feup: engineering beyond.

feup: identity

more than 80 years of history: Faculdade de Engenharia is the largest school of Universidade do Porto, and has significant autonomy; since 2000, feup has moved to a brand new campus, just outside the city centre, in eastern Porto, PORTUGAL.

feup: identity

we put our money where our knowledge is: a 90.000 m² campus, with excellent infrastructures. The campus also conveys a 6-floor library with 500 reading spots and work cabinets;

feup: identity

our heart & soul: feup holds up to 7.000 students and 418 teachers distributed by 9 different departments: Mechanical, Industrial, Civil, Electrical, Computer, Materials and Metallurgy, Mining, Chemical Engineering and Physics.

feup: growth

it’s all been worth it: with a total investment of 8 million € in the last 3 years feup has kept a steady pace towards excellence and innovation, namely: 18 spin-offs, 41 active or pending patents and brands, 24 R&D units, involving 80% of the faculty;

feup: performanceknowledge is our business: feup has adapted its courses to Bologna and currently offers a solid collection of graduate and postgraduate education activities– 10 undergraduate courses, 9 of which granting a masters degree; feup’s learning portfolio also includes 9 postgraduate master degree courses (2nd cycle) and a wide range of PhD conferring courses, that sum up to 18 different options on the 3rd cycle.

feup: performance

thriving for a better world: feup firmly believes that knowledge enhances its power through its investment on research and development – our research clusters indicate a rich spectrum of focus areas: energy&environment, transports&communications, electronics&computing and health&life sciences, among others.

feup: performancebuilding bridges, in and out: feup provides significant support to the community, especially in close cooperation with national industry; a wide range of services is offered, such as: software and prototypes development, expert consulting, technical and economic feasibility studies, chemical analysis and other laboratory support services. feup also holds, on campus, several international scientific events each year.
