The aim of the MEDAlics Academy PhD-School is to support the training of Ph.D. students from different parts of the world who are writing thesis on issues related to innovation and economic development in the Mediterranean area.

The Academy brings together innovative frontier researchers with Ph.D. students from different countries in order to inspire and qualify their work as well as help them to join high-quality research networks in the field they are approaching.  

The MEDAlics Academy will be held once a year starting from 2013. It is open to Ph.D. students who have completed at least their first year of graduate studies and who are then working on their thesis.

In particular two eligibility conditions must be fulfilled by applicant students: first, they must either come from one of the Mediterranean countries (nationality criterion) or study there (place of study criterion) and, secondly, they must be working on at least one of the general issues the Academy will focus on.

Students who do not fulfill these requirements might be admitted only on exceptional circumstances, which will be evaluated on a case by case basis.
