The two postgraduate training opportunities that bring together the science and the economics of climate change will be presented online on April 5, 2023.  Expression of interest is open for the PhD and the 2nd-level Master of Research in Science and Management of Climate Change, designed by Ca’ Foscari University of Venice and CMCC. 

Students who want to navigate the complex and multi-faceted dimensions of the grand challenges posed by climate change can express their interest in the forthcoming editions (academic year 2023-2024) of the PhD Programme and of the 2nd-level Master of Research in Science and Management of Climate Change, joint initiatives of Ca’ Foscari University of Venice and the CMCC Foundation.

The PhD Programme in Science and Management of Climate Change is a 4 year programme that brings together the science and the economics of climate change. It prepares experts with a broad and thorough scientific background in economics, climate science, valuation techniques and with specific modelling skills. During the first year students complete their coursework in Venice, while from the second year onward they develop their research projects and work on their final PhD dissertations. After completion of the first year, PhD students are required to spend a period conducting research at a foreign institution or university, to be agreed with the tutor and approved by the PhD Board.

The 2nd-level Master of Research in Science and Management of Climate Change is a 1-year programme aimed at creating experts capable of managing the complex and multi-faceted dimensions of the grand challenges posed by climate risk by integrating the scientific and socio-economic aspects in a unique programme. It provides competencies that are key for researchers and professionals in companies with a strong vision of sustainability.

Courses for the Master’s programme and the PhD programme in Science and Management of Climate Change are held together. PhD students completing their studies and receiving their PhDs will also receive the qualification of MPhil in Science and Management of Climate Change at the end of their 4-year programme.

On April 5, 2023, don’t miss the OPEN DAY 6th Edition Master of Research and PhD Programme in Science and Management of Climate Change! Register and join the event.
