About IPG

IPG conducts various scientific activities and is inviting students to join the research.
As in many other universities in the country, the academic calendar at IPG is divided into two semesters. But for convenience, tuition fees are calculated per year.

They are available to local and international students. For up-to-date information on scholarships and the cost of education for each program, check the official website of the educational institution.
It is necessary to pay attention to other costs: accommodation, transportation, study materials, food, and personal expenses.

IPG campus
The campus of IPG is located in Guarda. This is a fairly large city that opens up many opportunities for students: from cafes, restaurants and other entertainment to internships at large companies. But an urban campus can also be a disadvantage, because big city life distracts some students from their studies. During the period of study, students can use the university library, where they can do homework and write scientific papers. Foreigners who come to IPG through exchange programs study and live with local students. Thus, the university promotes intercultural exchange and the establishment of interethnic relations.
Students can stay in Portugal for a year after graduation to find a job and change their student visa to a work visa. We talk about other options for immigration in our article.
