The school is part of the training program offered by the PhD Board of the Earth System and Global Changes doctoral course of the University of Perugia (4-9 ECTS).

PETRAS Vulcano School promotes a multidisciplinary approach, involving volcanologists, geophysicists, astrobiologists, electronic/mechanical engineers and computer scientists to provide a 360-degree vision of the different skills needed by the planetary sciences community.

PETRAS Vulcano School 2025 is part of the Vulcano International Summer School initiative which has been ongoing since 2015 and has been funded over the years by Helmholtz Alliance Robotic Exploration of Extreme Environments (ROBEX), EAI, Europlanet, ARCHES and iFOODis.
