Iscte – Instituto Universitário de Lisboa and the Faculdade de Direito da Universidade de Lisboa (FDUL) signed a cooperation protocol last Monday, the 7th. The agreement – valid for five years – aims to make the most of the synergies between the two institutions, namely in the teaching of Law. On Iscte's side, the document was signed by the Rector, Helena Carreiras; on FDUL's side, it was signed by the faculty's director, Eduardo Vera-Cruz Pinto.
Under the new protocol, the undergraduate degree in Law, which is making its debut at Iscte this academic year, will allow researchers to take part in FDUL's research projects; lecturers on this degree enrolled on FDUL master's or doctoral programmes will also benefit from a reduced fee. In addition, Iscte's Law students will be able to take part on a preferential basis in seminars, conferences and other events organised by FDUL's management. The protocol also opens the way for an exchange of lecturers between the two institutions' Law courses.
Diniz Lopes, director of the School of Social Sciences, highlights the significance of this partnership for Iscte's new course: "The signing of the collaboration protocol is a strategic milestone for the success of the new undergraduate degree in Law. This institutional partnership reflects both entities' commitment to academic excellence, pedagogical innovation and the training of lawyers prepared to meet the contemporary challenges of society and the labour market". Diniz Lopes adds: "By promoting joint initiatives in teaching, research and knowledge-sharing, the protocol strengthens the quality and profile of Iscte's new course offering, helping to establish an interdisciplinary approach to legal education aligned with the highest academic standards".
