DESCRIPTION
TRANSCRIPT
The mission of universities cannot be limited to the graduation of students
and the generation of new knowledge: they must also act as active partners
in society. In order to attain this purpose it is imperative that our potential
partners – businesses, municipalities, other agents – are fully aware of our
offer not only in terms of services and technology transfer, but also regarding
scientific dissemination, cooperation with the community and the promotion
of culture. A structured portfolio representative of what we have to offer and
who is, at the UA, the right interlocutor is, therefore, an important tool.

cooperationThe University of Aveiro has privileged
partnerships with companies and other national
and international public and private institutions,
cooperating with them in several projects and
programmes in addition to providing a wide
range of services. The University of Aveiro
is nowadays a reference with regards to its
cooperation with the community motivating
social, cultural and economic development.
The University of Aveiro has been participating
actively in the business community in the
areas of research and innovation, developing
products and solutions that support the
advancement of science and technology in
addition to boosting the economy. In this
respect, the institution has already created
structures aimed at promoting and supporting
entrepreneurship and the process of mediating
the transfer of technology and knowledge.
An example of this are UATEC – Unidade
de Transferência de Tecnologia (Technology
Transfer Unit) and IEUA – Incubadora
de Empresas da Universidade de Aveiro
(Business Incubator of the University of Aveiro).
One of the priorities of the institution is
to promote the professional integration
of its graduates also supported by the
development of teaching programmes in
business and entrepreneurial contexts.
One of the projects that has always guided
the University’s actions has been the
development of a strong relationship with
the region in which it operates by making
its know-how available to the community.
The University has recently strengthened
this relationship and established strong
innovative cooperation bonds with several
regional agents and, in particular, with the
11 municipalities forming the Intermunicipal
Community of the Region of Aveiro (CIRA).
creative science park – aveiro regionThe creation of the Creative Science Park –
Aveiro Region (CSP-AR) was one of the
most recent ventures to boost regional
development. The CSP-AR is run by the
Sociedade Anónima PCI – Parque de Ciência
e Inovação S.A., a company which is mostly
held by non-profit organisations including the
University of Aveiro, its largest shareholder.
This structure is oriented towards the creation
of knowledge and the promotion of its use
through the certification of the people and the
work done in partnership with several entities.
At an early stage, 5 key areas of the UA will
be taken into account: Energy, Information
Technologies, Communication and Electronics
(TICE), Agro-industrial, Materials and Sea.
This science and innovation park comprises
the establishment of technology-based
companies as well as the provision of a
distinct set of innovation services.
This is achieved via a formal and functional
articulation with the structures of the
University Campus, a feature that makes
CSP-AR unique at a national level.

international cooperation and cooperation within a networkWith regards to cooperation, the University’s
strategy includes its internationalisation and
the attainment of international recognition
based on the creation of knowledge in
collaboration with foreign entities, the
definition of an alliances guideline and the
targeting of geographical areas where
collaboration is a priority, namely concerning
Portuguese-speaking countries. Presently,
the University of Aveiro is an active member
of several international networks and forums.

has focused on the promotion of the public
understanding of science and the increase
of scientific literacy in all areas of knowledge.
The structures, programmes and projects
organised by the University, concerning
the promotion and public understanding
of science, play a key role in encouraging
curiosity and interest in scientific activities
thus motivating diversified audiences to study
and carry out research in these areas.

UA has sought to promote ongoing,
and lifelong training in innovative and
multidisciplinary fields that provide an answer
to the permanent challenges and needs
of the society, especially regarding the
recognition of “non-traditional” audiences.

in addition to measures pertaining to eco-
-efficiency, waste management, the promotion
and study of biodiversity on campus and the
encouragement of sustainable mobility and
accessible tourism, among other initiatives.
The possibility to host events as well as
socio-cultural and scientific initiatives is given
not only to the academic community but also
to other entities.
Some of the services and functionalities that
are made available by the UA are: booking
auditoriums, conference rooms, exhibition
halls and videoconference studios; the
provision of audiovisual support services
(audio and video recording and production)
and videoconference services and support
given to webcast or to printing services.
Units that support these services and
infrastructures:
· Communication, Image and Public
Relations Services
· Information Technologies and
Communication Services
the campusThe results arising from recent satisfaction
surveys show that much of the UA’s
attractiveness derives from its cultural
environment, the dynamics of the university
life, its infrastructures and the centrality of the
city and the surrounding region.
The university Campus, with 733,000m2
(approximately 90 football fields), is a
miniature city with its green spaces and over
66 buildings purpose-built for teaching and
research, but also distributed in a way that
allows the community to live in and enjoy a
multifunctional space. All of this is possible in
two adjacent campuses, surrounded by the
natural beauty of the Saltpans, overlooking
the estuary and near the city centre.
Displaying building projects signed by
the best national architects, the Santiago
Campus and the Crasto Campus are
landmarks in the region and a showcase
of contemporary Portuguese architecture.
The campuses of Águeda and Oliveira de
Azeméis, where UA’s schools are located, are
also being developed with a great sense of
aesthetics and functionality.
The University of Aveiro is fully aware of the
existing concerns regarding sustainability
and environmental protection and has
been coordinating and developing a set
of measures to boost sustainability on
campus. These measures are addressed
within a strategic project designated as
“Campus Exemplar”. This project includes

idadaudits, environmental impact and control instituteThe IDAD – Institute of Environment and
Development is a non-profit scientific
and technical association of public utility
founded in 1993. IDAD has an extensive
experience and provides integrated support
to environmental needs that companies
have in different areas. Some of the services
provided by IDAD are: strategic and planning
studies, environmental monitoring and
impact, auditing and environmental control,
and indoor environmental quality.
IDAD has broad expertise in the coordination
of multi-sectorial projects ranging from air
quality to water resources, flora and fauna,
landscape, social psychology or public health
working with teams of diverse specialists who
provide different types of intervention:
· Strategic environmental assessment
· Environmental impact assessment
· Development of environmental monitoring
programmes
· Atmospheric pollutants dispersion modelling
The use of the IDAD laboratory, accredited
by IPAC L0313, allows for the inclusion,
whenever possible, of the field work and
analytical components.

servicesstrategic and planning studies
It represents the most comprehensive
approach to environment and development.
The acknowledged expertise of the IDAD
has led to its participation in some of the
most important decision-making processes
that have recently occurred in Portugal:
· Evaluation of possible locations for the new
Lisbon airport
· Strategic environmental assessment of the
high speed rail network
· Strategic environmental assessment of the
programme “Portugal Logístico”
· Strategic environmental assessment of
Municipal Master Plans
environmental monitoring and impact
Impact Assessment is the characterisation
of the environmental effects of a certain
unit, i.e. the evaluation of all aspects
pertaining to its impact on the environment.
Throughout the years, IDAD has participated
in the development and monitoring of the
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA)
process of several types of projects: Industrial
units, business and logistics parks, tourist
developments, waste treatment units, and
thermal power plants.
The preparation of these studies frequently
requires the use of numeric simulation tools:
Studies concerning the dispersion of atmos-
pheric pollutants both locally (ISC, AERMOD)
and regionally as well as acoustic maps.
In the follow-up phase it is necessary to
regularly measure and monitor the real
effects of the projects on the environment
through the implementation of environmental
monitoring programmes. The use of IDAD’s
laboratory allows for the inclusion, whenever
possible, of the field work and sampling
components.

uinfocThe Integrated Unit of Continuing Education, UINFOC, founded in 2010, is a centre that aims
to carry out the scientific, educational and administrative coordination, and to support lifelong
training and research activities for traditional and non-traditional audiences in UA.
The UINFOC is the interface unit of the University of Aveiro with its Departments and
Schools, and of these with municipalities, businesses and society in general in the field of
academic training. Its mission is to foster the relationships and cooperation between these
infrastructures, in collaboration with the various stakeholders. The goal is to develop, propose,
organise and manage the development of training courses for traditional and non-traditional
audiences, which may or may not lead to an academic degree. Therefore, it contributes to the
training of working adults via the promotion of Ongoing, Permanent and Lifelong Learning.
The UINFOC also promotes the development of support services and structures directed
towards the monitoring of these audiences, taking into account their specific characteristics.
It begins with their arrival at the University, continues along their path as students and acts as
a connector in their lives after university. With this process, UINFOC allows for the possibility of
more than one admission into University.
UINFOC also acts as a support/information and meeting/socialising centre for these audiences
in the district of Aveiro. It favours continuous and flexible training initiatives and enables
collaboration between the University and the Community in which it operates.
