Scientific Degrees Project
The Scientific Degrees Project was created as a response to the dramatic decrease of matriculations to scientific courses, recorded in all European countries. It has been realized all over Italy and it consists of initiatives oriented to arouse interest for science in students from secondary schools. It is addressed both to teachers and to students and aims to build a bridge between school and university. It consists of many different initiatives, like seminars, laboratories, etc. to be held at school, as well as at university.
The main goal of the project is to promote the study of scientific disciplines in Italy. In particular, the project intends i) increase the number of matriculations to scientific courses without lowering the teaching standard; ii) increase the number of graduates in scientific disciplines.
