NOVA campus
The city campus of NOVA provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Lisbon has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. The university has a functioning library. In addition to educational materials in various scientific areas, it contains a collection of classical and contemporary literature. Thanks to international exchange programs at NOVA, students can communicate with representatives of different countries and nationalities and thus expand their own horizons. And, the university contributes to this by regularly holding joint events for local and foreign students.
After graduation, you can stay in Portugal for 1 year. This time is enough to find a job and change your student visa to a work one. NOVA graduates find jobs quickly, partly because the university has a good reputation among employers according to the QS World University Rankings.
