The project is related to the work of the PLS – Progetto Nazionale
di Fisica, a network of 35 Italian universities led by the University of Catania. The overall aim of the project is to
design, develop and validate a range of new interactive simulations in modern physics (quantum mechanics, atomic
physics, …). The simulations will integrate and support more traditional teaching approaches at the university level,
but may also serve for training of perspective and in service high school teachers. The PhD studentship will be based
at the Physics Division of the University of Camerino, in Camerino (Italy).
