Overview
More about this course
The main goal of the Doctoral Course in Veterinary Science and Food Safety at the University of Padua is to stimulate the PhD student to pursue an independent supervised research through a problem-solving approach. Candidates must develop the ability to undertake systematic studies and relate their studies to the general body of knowledge in the subject. This approach will train the PhD candidates to adapt to professional requirements different from those considered as specific for the research in the veterinary fields. Candidates are expected to meet regularly with their supervisors and they are assisted to participate in relevant national or international conferences.
