ExploringthE futurE

MESSagEof thE prESiDEnt The internationalization of scientific education and research is one of our main strategic pillars. As a consequence of this policy we are now posing as educational partners in Brazil, Cape-Verde, Mozambique, Romania and China. Furthermore, we recently achieved the highest Erasmus ratio amongst Portuguese universities. This last indicator is without doubt related to the elevated number of curricular units taught in English.

For the following four years we have defined three main goals: to increase the number of curricular units taught in English, to enlarge the number of double tutoring programs in collaboration with foreign universities on a Master and PhD level and to develop more research projects with international networks of reference.

Therefore I invite you to explore what our institution has to offer with regards to education and investigation and I am confident that you will find an institution open to innovation and international cooperation.
