In the week 11 – 16 October 2021 the second edition of the Mediterranean PhD School will be held. It is organized by the Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering of the University of Naples Federico II. This year the event, which will focus on the theme “EUROPEAN GREEN DEAL. CONTRIBUTIONS FROM CIVIL, ARCHITECTURAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING”, will be held online and will be completely free of charge.

Regarding Geotechnical Engineering, the lectures will be held by Professors Antonio Gens (UPC Barcelona) and Lyesse Laloui (EPFL Lausanne). The works will end with a round table discussion coordinated by Prof. Gianpiero Russo (University of Naples Federico II).

PhD students, in addition to attending lectures, will participate in application activities. By registering by September 17, they will be able to present scientific contributions relevant to the theme of the School, which is dedicated to the European Green Deal and the transition to zero climate impact engineering (e.g. Geothermal energy and its applications) and develop an exercise project. There are prizes of 600 euros each for the best 8 presentations and 3000 euros for the group that will have developed the best project.
