UFP campus
The campus of UFP is located in Porto. The urban campus is suitable for those students who, firstly, are used to independence, and secondly, cannot imagine their life without the hustle and bustle of a big metropolis. The university has a library where students can do their homework, write scientific papers or just read interesting books. Foreigners who come to UFP through exchange programs study and live with local students. Thus, the university promotes intercultural exchange and the establishment of interethnic relations.
Portugal allows university graduates to stay in the country for one more year. Graduates can spend this time looking for a job in order to change their visa to a work one. You can find other options for immigration in our article.
