NEW – Anagrafe Dottorato di Ricerca
E’ disponibile una prima parte del database relativo all’Anagrafe del Dottorato di Ricerca predisposta dal GNIG. Una volta completo, il database conterrà le informazioni relative a tutte le tesi di Dottorato discusse nell’ambito di corsi di Dottorato di Ricerca attivati negli atenei italiani e di interesse per il nostro SSD. L’attuale versione del database disponibile sul sito GNIG (Sezione Ricerca/Tesi di Dottorato), contiene i dati relativi a circa 210 Tesi di Dottorato svolte nell’ambito di Corsi attivati in 17 sedi.
Le procedure di raccolta dei dati relativi alle singole tesi di dottorato sono ancora in corso ed a breve sarà disponibile un nuovo aggiornamento del database. Invitiamo tutti a segnalare eventuali refusi nei dati già presenti nel database inviando una mail all’indirizzo di posta elettronica gbiondi@unime.it. Per velocizzare il lavoro di raccolta dei dati, i singoli dottori di ricerca possono inviare allo stesso indirizzo le informazioni relative alla propria tesi di dottorato compilando l’apposito documento (Dati e Autorizzazione) ed eventualmente autorizzando il GNIG a rendere disponibile il relativo file pdf sul sito ufficiale del gruppo.
