Mission

Welcome to Iscte - School of Sociology and Public Policy.

The Iscte - School of Sociology and Public Policy encompasses some of Iscte’s founding academic disciplines, which have played a pioneering role in the development of the social sciences in Portugal.

The School welcomes over 3,000 students across the 47 degree programmes that make up our academic offering. It offers five undergraduate’s degree programmes: Sociology, Political Science, Modern and Contemporary History, Social Work, International Studies (taught in English) and an optional specialisation in Public Policy. The postgraduate programme comprises 27 master’s degree programmes (five taught in English), 13 PhD programmes (1 taught in English) and 8 postgraduate courses, which enable the School to extend its educational provision to areas such as Humanitarian Action, Public Administration, School Administration and Management, Communication, Education, African Studies, Cultural Studies, Disability Studies, Art Markets, Social Research Methods and Public Policy.

Maintaining the quality of its educational provision whilst pursuing innovation strategies, fostering links between research carried out in its research units and teaching, developing activities to enhance the economic and social value of knowledge in collaboration with the community, and promoting internationalisation amongst students, lecturers and researchers are the guiding principles of our School.

The scientific and pedagogical quality of the School of Sociology and Public Policy courses is underpinned by a highly competent faculty, enabling the institution to contribute to the training of qualified professionals who are capable of analysing, understanding and responding in an informed manner to the major issues facing contemporary societies.
