#### Católica Medical School

[edit]

The Integrated Master in Medicine at Universidade Católica received accreditation by the Agency for Assessment and Accreditation of Higher Education (A3ES) in October 2020.[26]

It focuses on three strategic lines:[27]

* The use of student-centred teaching methodologies ("Problem based-Learning") to guarantee the transmission of knowledge and the most advanced medical and scientific techniques, placing students at the centre of their learning and empowering them with autonomy to make decisions about their academic and professional path.
* Training in clinical skills from the first year of the degree and the organisation of semi-professional clinical internships, with the participation of students as fully integrated members of medical teams.
* The inclusion of research, both laboratory and clinical, in the curriculum of the medical degree, therefore stimulating education in the scientific method and facilitating the training of clinician-scientists.

The School will be located on the Sintra campus of the UCP, next to Tagus Park, and the building is being fully refurbished, including the creation of new spaces such as the interactive library, the anatomy lab, the skills lab and the scientific lab.

In 1978, the Catholic University of Portugal extended to Porto, with the creation of the Propaedeutic Year of the Law Course, but it was only in 1983 that the Regional Nucleus of Porto was created, which since 1994 has been called Regional Centre.[28]

The Foz Campus is located next to Foz Velha, a beautiful town with great beaches, where students often go, to clear their heads after a stressful day of classes. And includes seven teaching units.[29] It consists of the Arts Building, the Central Building, the Américo Amorim Building, the Paraíso Building and the Restoration Building.

[30]

#### Católica Porto Business School

[edit]

Católica Porto Business School was founded in 1987, starting to teach Management as an extension of the Faculty of Human Sciences (FCH) based in Lisbon. In 1996, the School also became responsible for teaching Economics in Porto, as an extension of the Faculty of Economics and Business Sciences (currently the Católica Lisbon School of Business & Economics), in Lisbon.

In 2001, the Faculty of Economics and Management of the UCP was created in Porto. A year later, the Católica Porto Business School (at the time called EGE - Atlantic Business School), in partnership with important business associations and other universities, began to encompass all the activity of Executive Education.

Today, the Católica Porto Business School has a wide range of programmes consisting of a degree programme in Economics and Management and a double degree in Law and Management, as well as Master's programmes in Auditing and Taxation, Business Economics, Finance, Management, Human Resources Management and Marketing. Within the scope of Executive Training, Católica Porto Business School has MBAs, executive courses, sectorial and customized Post-Graduations and also Abroad Training.[31]

In addition to the formative offer, Católica Porto Business School develops a structured research activity through multiple Centres and Laboratories: CEGE - Research Centre in Management and Economics; two applied research laboratories, LEAD.lab, a leading knowledge centre,[32] and SLab - Service Management Lab - a competence centre of Católica Porto Business School of the Catholic University of Portugal, which aims to produce and transfer knowledge that can contribute to increase the productivity, quality and innovation of industries and service-related tasks.[33]

Católica Porto Business School also has consulting services available through CEGEA - Centro de Estudos de Gestão e Economia Aplicada (Centre for Management and Applied Economics Studies).[34]

Currently, ESB offers three degree courses in Bioengineering, Microbiology and Nutrition Sciences; four master's courses in Food Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Applied Microbiology, Biotechnology and Innovation, European Master in Food Science, Technology and Business; doctoral programmes in Biotechnology, in Science, Food Technology and Nutrition. The School also has several Post-Graduate programmes.[35]

In parallel with its academic activity, ESB has created and developed a research centre, Centre for Biotechnology and Fine Chemistry (CBQF) which, since 2004, has the status of a laboratory associated with the State and develops activities in the area of Biotechnology, specifically in the Food and Environmental areas and its relationship with quality of life and well-being. One of the capabilities of CBQF is to provide scientific services to the community and different industries.[36]

#### Faculty of Education and Psychology

[edit]

Founded in April 2007, by decision of the Grand Chancellor D. José da Cruz Policarpo, the existence of the Faculty of Education and Psychology dates back to 1997, when the Institute of Education (IEDU) was created.[37]

Currently it offers a degree in Psychology[38] and master's degrees in Educational Sciences,[39] in Psychology,[40] and in Psychology and Human Resources Development.[41] In terms of doctorates, it offers a doctoral programme in Educational Sciences,[42] whose first edition took place in 2007-2008 and extended, in a national context, to editions in Viseu and Lisbon and, in an international context, to Mozambique. Since 2019, it also offers a PhD Program in Applied Psychology - Adaptation and Change in Contemporary Societies, a joint degree with two European Higher Education Institutions (IES) - Universitat Ramon Lluli and Nottingham Trent University. This programme contributes to the development of relevant research in the field of Psychology and enables future PhD graduates to receive high quality training in an international context. This 3rd Cycle training offer in Psychology is the first in Portugal, both inter-university and international.[43] The Faculty also promotes a number of postgraduate courses.[44]

The research activity is part of the Research Centre for Human Development (CEDH). Formally created in 2013, although it has been the research aggregator of the Faculty since 2008, it takes a broad and multidimensional look at human development, covering all the stages of the life cycle, considering and analysing the various transitions that guide the paths of life. It has human and material resources and infrastructures, such as the Human Neurobehavioral Laboratory (HNL).[45][46]

The action of the FEP also includes the provision of services to the community through: the University Clinic of Psychology,[47] which constitutes a support structure for the activity in the area of Psychology; the Support Service for the Improvement of Education (SAME)[48] which aims to promote the improvement of the quality of the processes and educational results of Portuguese schools; the Community Service which allows the students of the degree in Psychology to develop voluntary work.[49]

#### Faculty of Law - School of Porto

[edit]

The Católica Porto Law School was distinguished for having created the first law degree in the history of Porto and the North of the country, in 1978. Later, it was again a pioneer in becoming the first Law School to implement the Bologna Declaration, in 2003, and the first to launch a Double Degree (in Law and Management), in 2015.[50]

It currently offers a law degree (daytime and post-time course)[51] and a double degree in law and management, in partnership with the Católica Porto Business School.[52] In terms of 2nd cycle, it offers two masters: in Law[53] (General or with the possibility of choosing one of the specializations) and in Law and Management.[54] In terms of 3rd cycle, it offers a PhD in Law.[55] The Faculty has the International Law Program, available to undergraduate students, and promotes the attendance of academic mobility programmes at universities around the world. In addition to the degree courses, more than a dozen postgraduate courses are also offered, some in association with other entities.[56]

The new research demands have led to the creation of the Católica Research Centre for the Future of Law (CEID), a generalist legal research unit that aims to promote a profound change in the legal research paradigm in Portugal. CEID obtained the classification of "Very Good" in the last two evaluations carried out by FCT, which places it among the best ranked law research centres in Portugal. [57]
