葡萄牙天主教大学,也称为UCP或“Católica”,是该国第一所非国家创办的现代大学。它最初于1967年在布拉加开设哲学系。三年后,这所大学扩展到了现在的总部所在地首都里斯本,并作为天主教会和葡萄牙政府之间协议的一部分获得了官方地位
从那时起,UCP已经发展到包括在波尔图和维塞乌的另外两个基地,该机构的15个学院分布在四个地点。近几十年来,随着私立大学开始在葡萄牙开办,UCP的自主权变得不那么不同寻常,但作为一所公立、非国家、非营利机构,它仍然相对独特
共有约11000名学生在UCP注册,拥有1000多名教职员工。学院包括经济学;教育科学;艺术与人文;以及生物科学和生物工程。目前提供13门本科课程、18个硕士学位和4个博士学位。新葡京大学(Universidade Nova de Lisboa)和UCP合作创建了全职和兼职MBA课程,其中包括在位于波士顿的麻省理工学院斯隆管理学院(Sloan School of Management)学习一个月
该大学是伊拉斯谟+项目的一部分,2016/17学年有900名学生参加了该项目,包括被送往外国大学的学生和在UCP接受的学生。事实上,UCP一半的学生是国际学生,40%的教师来自葡萄牙以外的国家。该大学向葡裔美国学生提供五项奖学金
The Catholic University of Portugal, also known as UCP or "Católica", was the first modern university in the country not to have been founded by the state. It was originally opened as a philosophy faculty in Braga in 1967. Three years later, the university both expanded to the capital Lisbon, where it is now headquartered, and received official status as part of an agreement between the Catholic Church and the Portuguese government.
Since then UCP has grown to include two further bases in Porto and Viseu, and the institution’s 15 faculties are spread out across the four locations. UCP’s autonomy has become less unusual in recent decades as private universities began to be launched in Portugal, but it remains relatively unique as a public, non-state, not-for-profit institution.
In total, around 11,000 students are enrolled at UCP, with over 1,000 teaching staff. The faculties include economics; education sciences; arts and humanities; as well as biosciences and bioengineering. It currently offers 13 undergraduate courses, 18 masters degrees and four PhDs. Universidade Nova de Lisboa and UCP have worked together to create full-time and part-time MBA programmes, which include a month at MIT’s Sloan School of Management in Boston.
The university is part of the Erasmus+ programme and 900 students took part in the programme during the 2016/17 academic year, including those sent to foreign universities and those received at UCP. Indeed, half of the student body at UCP is international and 40 per cent of the faculty comes from outside Portugal. The university offers five scholarships to students of Portuguese American descent.
