“There are many times when I end up postponing going home to stay with colleagues who may eventually become lifelong friends and share the same areas of study. I have always felt a lot of openness and support from the professors, and I am even participating in research projects because of this way of being at our Faculty.”

Carolina Silva

Bachelor´s student in Biology

“My time studying at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon was very important in revealing what I really want to do with my life. Before, I didn't think much about programming, but some of the subjects in this course allowed me to discover that I really enjoy programming.”

Bruno Martins

Master's student in Biostatistics

"With my doctorate, I learned not to take work home and to better manage stress in the face of adversity. Furthermore, I feel more prepared for the job market because it allowed me to learn concepts and techniques that can be useful both for pursuing an academic career and working in companies."

Constança Pimenta

PhD student in Biochemistry
