The Doctoral Program in Cognitive and Cultural Systems mainly includes the ERC sectors of the Social Sciences and Humanities area, with significant and carefully selected grafts of disciplines and methodologies belonging to the Life Sciences area and the Sciences and Engineering area. The accurate balance of disciplines in the Doctoral Program Cognitive and Cultural Systems responds to the need to train researchers and professionals as to both equip them with the methodological tools necessary to address the complexity that characterizes the problems posed by contemporary societies and develop their ability to innovate in terms of questions asked, analyses carried out and solutions found. The Program focuses on systems in which the human component is predominant, but pays great attention to the increasingly fluid, dynamic and nuanced border areas between human and artificial systems. In methodological terms, graduate students are provided with the widest, most innovative and up-to-date range of methodologies, tools and techniques for analysis and management, even from disciplines far removed from traditional reference ones. This means that students are trained to innovate with regard to the research topics selected and the type of questions asked, the methodologies and techniques of analysis adopted and the solutions developed.
