The Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto extended its offer of 2nd cycle studies with nine additional masters, which result from the adaptation of integrated masters according to Decree-Law No. 65/2018, of 16th August.
Applications are made through an institutional competition and are subject to the conditions and deadlines set out in an annual notice.
The academic year starts in September and ends in July. The selected students are provided with an acceptance letter which they will need for the visa application. Although applications may be submitted in the 1st or 2nd phase, we advise non-European students to apply in the 1st phase to obtain the student visa on time for the start of the academic year.
The following may apply for a Master Degree:
- Applicants who comply with the prior training requirements set out for each Master shall be admitted to the competition (see information for each cycle of studies);
- Holders of a bachelor's degree (or legal equivalent) in the area of Engineering or similar area deemed appropriate by the Scientific Committee of the Cycle of Studies;
