Whether it be NGOs, governmental agencies, environmental organisations or other directions, this MA program will excellently prepare you for a diverse professional life and career.

To promote advanced formation, multi and interdisciplinary in scientific areas related to PhD in Environmental, Marine and Earth Sciences. Development of skills and scientific training at the highest level, including scientific analysis, innovation, critical thinking, decision-making and independent research work

The interest, opportunity and need underpinning the Master's degree in Environmental Studies are closely related to the educational perspective of the Bologna process. They also have to do with issues of social relevance, of the market and of scientific and pedagogical development.

The Master in Environmental Engineering (MEA) of the University of Aveiro (UA) aims to train technicians capable of predicting and characterizing environmental problems and dysfunctions and of proposing solutions to avoid and solve them, technically and financially viable. It is based on the UA's experience and competence in the area of Environmental Engineering, which enables a better integration of knowledge in a holistic approach for understanding the processes and operation of environmental systems, ensuring an inter and multidisciplinary training in diversified areas and in a European context, and allowing flexibility and alternation in employment.

The Doctoral Program in Environmental Science and Engineering at the UA aims to produce highly trained professionals who are qualified to carry out autonomous research in the field of Environmental Science and Engineering, and thus respond to the recruitment needs of the academic and business sectors and public institutions.

The U.Porto Doctoral Program in Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, offered by ICBAS, FCUP, FFUP, CIIMAR, i3S, and REQUIMTE, aims to train experts to address environmental challenges from climate change and population growth. PhD graduates will innovate research, technologies, and solutions to mitigate climate impacts, ensure essential goods, reduce pollution, and promote sustainability, biodiversity conservation, and global health.

Training of professionally competent and qualified staff to understand, conceive, design and implement optimized technical solutions in the areas of Exploration, Exploitation, and Treatment of Mineral Raw Materials, as well as in the area of the Geoenvironment, with a view to environmental preservation, recovery, and sustainability, understood as fundamental pillars of social cohesion and well-being.

The Master in Technologies for Environmental Enhancement and Energy Production aims to give graduates, in different areas of engineering, skills in the fields of recovery and treatment of waste and the production of energy from renewable sources that are alternatives to more traditional sources, namely fossil fuels.

The Doctoral Programme is related to the course’s teaching staff’s national and international research projects that have resulted in a considerable number of scientific articles.
