Key Facts of the Mathematical Sciences PhD programme from Politecnico di Torino

Our scientific project stems from a twofold belief: first, a high-level mathematical education is fundamental to tackle theoretical and applied problems with the proper methodological rigour. Second, Mathematics plays a prominent role in avant-garde technological contexts, which are a source of challenging interdisciplinary problems of relevant interest to Mathematical Sciences.

Thanks to the interplay between theoretical, foundational and applied aspects of the research in Mathematics, the PhD Course in Mathematical Sciences provides a training specifically focussed on the creation of innovative research approaches. These are essential to adequately support innovation and technological transfer processes, which are more and more demanding in terms of original theoretical and methodological strategies to manage the increasing complexity of socio-economical paradigms.
