On September 22, 2023, the Instituto Superior de Tecnologias Avançadas de Lisboa (ISTEC Lisboa) welcomed the new students of the Professional Higher Technical Courses to the Lumiar Academic Campus. Welcoming the new students is a special moment for the entire academic community and marks the beginning of a journey of learning and growth.

With the aim of providing a warm and informed introduction to life at ISTEC Lisboa, we worked with the Students’ Association of the Higher Institute of Advanced Technologies of Lisbon (AEISTEC Lisboa), and prepared a series of welcome events and activities that took place throughout Friday afternoon.

We thank you all for being part of this day and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for our students. Together, we will achieve great things!

Welcome to ISTEC Lisboa!

In the next academic year 2023/24, ISTEC Lisboa will have three more courses: a Higher Professional Technical Course and two Bachelor’s Degrees.

The CTeSP in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence delves into fundamental concepts of robotics and artificial intelligence, acquiring essential practical skills to design, develop and implement intelligent systems, where topics such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, robotics and mechatronics will be explored, preparing students to face the innovative challenges offered by industry 4.0 and drive technological innovation.

The Degree in Data Science and Visualization provides solid training in the fundamental areas of data science and information visualization, responding to the growing need for professionals trained in processing, analysing and understanding complex information, combined with skills in emerging areas such as pattern extraction, software engineering, artificial intelligence, data science and ethics and data security.

The Degree in Network Engineering and Computer Security aims to build and deepen knowledge in emerging areas within computer science, as well as contributing to the promotion of skills in computer security and data protection as active learning methodologies applied to the development and application of technological projects in the areas of networks and computer security, including content on digital forensic analysis, cybersecurity and cybercrime or ethical hacking.

The 3 new courses also have strong partnerships with the business community, as these are areas that are proving to be a driving force for development in the most advanced economies. The aim is to boost technological development and innovation in companies and organizations through emerging and innovative areas of study for the job market.

Applications for the 2023/24 academic year are open and ongoing.

The Multiplier Event of the Entrepreneurial Women In ICT – Enhancing Skills to Bridge Digital Divide is an Erasmus+ project that aims to minimize the gap between men and women when it comes to ICT and entrepreneurial skills and opportunities.

In the morning, a series of panels took place in the Hélder Pita Auditorium, with the highlight being “eWomen in Tech”, moderated by Cristina Novo (Polytechnic Institute of Santarém) and with interventions from Elsa Casimiro (Consultant and Project Manager), Dulce Mourato (Professor at ISTEC Lisbon), Carolina Fernandes (Professor and Master’s student at ISTEC Lisbon), Fernanda Ladesma (Professor and President of ANPRI) and Mónica Capristano (Lisbon City Council) and the “eWomen in ICT Intellectual Outputs” panels where all the partners presented their work and the “Training in Tech” panel where the students taking part in the project gave their testimonies.

In the afternoon, four workshops were held where participants could disseminate the project’s products in a more personalized way:
Workshop: Lower Thirds in Adobe After Effects, by Bruno Pinheiro
Workshop: Personal Branding, by Jonathan Martinez and Aritz Castro
Workshop: Photography, by Diogo Algarvio
Workshop: Cybersecurity, by Miguel Miranda and Cristiano Pereira

This project is led by ISTEC Lisboa and has Instituto Politécnico de Santarém, Centre d’Estudis Politècnics, Co Espai and FA-Magdeburg as partners.

The multiplier event for the eWomen In ICT project will take place @ ISTEC – Instituto Superior de Tecnologias Avançadas, Lisbon on March 22, 2023. It’s a free event and everyone is invited to take part. The workshops are free, but registration is compulsory. Please fill in the details in the following form

On October 9, 10 and 11, ISTEC Lisboa will host the international event “Creating Shared Value @VET”, a training event for teachers and trainers, co-financed by the European Union’s Erasmus+ program.

In addition to the partnership with FA Magdeburg (German SME), which began in a previous project, ISTEC Lisboa has 6 new partners: Institute Of Entrepreneurship Development (Greek NGO); For a Better World (Turkish NGO); SC ROGEPA SRL (Romanian SME); Lodzka Izba Przemyslowo-Handlowa (Polish public body); Liceul Tehnologic “Alexandru Domsa” (Romanian vocational school); and Zavod Za Izobrazevanje In Kulturo Crnomelj (Slovenian public body).

The “CSV@VET” project aims to create resources that enable institutions (companies, educational institutions and organizations in general) to develop social responsibility strategies that create added value for their workers/employees, but also for their stakeholders and the communities in which they operate, with a mindset geared towards sustainability and environmental concerns.
Studies and reports on the subject will be developed in various European countries, as well as online courses and a mobile app.
