Scientific and Technological Research
The University of Pavia invests in young researchers, talent, expertise, creativity and passion for knowledge. Pavia participates in international research projects, promotes interdisciplinary research, takes part in an international work network with the other prominent colleges and collaborates with businesses: taking knowledge as a starting point, and achieving innovation through experimentation and the application of knowledge.
Objectives
To promote internationally recognised projects and activities, strengthen the relationship with Brussels in order to encourage access to European funding (Programma Quadro, The EU’s research and development program), and encourage a greater participation in international research and collaboration in general.
Encourage initiatives that develop the University’s potential and render its interdisciplinary vocation even more explicit, as well as supporting interaction between researchers (and professors) from different disciplines.
Complete large structure and equipment projects (Cyclotron for radioisotopes, European centre of earthquake engineering, centres of excellence and new initiatives in applied biology). Pavia is fast becoming a scientific stronghold where topics such as Stem Cells, Nanotechnologies, Matter Physics, Microelectronics and Applied Biology are studied in its research centres. The most significant are: The centre of Applied Biology (CEBA), The European Centre for Training and Research in Earthquake engineering (EUCENTRE) and The National Centre of Oncological Hadrontherapy (CNAO).
Strengthen relations with businesses and the surrounding region. Promoting the growth of organizations and human resources in order to encourage the growth of production and, consequently the growth of the region. As well as consolidating existing relations with the world of production (PMI and large industries such as ST Microelectronics), the University has adopted a policy that aims to re-launch large facilities – such as the Technological Centre - with a renewed impetus to interact with productive and local industry.
