FEP has made a strong commitment to the training in English, which is reflected in the increasing number of courses. Currently the School offers more than 120 courses taught in English, at undergraduate and graduate programmes, which means that international students, who have not mastered the Portuguese language, can easily spend a semester at FEP, and also that Portuguese students at FEP can develop their English language skills. These units are also an opportunity for the development of intercultural skills as a consequence of the presence of various nationalities in the same classroom.
