Objectives and educational background
Educational goals
The PhD Program in Humanities, Technology, and Society aims to impart state-of-the-art and innovative scientific skills related to ongoing societal transformations associated with technological evolution. These skills are essential both for conducting high-level research in academia and for governing the digital and green transition of the territory, public administration, businesses, cultural institutions, and third-sector organizations.
The program thus trains highly qualified individuals with two distinct profiles:
1. **Researcher Profile**: This profile emphasizes a solid humanistic education, enabling individuals to engage with theories and methodologies from the humanities and social sciences. The goal is to enhance knowledge and understanding of the relationships between technology, nature, and society, operating within national and international academic and research contexts.
2. **Digital Transition Specialist Profile**: This profile focuses on the relationship between new technologies and nature, equipping individuals with strong interdisciplinary skills and critical capabilities in project design, management, organization, and communication. These skills are applied in strategic work environments crucial for the territory and its economy, generating positive impacts across various organizational contexts (public administrations, businesses, third-sector entities, intermediary networks and associations, public and private cultural institutions, etc.) affected by digital and green transition processes.
