Why Portuguese Studies?
 

The degree in Portuguese Studies is a scientific area with enormous potential, considering Portuguese speakers. It aims to provide an up-to-date scientific training, open to the dynamics of the contemporary era, in the area of Languages, Linguistics, Portuguese Literature, memory and European cultural identity, with an openness towards the Lusophone and universal space, without forgetting the surrounding community.

The Institution's proximity to the community obliges it to be attentive to its needs, namely by preparing staff for society, through appropriate scientific, professional, ethical and deontological training, inspired by the church's social doctrine.

Throughout its history, the Faculty has privileged the formation of people who are qualified for a committed social intervention, faithful to the cultural values of the national community, and respect for the human person.
