Introduction
The School of Health Sciences and Technologies at Lusófona University is a central pillar of the institution’s educational project, distinguished by the pedagogical and scientific quality of its initiatives. It is strongly rooted in laboratory-based teaching, which is essential for fostering a culture of experimental learning and the progressive development of knowledge across different levels of study.
The School also ensures continuous quality assessment and monitoring. Bringing together expertise from various fields of human health, ECTS has developed a broad portfolio of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, as well as integrated master’s degrees, always aligned with the needs of society.
