The program

Bachelor’s in Economics

The undergraduate program in Economics is structured in semesters. For each course attended and successfully completed, students are awarded a number of ECTS (European Credit Transfer System).

In order to complete the undergraduate in Economics, it is mandatory to enroll in at least six academic semesters and successfully achieve between 180 and 195 ECTS credits.

Our Bachelor’s programs are taught in English. However, exclusively during their first year, students may choose one of the three possible options:

1) all classes in English (in this case, upon graduating students may request a declaration stating that they completed the whole program in English); or
2) “Calculus I”, “Calculus II” and “Linear Algebra with Programming” in Portuguese and the remaining classes in English; or
3) all classes in Portuguese. The second and third years are only taught in English.

The second and third years are only taught in English.
