Can I study in Portugal in English?
Some English-taught programmes are available, especially at postgraduate level, but offerings and language requirements vary. Check the institution's course details and module language.
Study in Portugal
Portugal attracts students seeking European university study, with programmes to assess in IT and software, data, renewable energy, engineering, business, tourism, marine and logistics fields, and life sciences. English-taught options exist, particularly at postgraduate level, but programme language and availability must be checked individually. Do not apply a postgraduate graduate-residence route to every degree level: AIMA's route described for completed second- or third-cycle higher education or research has specific conditions.
Common questions
Can international students work while studying?
Work depends on residence category and current Portuguese rules. Confirm conditions for your permit with AIMA and the relevant authority rather than assuming a fixed number of hours.
Is there a one-year stay option after study?
AIMA describes up to one year for qualifying graduates of second- or third-cycle higher education or research to seek work or create a compatible business. Eligibility is specific and should be checked directly with AIMA.
Which fields should I consider?
IT, software, data, renewable energy, engineering, business, tourism, marine and logistics, and life sciences are possible fields to assess against your qualifications and career direction.
