Lisbon School of Engineering
Lisbon School of Engineering - Instituto Superior de Engenharia de Lisboa (ISEL) - is a project that goes back to 1852. It began with the creation of the Industrial Institute of Lisbon, which became the Higher Institute of Engineering of Lisbon in December 1974, and, in October 1988, was integrated into the Polytechnic Institute of Lisbon (Instituto Politécnico de Lisboa - IPL). A journey that started with just nine subjects now offers 12 bachelor courses (the latest of which are to be launched in the 2021/22 school year), 11 masters courses (one of which is also to debut in 2021/22), involving intense research, development and innovation, and an unbreakable connection with society and with the business and industrial sectors.
Lisbon School of Engineering distinguishes itself by its commitment to ever-evolving quality education. Priority is given to the practical and experimental teaching component, which provides a more motivating learning experience and a training approach more in tune with the reality that lies beyond academia. Equally striking are the connections to the business world, apparent in numerous partnerships, both in the sphere of R&D projects and in the very development of our training offer. Ever true to its mission – studying, teaching, researching, and providing services in the Engineering field – Lisbon School of Engineering distinguishes itself as a center of creation, transmission and dissemination of science, technology, and culture, contributing to its quality and innovation. Aware of the world we live in, Lisbon School of Engineering finds itself fully committed to set a new structural element: sustainability.
where each color corresponds to a different course
Lisbon School of Engineering is the oldest engineering school in Portugal. But more than 160 years of existence does not mean that the school is stuck in the past. It is always looking ahead, with engineering courses that never go out of fashion, like Civil, Chemical, Electrotechnical, Electronic, or Mechanical engineering, alongside increasingly sought-after and successful areas such as Biomedicine, Biochemistry, Renewable Energy, and Multimedia, both at undergraduate and postgraduate level. The recently launched undergraduate courses in Mathematics Applied to Technology and Enterprise, and Municipal Management Technologies have further strengthened ISEL's connection to business, industry, and society. What they all have in common is a remarkable employability rate.
Lisbon School of Engineering is a place where the student environment and the relationship between students and teachers is unique, and where teaching is recognized as eminently practical. For that very reason, it is uniquely valued by the job market. The school provides classrooms, auditoriums, and labs (in constant modernization), a library, spaces for study and leisure, a canteen and cafeterias, multi-sport facilities, in addition to a games room, and a student residence.
Nova University Lisbon
Universidade NOVA de Lisboa was founded on the 11th of August 1973 and is the youngest of Lisbon’s three state Universities. Integrated within a framework of expansion and diversification of higher education, the University adopted a new model within the Portuguese system that stressed interdisciplinary approaches, technological developments while, at the same time, safeguarding offerings in traditional academic domains including medicine, sciences, and humanities.
NOVA is a decentralised University; its Faculties and Institutes enjoy a great deal of autonomy. Currently NOVA has around 22.000 enrolled students and 2355 professors, researchers and staff members distributed through five faculties, three institutes and one school, providing a variety of courses in several fields of knowledge. These are the following:
- Sciences and technology: FCT NOVA - NOVA School of Science and Technology
- Social Sciences and Humanities: NOVA FCSH - Faculty of Social and Human Sciences
- Economics and Management: Nova SBE - Nova School of Business and Economics
- Law: NOVA Direito - Faculty of LawMedical sciences: NMS|FCM - NOVA Medical School
- Statistics and information management: NOVA IMS - NOVA Information Management School
- Chemical and biological technology: ITQB NOVA - António Xavier Institute of Chemical and Biological Technology
- Hygiene and tropical medicine: IHMT - Institute of Tropical Hygiene and Medicine (Portuguese)
- Public health: ENSP-NOVA - National School of Public Health
As a public institution of higher education, NOVA has the mission to serve society through knowledge, locally and globally, by developing teaching and research of excellence that create significant social and economic value. The fulfilment of its triple mission - Teaching, Research and Value Creation - requires:
- An academic environment that embraces equality, inclusion and free thinking to attract the best students from a wide range of cultural backgrounds and into the most diverse fields of knowledge, enabling them to discover their potential and develop their individual talent, with a strong sense of active citizenship, democracy and justice.
- High-quality teaching with a strong international setting in all cycles of studies, student centered and delivered by leading academics who are able to provide students with the necessary skills and knowledge to successfully develop a career anywhere in the world.
- Collaborative research within the University and with highly specialized and interdisciplinary strategic partner institutions of international relevance, aimed at creating innovative results with recognized academic impact and value potential.
- A knowledge-based and high-impact value creation activity, developed in collaboration with society and the economy, which promotes sustainable development at the economic, technological, cultural, social and health levels, not only across the nation, but also globally, with particular attention to the European and Portuguese speaking regions.
Research at NOVA has been growing and developing, both at quantitative and qualitative levels. NOVA University Lisbon hosts 40 Research and Development Units (R&D;), 24 of which are research partnerships between NOVA and other national institutions.
Innovation and entrepreneurship are part of NOVA’s culture, being widely promoted within the University’s ecosystem as a way of fostering knowledge transfer and transforming research results into social and economic value.
NOVA focuses particularly on promoting a knowledge-based and high-impact value creation activity, through collaborations with industry and society.
Nova School of Science and Technology - FCT NOVA
The NOVA School of Science and Technology (FCT NOVA) is one of the three largest and most prestigious schools of Engineering and Sciences in Portugal. It is located 15 minutes away from Lisbon, is renowned for its excellence in research, for the quality of its courses and for the large employability of its graduates (graduates, masters, doctors).
FCT NOVA, with about 8000 students, it has one of the best university campuses and is distinguished by a culture of excellent teacher-student relationship and an intense academic life with many different cultural and sport activities.
