PhD Course in Pedagogical, Educational and Instructional Sciences
PRESENTATION OF THE PHD COURSE
The School is underpinned by a wide area of scholarly research, experimentation and applied practices present in national and international specialized literature, concerning the following aspects: educational processes; educational systems and teaching methodologies, within the frame of reforms required for the European dimension development in education; training models and practices aimed at developing new knowledge and suitable behaviours for institutional, productive and social contexts. Knowledge is required about key theories justifying an informed and disciplined approach to research issues, to be deployed in order to develop research projects, experimental designs, inquiry methods, aimed at informing educational, teaching and training practices in all fields.
Educational studies are increasingly called upon, in order to promote knowledge, competences and actions aimed at human and social development, as well as the evolution of cultural and material production processes.
