PhD in Scienze Giuridiche

Graduates of the Dottorato di ricerca in Scienze giuridiche at the Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca go on to pursue careers in academia, such as careers as a university professor, or as professionals in law, such as an attorney, judge, or notary. Their expertise also qualifies them for managerial roles in local and national governments and in European Union and international organizations, as well as consulting roles in industry and commerce.

This three-year doctorate provides the research skills and methodologies needed to understand law at its various levels (national, supranational, and global) and forms (normative, jurisprudential, and doctrinal). Students specialize in one of five tracks: Impresa, fisco e lavoro; Giustizia penale, diritti fondamentali e politica criminale; Autonomia privata, persone, tutele: percorsi della storia e scenari contemporanei; Poteri, diritti, democrazia; International law, European Union law and Legal Philosophy. This program strongly values interdisciplinary teaching and collaboration among faculty and visiting scholars.
