
and international industrial collaborations and research projects, in
innovative and relevant topics, such as hydrogen technologies,
renewable energy, biomass, biosystems and thermonuclear fusion.
