BSc projects/thesis
September 2021: Marco Ferrara, final undergraduate project (in italian), Polinomi ciclotomici e applicazioni.
Note: Students interested in writing a thesis under my supervision should contact me well in advance of their intended graduation date. In my experience a good master's thesis needs at least 6 months of solid work. For other potential supervisors in the area, please take a look at our research group's webpage.
Candidates for a PhD should apply through the University of Padova annual call (opens every Spring), and it is advisable to contact potential supervisors before sending the application, enquiring about their availability.
