The education at ISCTE-IUL is based on the European Credit Accumulation and Transfer System (ECTS) credits and grading scale to facilitate the transfer of credits and marks after the examination sessions.
The mission of ISCTE is to create and convey scientific knowledge according to the best international standards, training highly skilled professionals, mainly at the postgraduate level, in the areas of management, information technology and architecture, social sciences and public policy, for the advancement of society.
