Visiting PhD Students Training Program
The Visiting PhD Students Training Program (VSTP) aims to give the opportunity to PhD students coming from other institutions to attend SISSA Basic PhD Courses intended for first-year students, as well as Advanced Courses intended for higher year students, post-docs and staff members.
