The PhD Programme in Computer and Data Science at UNIMORE: A Window into Technological and
Social Innovation
The PhD programme in Computer and Data Science for Technological and Social Innovation (CDS-TSI) at the
University of Modena and Reggio Emilia is a higher education programme that stands out for its multidis-
ciplinary approach, integrating technical competences in computer and data science with applications in
the social and industrial fields. The programme offers a unique opportunity for academic and professional
development, promoting synergies between different disciplines, such as economics, communication and
computer science, and fostering creative solutions to complex problems. Students can benefit from inter-
national internships, workshops and collaborations with public and private bodies, such as the municipali-
ties of Modena, Reggio Emilia and Mantua, as well as with companies in the automotive and automation
sectors. The international dimension of the PhD is evident, with students coming from all over the world
and agreements with prestigious universities. The programme promotes experience abroad and partner-
ships with industry, enabling PhD students to develop practical and theoretical skills, with a focus on applied
research. Despite its recent establishment, the CDS-TSI has already achieved significant results, attracted
international talent and contributed to innovation in the field. With a strong foundation of collaborations and
a forward-looking vision, the CDS-TSI keeps growing and provides high-level professional opportunities in
the academic, industrial and public sectors.
