ICTP's Postgraduate Diploma Programme

An intense, 12-month pre-doctoral educational programme

ICTP's Postgraduate Diploma Programme is a gateway for young people who might otherwise not have a chance to reach international-level standards in physics and mathematics. Its goal is to train students from developing countries so they can compete favourably for graduate studies in any centre of learning in the world. Fields of study include high-energy physics, condensed matter physics, mathematics, and Earth system physics.
