Instituto Superior Técnico

Instituto Superior Técnico is a public, research‑intensive school of engineering within the University of Lisbon and the country’s largest engineering educator, with three campuses across the Lisbon metropolitan area. Its Taguspark campus sits inside a major science and technology park, placing researchers and students alongside companies for joint labs, internships, and contract R&D. A technological and nuclear campus and extensive co‑located laboratories enable specialized testing, advanced instrumentation access, and on‑site industry collaboration. Research is supported by Portugal’s national science foundation and European Union programmes, including Horizon Europe and ERC, with a dedicated technology transfer office that manages IP, licensing, and spin‑offs.
