PhD Scholarship

3 fully funded PhD scholarships are available in Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry at the University of Genoa in collaboration with the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT).

The research themes are centered on nanomaterials, nanocrystals, photonics, light-matter interaction, advanced spectroscopy, and energy applications. Students may work on hybrid low-dimensional semiconductor nanomaterials, colloidal nanocrystals for energy-related applications, or synthesis and spectroscopy of nanocrystals.

This is a strong opportunity for candidates interested in materials chemistry, photonics, renewable energy, energy storage, and advanced characterization of functional materials.

Funding: 3 funded PhD places with an annual scholarship value of €19,500 per year, including allocations and social obligations according to the official announcement.

Eligibility / requirements: Applicants should provide academic qualifications and transcripts, a CV, a research proposal in English, and 1–3 recommendation letters.
