About this

Welcome Week at Técnico is an event designed to welcome new students and help them integrate into the academic community. During this week, new students have the opportunity to get to know the campuses, the degree programmes, their peers, mentors, and the school’s structure through guided tours, presentation sessions, and social and cultural activities.

The Orientation Weekend has a cost of €40 and is subject to available places. This add-on to the event aims to provide moments that allow incoming mobility students to get to know not only their colleagues but also a bit of Portuguese culture.

Registration is required for both the Welcome Week and the Orientation Weekend through the link included in the email sent to each mobility student.
