Coimbra is known for its academic spirit, which is why it is so attractive to so many students. However, the curriculum remains outdated. There are several curricular units that are neither relevant nor prepare us for practical work. A master’s degree is almost always required. Nevertheless, we have quality and renowned professors. Furthermore, the FPCEUC is also known for its research center: CINEICC. It is highly qualified and renowned in Europe and beyond. I recommend it if you want to experience the academic spirit and belong to the University of Coimbra. After all, it’s not for nothing that they say: Saudade cannot be explained, translated, or materialized. In Coimbra, saudade is felt.
