PhD Program in Atlantic Islands

The Doctoral Programme Atlantic Islands: History, Heritage and Legal-Institutional Framework is a multidisciplinary research training proposal offered by the universities of the Macaronesian Region, which aims to affirm the scientific validity of island studies and, particularly, those of the Mid-Atlantic archipelagos, taking into account their historical, cultural, heritage and legal specificities, understood as a shared island world. Although the offer of the other three universities in the Programme includes professors belonging to the "Legal-institutional framework" line at the University of La Laguna, the training offer only includes the first and second lines of the programme.
