Student Support

As the Student Support Unit, we aim to promote the integration of students and contribute to providing appropriate assistance throughout their academic journey, should they need it.

We are available every business day, from 9:00 to 16:00, at the Reception of the Central Pavilion.

On this page, various types of support that Técnico offers and useful information for students are described.

Integration

To facilitate integration and adaptation to academic life, we promote the Mentoring Programme, implemented with the support of students of more advanced years (Mentors) who share their academic experiences with new students (Mentees). The Mentees can be first-cycle students, second-cycle students, or international mobility students.

To have a Mentor, simply send a request to us by e-mail to nape@tecnico.ulisboa.pt with the following information about yourself: full name, Técnico ID (student number), Master Degree, phone number and e-mail.
