  1. feup: engineering beyond

  2. feup: identity • more than 80 years of history: Faculdade de Engenharia is the largest school of Universidade do Porto, and has significant autonomy; since 2000, feup has moved to a brand new campus, just outside the city centre, in eastern Porto, PORTUGAL.

  3. feup: identity • we put our money where our knowledge is: a 90.000m² campus, with excellent infrastructures. The campus conveys a 8-floor library with 500 reading spots and work cabinets, 9 departments, 25 computer rooms equipped with 500 computers, among other facilities and class rooms

  4. feup: identity • our heart & soul: feup holds up to 7.000 students and 432 teachers distributed by 9 different departments: • Mechanical, Industrial, Civil, Electrical, Informatics, Materials and Metallurgy, Mining, Chemical Engineering and Physics.

  5. feup: education knowledge is our business: feup has adapted its courses to Bologna and currently offers a solid project of graduate and postgraduate education : 3 undergraduate courses (1st Cycle), 2 of which are in cooperation 9 integrated master in engineering (1st + 2nd Cyles) 8 MSc programmes (2nd Cycle) 18 PhD programmes (3rd Cycle)

  8. and we mean it: our excellence is proven by the excellent rate of employment (nearly half of graduate students are recruited before even finishing their studies). feup: performance Results from 2008 Employment Survey

  9. feup: facts & figures • Academic community • full time teaching and research staff: 432 (77% Doctorate) • administrative and technical staff: 231 (800 other contracts) • undergraduate students (1st and 1st+2nd Cycle): 5844 • master and doctorate students (2nd and 3rd Cycle): 532 + 503 • Scientific production • 284 scientific articles (17% UP Publications) • 61 active or pending patents and brands • 24 spin-offs

  10. feup: feel good experience feup: studying in feup gives the opportunity to develop academic skills, to take your know how to a higher ground, but it also allows you to have a complete, diverse and rich life on campus, through sports, cultural and leisure activities.

  11. feup: insight engineering 101: right from the start, our programs promote hands-on activities, multidisciplinary projects, where students can experience real engineering problems, develop an acute sense of responsibility and feel part of a team.

  13. feup: going global • feup has been a proud partner of several top, world class, education institutions to offer innovative postgraduate courses:

  14. feup: going global • Education: 150 active agreements in 52 countries • Research: 160 active partnerships in 43 countries FEUP is also member of CESAER - the Conference of European Schools for Advanced Engineering Education and Research - a non-profit-making international association of 60 leading European Engineering Universities, Colleges and Schools.

Requests are processed on a "first-come, first-served" basis, after their acceptance by the respective Faculty. • In the Application Form (page 4) the student can indicate if he wants to apply for a place at the University Halls of Residence.

  21. feup: exchange students • ACCOMMODATION – Private Rooms/Apartments • The International Office also seeks to provide students with information of accommodation at private houses, all over the city.
