Curricular Volunteering students share 23 experiences in social institutions
During the Volunteering semester, each student is mentored by a professor, but before starting their fieldwork they attend support sessions with professionals from CIÊNCIAS’ Psychological Support Office (GAPSI), aimed at preparing them for the more complex realities they may encounter.
The volunteering program is worth three credits (ECTS) towards the undergraduate degree, but those who take on this mission say the benefits go far beyond academic recognition. “It is rewarding to see that volunteering actions have an impact on other people’s lives,” says Sofia Rodrigues, a Computer Engineering student at CIÊNCIAS.

We all see umbrellas that are improperly abandoned, everywhere, as soon as autumn-winter begins!
Have you ever stopped to question whether there is a better solution to avoid wasting these resources?
The Faculty of Sciences of ULisboa has 2 (two) collection points available, where you can leave the damaged umbrellas that you find on your way.
Later the Eco-Social Nucleus and AEFCL will hand them over to R-Coat so that they can work their magic and reuse these resources to make new products such as raincoats and hats!
You can find these collection points in the C5 building, in front of the HortaFCUL stand and also at the entrance of the C6 building, next to the globe!
