Qualification and Evaluation criteria for the admission of candidates to the 33rd cycle | Candidates must submit the qualifications required by the specific profiles and the project proposal related to the topic chosen by August 23, 2017 (12 am) by e-mail to the Ph.D secretariat (monica.fiorini@uniroma1.it). The project is not a constraint for the activities that will be carried out during the PhD. Documents have to be sent as .pdf file and have to not exceed the size of 5 MB. Titles and project will be evaluated according to the following evaluation: 1. Titles(max 15 points)
For students who will discuss the Master Degree thesis after the evaluation of the titles, but before 30 October 2017, the previous evaluation is replaced by the following:
Publications (max 7 points)
Research experiences (max 3 points)
Candidates for the scholarship funded by Terna must have obtained a Master Degree (as specified in the candidate's profile) with a minimum mark of 110/110. In addition, the "Research Experiences" will be considered as Titles only in the field of transmission and distribution of electricity. Any scientific publications submitted by the candidates will be considered if the topics covered fall into the issues of electrical systems, energy technologies and transmission networks. The candidates for the scholarship funded by D.Marchiori must have completed the first and second degree with a minimum mak of 110/110. In addition, the "Research Experiences" will be considered as Titles only referred to programming in different environments and with different processors and in the field of electromagnetic compatibility. Any scientific publications submitted by the candidates will be considered if the topics are related to servo-controlled systems both in hardware and software. 2. Project For the purpose of selection for the PhD, the candidate must submit a project to assess his/her inclination to perform the research and ability to plan and organize the various phases of the project autonomously. The project description must not exceed the maximum length of 8000 characters (spaces included). The project presented for competition purposes is not binding for the candidates admitted to carry out the research activity during the PhD course. In particular, the following aspects will be evaluated:
The candidate must explicitly state which scholarschip wants to compete for and the proposed project must be consistent with the relevant topic. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Oral examination | 26/09/2017, 09:30 – Room n.39 Via delle Sette Sale, 12/B - Roma At the oral test, candidates who have achieved a score at least 40/60 will be admitted to the overall evaluation of the titles and the project.
