Graduate program in Computer Science
The graduate program represents the most
advanced academic degree, which is awarded after three years of
education and training in advanced research.
Starting with the 1994-95 academic year,
the Department offers a three-year graduate program leading to a
"Dottore di Ricerca" degree, which is similar to the Doctor of
Philosopy (PhD) degree. The program is a consortium between the
University of
Bologna, and the University of Padova.
The program consists of two semesters of
course work followed by research leading to a dissertation
describing original results. Each semester consists of three
20-hour courses with a final exam or project. Consult the
Statuto del
Dottorato (in Italian) or the infopage for further details.
Some of the principal research areas
covered by the faculty in which dissertation work can be carried
out include:
- Distributed Systems and Algorithms
- Distributed Simulation
- Computer Networks and Applications
- Software Engineering
- Programming Languages and Systems
- Fault-Tolerant and Real Time Computing
- Parallel Algorithms
- Randomized Algorithms
- Formal Methods
- Semantics of Programming Languages
- Logic and Constraint Programming
- Machine Learning
- Bioinformatics
- Information Systems and Databases
- Concurrency theory
- Logic in Computer Science
- Multimedia systems
- Security
