WeLCOme messaGe João DuqueDean and Professor of Finance. IseG

It is a huge honour and a great satisfaction

for me to address you as the president of

an institution which is amongst those at the

forefront of economic and business thinking

and decision-making in Portugal.

as we have reached the celebration of our

101st anniversary, in may 2012, there seems

no doubt that the success of a great number

of our ex-students is an indication of the

continuing quality of our educational model.

In the globalized and multicultural world of

today the only way forward is through learning

appropriate ways to exchange goods, services

and ideas, while at the same time giving an

intelligent hearing to “the other”, however

different they may be.

at Iseg we teach people to think and to take

decisions based on true individual choice

rather than any kind of pre-defined model.

We pride ourselves on having a teaching

and research staff whose achievements in

international research publishing are on a

par with the best Portuguese business and

management institutes.

We are equally proud of our faculty members

and researchers, who are leaders amongst

the top Portuguese business and economics

schools in terms of international scientific

publications. We are also proud to have a wide

range of course units lectured in english in

the three cycles of studies: undergraduate,

four master degrees entirely in english and

one doctoral programme. our goal is to

continue increasing our english offer, always

maintaining the high quality of teaching that

our students are used to receiving.

We are proud of our 101 years of existence,

especially of the success of our students. In

101 years we have helped to realize childhood

dreams and develop talent, always looking

to the future. the influence of our school

on Portuguese society is an aspect that

differentiates us from other schools and is a

motive for rejoicing!

With this responsibility and the certainty that

Iseg will continue to be a reference in the

economic and business sciences in terms of

teaching and research, we invite you to learn

more about us through this brochure.

LLP - LIFe LOnG LearnInG PrOGramme/erasmusIn the academic year 2007/2008, the socrates/

erasmus programme reached an end and it was

replaced by the new LLP - Lifelong Learning

Programme. LLP’s first stage is scheduled for

2007/2013.

the Lifelong Learning Programme comprises

four sectoral programmes on school education

(Comenius), higher education (erasmus),

vocational training (Leonardo da Vinci) and

adult education (grundtvig), and is completed

by a transversal programme focusing on policy

cooperation, languages, information and

communication technology and dissemination

and exploitation of results. at last, a jean

monnet programme is oriented towards

european integration and the provision of

support for certain key institutions and

associations active in the field.

Lifelong Learning Programme is an action

plan of the european Community in the field

of education and training. Its global goal is, in

collaboration with the participating countries,

to help students of all ages and social groups to

improve their knowledge.

under erasmus (one of the sectorial sub-

programmes of the LLP), students can study in

any other eligible Higher education Institution,

for a period of minimum three months and not

exceeding one year.

this period must follow a programme of

studies, academically recognised by each home

university.

the mobility of students also includes student

placements in enterprises, training centers,

research centers and other organizations.

the aim of the new programme is to

contribute through lifelong learning to the

development of the Community as an advanced

knowledge society, with sustainable economic

development, more and better jobs and greater

social cohesion. It aims to foster interaction,

cooperation and mobility between education

and training systems within the Community,

so that they become a world quality reference.

assessment

the academic year is divided into two

semesters. a student may attend courses

chosen from 2, 3 or 4 different academic

departments (economics, management,

mathematics and social sciences).

foreign students take the same type of

examination as Portuguese students, who are

continuously assessed in a number of different

ways. these may include formal examinations

at the end of each semester, participation

and class attendance, group projects and the

presentation of case studies or essays. you will

also be asked to work with other students to

illustrate your ability to work as part of a team

and be actively involved, encouraged to ask

questions and join in discussions and debate

with your teachers.

In some courses, foreign students will be

allowed to do their reports and written

examinations in english or another foreign

language but this must be agreed upon by

teachers on a case-by-case basis.

a final mark is given at the end of each exam

period.

grades are given on a scale with a maximum

score of 20 and the minimum passing grade is

10.

students who fail in the normal exam, 1st

period of exams, have a second opportunity in a

final exam, 2nd period of exams (please consult

the academic calendar).

examination dates and results are to be found

online at our website.

on successful completion of studies, students

are automatically issued with an official

certificate of studies. this document is

subsequently delivered to the student’s home

university one month later.

aPPLICatIOn FOr stuDent mObILIty/erasmus

the school of economics and management of

the technical university of Lisbon welcomes

applications from foreign students who are

already registered at a Higher education

Institution outside Portugal and who wish

to take some course units from our wide

range of undergraduate and postgraduate

programmes.

In order to make the necessary arrangements,

there must be a written agreement between

Iseg and the home Institution of the

applicant, which describes the terms and

conditions of the “mobility period” (sometimes

called the “exchange period”).

to live in Portugal all students must be

bearers of a travel document, such as a valid

passport or a national Id card. this is the

document usually presented by citizens of the

european union and eea (european economic

area), who have the right to move to another

member state to live, study and work.

nationals of non-eu or non-eea countries

must apply for a study Visa. this is a special

permit issued for foreign students coming

to Portugal (unless the country and Portugal

have an agreement which provides exemption

from visas). In this case, you can obtain the

study visa from the Portuguese diplomatic

representative of your country (i.e. the

Portuguese embassy or Consulate). this

document may be granted on various entry

basis.

family members may accompany you for the

period of staying, by requesting a temporary

visa at the embassy or consulate of the

country where they reside before coming to

Portugal.

all students wishing to attend lectures at Iseg

should fill in the following forms and send

them to the International office of their home

institution which is responsible for forwarding

it to the erasmus office at Iseg (school of

economics and management), within the

deadlines below.

stamped by the erasmus office.

upon arrival, you should contact the erasmus

office, bringing along the following documents:

the erasmus office of Iseg is the link between

yourself and your departmental coordinator,

who is responsible for the academic orientation

and supervision of your studies. never hesitate

to contact us whenever you have any doubts or

eCts – eurOPean CreDIt transFer systemthe eCts - european Credit transfer system is

a student-centred system based on the student

workload required to achieve the objectives of a

programme, which are specified with regard to

learning and competences outcomes.

one of the key objectives of the bologna

declaration of june 1999 is to facilitate the

recognition and transparency of periods of

study abroad. With this system, the study

programmes become easy to compare for

all students, both local and foreign, and, as

a consequence, it facilitates mobility and

academic recognition among universities. on

the other hand, universities are stimulated to

organise and revise their study programmes in

order to make them more attractive for foreign

students.

eCts credits are basically a numerical value,

ranging from 1 to 60, which are allocated to

course units in order to describe the overall

student workload required to complete

them. eCts credits are a relative rather than an

absolute measure of student workload. thus,

the credits reflect the quantity of work that

each course unit requires in relation to

many different national grading scales exist

in europe. thus, in order to facilitate the

mobility of students and the transference of

their grades between institutions, a common

eCts grading system has been developed.

the eCts grading scale is based on the

WHat aRe eCts CRedIts? WHat Is tHe eCts gRadIng sCaLe?

the total quantity of work necessary to

complete a full year of academic study at the

higher education institution - that is, work

involved in lectures, seminars, practical work,

tutorials, fieldwork, personal study (e.g. your

own studies carried out in the library or at home),

examinations or other assessment activities.

so, you can see that eCts credits are based on

the overall student workload and are not strictly

limited to the hours of contact (in classes, for

instance).

In eCts, 60 credits represent the workload of an

academic year of study and normally 30 credits

represent a semester and 20 credits a term.

In addition to this, in case of a study period

abroad the eCts credits ensure that the

programme will be reasonable in terms of

workload.

combined use of keywords with short

explanations and alphabetical definitions,

ranging from a to f. the eCts grading scale

ranks the students on a statistical basis.

the aim of the scale is to provide an

instrument of transparency within the

european higher education system, to build

bridges and foster partnerships among

institutions, as well as to broaden the

choices available to students. the system

makes it easier for institutions to recognize

the learning achievements of their students

through the use of commonly understood

measurements – credits and grades - and it

also provides a means to interpret national

systems of higher education.

eCts is based on three core elements:

information (on study programmes and

student achievement), mutual agreement

(between the partner institutions and the

student) and the use of eCts credits (which

reflect the overall student workload).

Page 13

as mentioned before, the grading system

is an essential issue in the academic

recognition process of international mobility

programmes. grading scales vary according

to host countries and institutions, accounting

for the difficulty and complexity levels of

the equivalence process. therefore, in order

to overcome this wide complex universe

of national grading systems throughout

europe, a grading scale has been developed

in the framework of eCts (european Credit

transfer system) to make the comparison

between different national scales easier and

the assessment process more transparent.

the eCts grading scale allows the qualitative

assessment of student’s performance in

the course units (subjects) attended at the

host institution. firstly, this grading system

divides students into two categories: “pass”

and “fail”; then, those obtaining passing

grades are divided into five subgroups and an

eCts grade is allocated to each subgroup.

the eCts grade provides additional

information regarding the student’s

achievements in a specific subject. It is

based on the rank of a student in a given

assessment, i.e., how he/she performed

relative to other students in the same class

(or in a significant group of students).

It is important to note that the eCts grade

does not intend to replace the local grade

(see topic below); the main objective is to

provide qualitative information about the

student’s academic performance. therefore,

it is based on a relative grade that can be

represented as follows:

the eCts credits have been fully introduced

in all graduate programmes offered by

Iseg. a credit indicates the average amount

of time necessary to fulfill the course

requirements: attendance of lectures,

seminars, workshops, practical exercises,

preparation of papers and exams. sixty

credits corresponds the average workload

of a full-time student during one academic

year. eCts is based on the principle that 60

credits measure the workload of a full-time

student during one academic year.

Credits in eCts can only be obtained after

successful completion of the work required

and appropriate assessment of the learning

outcomes achieved.

arriViNg By PlaNe:

Lisbon is just a few hours away from north

america (about 6 to 8 hours) and 2 to 3

hours from most european cities. Lisbon’s

international airport (aeroporto da Portela)

is only 7 km away from the city centre.

a complete public transport network is

available in the main towns.

In Lisboa there are three kinds of public

transport: buses and trams (Carris) and

underground (metro). the bus fares range

from 1,75€ to 3,00€ and the metro fare

is 1,25 €. If you wish, you may choose to

purchase a monthly ticket for buses, metro

and trams at the price of about 32€, which

allows you to travel as many times as you

wish.

a simple and cheap way of getting from the

airport to the city centre is by bus, take the

aerobus number 91 at the airport, service

begins at 07:45am and ends at 22:30pm.

buses pass every 20 minutes, and the ticket

price is 3,50€. get off at av. fontes Pereira

de melo bus stop. from there you take the

number 727 bus to go to Iseg and get off at

Conde barão / av. d. Carlos I bus stop.

alternatively, since the Lisbon airport is

very close to the City Centre, you can reach

Iseg by taxi (ask about the fare beforehand

and for a receipt at destination), they are

available 24-hours a day, the journey time

to the city centre lasts 15-30 minutes and

costs between 10-15 euR, ask to come to

Rua das francesinhas, near the Parliament

(assembleia da República).

taxis are mostly painted cream with a

roof-light to identify them. However, some

taxis keep the old colours, green and black.

In towns, taxis use taximeters, but outside

urban boundaries, the service is charged by

the kilometer, and includes the price for the

driver’s return to his starting point. from

10 p.m. to 6 a.m., the fare increases 20%. It is

usual to give a tip of 10% on top of the price

registered. Luggage is charged according to a

fixed rate. all taxis have an updated chart in

two languages.

the erasmus office is not responsible for

settling students in accommodation but tries

to do its best providing all the necessary

orientation and information for all incoming

students. for this purpose, it works together

with the aforementioned group of local

students.

accommodation in Halls of Residence is

extremely scarce and only 1% of foreign

students manage to get a place there. to

overcome this problem, renting a room in

an apartment, shared with other students

looking for an extra flat mate to share bills, is

the best solution and a less expensive option.

Remember that finding lodgings in Lisbon

can be difficult, especially if you are staying

for less than a year. While seeking for

permanent accommodation the best option

for first nights is to stay at a youth Hostel.

make sure you have a reservation.

Lisbon, capital city, is located on the right side

of the tagus river, in the center of Portugal,

which is found in south-western europe,

bordered by spain on the north and east and

by the atlantic ocean on the south and west.

It is the westernmost city in continental

europe and lies more or less in the centre of

the country, approximately 300 km from the

algarve in the south and 400 km from the

northern border with spain.

It has an area of 84 sq. km. and a population

arOunD LIsbOnof 556 797 inhabitants. the area known as

greater Lisbon has a population of 2,1 million

in an area of 2750 sq. km.

the capital city of Portugal is built on seven

hills overlooking the tagus River, the very soul

of the city.

the city grew from the hill of the castle.

Phoenicians, greeks and Carthaginians

founded colonies here. Romans consolidated

their port and fishing vocation; the polis

developed in the imperial itinerary.

With the barbarian occupations by the

“alamos”, the germanic tribes and the

Visigoths the towns declined. the flourishing

came with the moorish occupation from year

719 to year 1147. Conquered by king afonso

Henriques in the year 1147, the city prospered

with the permanence of the court and its

urban character was reinforced as capital

of the realm (year of 1256). Lisboa became

a european mercantile centre through the

discoveries carried out by the Portuguese in

the 16th century.

In 1755, it was devastated by an earthquake,

in which it is believed that about 30 000 lives

were lost and more than 9 000 buildings were

destroyed. the city was rebuilt for that day

and age under the direction of the marquês

de Pombal. the downtown part of Lisboa

still retains its 18th century character. over

the centuries, Lisboa went through wide

changes, although many traces of the city’s

rich and troubled past have been retained. In

1994, Lisboa received the title of european

Capital of Culture, and the city was promoted

throughout the entire year in a wide variety of

events.

the memories of the golden age – a period

when Lisbon became the capital city of

the realm and one of the most famous and

cosmopolitan centers of 16th century europe

- are etched in torre de belém, mosteiro dos

jerónimos and Padrão dos descobrimentos.

to the east, the city shows a new face, so

clearly expressed in the modern architecture

of the site that housed expo ‘98, the last world

exhibition of the 20th century, devoted to

the theme of the oceans, i.e., to Portugal’s

contribution to the discoveries and sea

voyages. this new area is known as Parque das

nações.

In 2004, Lisbon hosted the european

football Championship. In the beginning of

this Century, Lisboa is still a city of many

contrasts, a combination of modern and

ancient that fascinates those who visit her.

either in or near Lisbon you will find beaches,

countryside, mountains and many areas of

historical interest.

Portugal has been a Republic since the

overthrow of the monarchy in 1910.

and corporative republic, which was

institutionalised by antónio de oliveira

salazar in 1933, a democratic state was

established after the so-called Revolution of

the Carnations on april 25th, 1974.

according to the constitution enacted

in 1976, Portugal’s chief of state is the

President of the Republic, who is directly

elected for a five-year term.

downtown - the area frequently called baixa

(downtown) comprises the Rossio, the augusta

street and its transversal streets, the recently

renewed Chiado and the Liberdade (freedom)

avenue.

this is one of the oldest commercial areas in

Lisbon. you will easily find streets named after

the business or job that was done there once.

Prata (silver) street, ouro (gold) street and

ferreiros (blacksmiths) street are some of the

examples we can quote.

shopping Centres - shopping centres are

almost everywhere in the city. bigger or

smaller, they will do their best to suit your

needs. We decided to list the bigger surfaces:

Colombo, Vasco da gama, amoreiras and el

Corte Inglés.

these areas include several shops of different

branches of business, including restaurants and

leisure facilities like movie theatres and mini

playground sets.

almost all business establishments in Portugal

are open on weekdays from 9.30 am to 1.00

pm and between 3.00 pm and 7.30 pm, and on

saturdays from 9.30 am to 1.00 pm. there are

many shopping centres that are open from

10.00 am to 12.00 pm everyday, including

weekends.

In Lisbon, choose from the wonderful

international golf courses, the sandy beaches

with a huge assortment of water sports or the

many sports associations with well-equipped

gyms, swimming pools, etc.

In the surrounding areas, you can find 18 golf

courses just a few minutes away from the city

centre. set in great landscapes and made for

those who love golf and refuse to renounce

the quality of life factor, these golf courses

are equipped with all the facilities that the

most discerning players demand.

surfing, body boarding, sailing, windsurfing

and all sorts of water sports can be found in

beaches like guincho (that has some of the

best conditions for surf and windsurf), Cascais

and Costa de Caparica. this last one boasts

a 15 kilometer stretch of golden, sandy

shoreline.

also not to be missed are the surrounding

areas of setúbal and sesimbra. besides

having good conditions for water sports, both

these regions offer spectacular scenery and

are definitely worth a visit.

one of the best ways to explore the natural

beauty of Lisbon’s surrounding countryside is

on horseback. the magnificent landscape of

the Costa do estoril, particularly the sintra-

Cascais natural Park, is best appreciated on

horseback, providing a truly memorable day

out for visitor riders.

there’s a wide range of bars and pubs in Lisbon,

and visitors should not leave the city without

doing some bar-hopping in bairro alto, docas

and Parque das nações. Whether you’re looking

for a traditional, down-to-earth tavern, a sleek

bar, or a cosy chill-out atmosphere, there is

always place for you.

Lisbon’s Zoo (jardim Zoológico metro station)

is located to the northwest of the city centre.

the Zoo has a large variety of large and small

animals, housed in a peaceful, shaded spacious

setting. It has an excellent collection of exotic

birds and reptiles, a boating lake, restaurant and

cafeteria facilities, as well as picnicking areas.

there is a wide inexpensive network in all

towns and cities. In Lisbon, the city of the

seven hills, you can choose between bus,

subway, elevators, electric trams or railway,

within the city or to the suburbs. Like any

other big city, Lisbon offers an extensive

public transport network (underground,

coaches, buses, trams, elevators, trains,

boats and taxis). do not miss the chance to

go by tram or cable car – they are a great way

to visit the city in a leisurely fashion.

students can get around the city by bus or

tram, both of which serve the entire city,

for as little as 1,75 € per journey. bus/tram

tickets can be purchased, from the driver, or

at any ticket vendor. during the rush hours

the underground, or metro, as it is called, is

recommended as a faster mode of transport.

a single ticket costs only 1,25€. subway

Lisbon has several parks: jardim da estrela (near

Iseg), where you can enjoy the sun, the trees,

relax and visit the local café. Parque eduardo

VII (above marquês de Pombal), where you can

find the estufa fria (an exuberant greenhouse,

with exotics plants, trees and fountains). Parque

do Campo grande, where you can roller-skate,

swim or hire a rowing boat on the lake, simply to

relax, enjoy the sun or appreciate the refreshing

shade of the overhanging trees. Parque do

Lumiar, estrada do Lumiar. this park is relatively

isolated from the city noises and houses the

museu nacional do traje (national Costume

museum) and the museu nacional do teatro.

(theatre museum)

PaRks tickets must be purchased at the subway stops.

there are passes for bus/tram/subway trips

valid for 30 days, as well as combined tourist

cards that include museums and unlimited

travel on the city’s tramway, bus, elevator and

subway transportation (1, 2 or 3 days).

the public bus and tram company CaRRIs

covers almost all of the Lisbon. generally,

buses and trams run from 6 am to 11 pm.

the subway is operated by a public company

- metropolitano de Lisboa - and runs from

6 a.m to 1 a.m. the latter is definitely the

fastest way to travel around in Lisbon.

If you are in a real hurry, then take a taxi,

which is also reasonably priced in Portugal.

they are usually beige or less commonly

black and green, with a sign on the roof. If

this has a number (from 1 to 6) lit up this

means the taxi is occupied. the green light on

means the taxi is free. In the city taximeters

are used; outside the city, the service is per

kilometer, including the return trip to the

pick-up point. between 10 pm and 6 am there

is an extra tariff of 20%. It’s advisable to

ask for a receipt. baggage transported in the

boot has a fixed rate.

If you’re traveling outside Lisbon, then you have

the choice of the train or coach service, which

enables you to reach any point in the country in

a fairly efficient and inexpensive way.
