The year was 2007 and the reform of the Portuguese higher education system was underway, promoted through the implementation of the Legal Regime of Higher Education Institutions. Within the scope of public higher education, a new type of institutions were created, public foundations governed by private law.
These public foundations, among other aspects, are characterized by:
· They are governed by private law, particularly with regard to financial, asset and personnel management, having autonomy to create their own careers for their teaching, research or other staff;
· Be financed by the State.
The legal model of the Foundational Regime aims to give universities greater autonomy and management flexibility, and promote greater efficiency and effectiveness in the governance of institutions. In this context, the statutory assembly of the Instituto Superior de Ciências do Trabalho e da Empresa (ISCTE) requested the Government to transform it into a public foundation governed by private law.
The transition to the Foundational Regime took into account the Strategic Development Plan that supported the proposal presented to the government, as well as the Program Contract signed with the State in September 2009.
Iscte – Instituto Universitário de Lisboa was established as a Public Foundation with a Private Law Regime by Decree-Law No. 95/2009 of April 27, under the terms of Law No. 62/2007 of September 10, which established the Legal Regime of Higher Education Institutions (RJIES).
