EDUCATION IS ONE OF THE PILLARS OF A HEALTHY AND PROSPEROUS SOCIETY
Through a synergistic articulation among our academic and corporate structures, we provide multilevel education and outreach ranging from the very basics in support of public and private education institutions, to higher-education at university programs including graduate and doctoral schools. Ensuring profound and robust scientific understanding and literacy enables our trainees, students and professionals to command rigorous comprehensive knowledge of the manifold sciences crucial to decipher nature and empower society, to master the present and shape the future.
The NORA School of GeoSystems and Enabling Technologies, coordinated by Prof. Dr. Rui Perdigão and Dr. Julia Hall, provides a broad diversity of educational and training programs to participants of multiple sectors and educational levels.
Dedicated offerings are in place for research students, scientists, practitioners, executives, decision makers and the broader society through our multi sector multiscale education and extension programs.
The Interuniversity College is an international institutional structure emerging from the Interuniversity Chair in Physics of Complex Coevolutionary Systems and Fluid Dynamical Systems, introduced and coordinated by founding Chair Prof. Dr. Rui A. P. Perdigão across a growing interuniversity network.
The chair disciplines are all proprietary, designed in-house, and then delivered both in our school and under licensing at selected partner institutions.
The Meteoceanics Doctoral School provides structural contributions to Higher and Continuing Education, from doctoral programs to the organization of scientific meetings, conferences, seminar series, short courses and workshops.
Moreover, the School is actively involved in the scientific mentoring of external doctoral students across our collaboration network.
