UNIVERSITY INSTITUTE OF LISBON Exploring the future The internationalisation of scientific education and research is one of our main strategic pillars. As a consequence of this policy we are now positioned as educational partners in Brazil, Cape Verde, Mozambique and China. In addition to these partnerships we offer a significant number of joint programmes with American and European universities.

Furthermore, we recently achieved one of the highest Erasmus student ratios amongst Portuguese universities.

This last indicator is without doubt related to the high level of curricular units and programmes taught in English.

For the next four years we have defined three main goals: to increase the number of curricular units taught in English, to enlarge the number of Master and PhD programmes in collaboration with foreign universities and to develop more research projects with renowned international networks.

Exploring the Future

Therefore we invite you to explore what our institution has to offer with regard to teaching and research and I am also confident that you will find an institution open to innovation and international cooperation.
