FEP International Week

PROGRAMME

Dear Colleagues & Partners,

The Faculty of Education and Psychology at Universidade Católica Portuguesa (FEP-UCP) in Porto (Portugal) opens the doors to you and your colleagues to join us for the FEP-UCP Fall International Week 2022, which will take place from 24th to 28th October, with the focus on “New Routes to Global Engagement.”

Internationalization reaches the heart of the FEP-UCP agenda and is present in every component of its activities, from teaching and research to social responsibility, enrolling students, staff, and faculties. We believe the commitment to integrate an international and intercultural mindset goes beyond the boundaries of our campuses and has the potential to benefit all stakeholders and partner institutions mutually. It’s our commitment to act in an interconnected global community. However, internationalization is plenty of challenges and complexities that require specific agreements, interrelatedness, appropriate strategic practices, and a massive commitment at all relevant levels.
