Career opportunities for PhD graduates are primarily in the field of environmental research, both at Italian and foreign universities, as well as at research institutions in Italy and abroad that address various aspects of environmental research in terrestrial and marine fields. The significant interdisciplinary nature of the PhD program equips graduates with a comprehensive skill set, enabling them to tackle research topics that require expertise across diverse scientific sectors. The methodologies learned throughout the PhD can be applied to address complex and multifaceted issues, such as: the effects of climate change on different natural ecosystems (ranging from the deep ocean to high mountains) and managed systems (such as agricultural and forestry environments); the role of biodiversity in sustaining ecosystem efficiency and its subsequent production of goods and services; the emergence of new pollution sources, the appearance of novel pollutants, and their effects on organisms; the management of next-generation closed-loop production systems; and the digitization of environmental data for public dissemination to foster a progressive ecological awareness among the general public.
