Polytechnic University of Lisbon offers a range of services, support networks and programmes for students, as well as infrastructures that support learning. Together, these aim to promote equal opportunities in access to higher education and academic success, while respecting individual differences and encouraging inclusion.
Polytechnic University of Lisbon students can take part in the Polytechnic University of Lisbon Interpeer Mentoring Programme – MENTori@, which is designed to strengthen integration and improve the academic experience in higher education, alongside other activities organised by Polytechnic University of Lisbon and its Schools.
Aware of the important role student organisations play in academic life, Polytechnic University of Lisbon supports the Student Associations of its Schools. These associations help welcome and integrate new students, promote academic spirit, and organise activities that contribute to students’ personal, cultural, recreational and sporting development. Together, they form the Polytechnic University of Lisbon Academic Federation (FAIPL), an associative structure that promotes training, cultural, recreational and sports activities.
