Presentation

Iscte is expanding its student accommodation offer through a project funded by the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR) and the National Plan for Student Accommodation in Higher Education (PNAES), which includes three university residences in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area: Odivelas, Amadora and Sintra. This initiative reinforces the institution's commitment to student well-being, inclusion and academic success.

Sintra and Amadora residences, whose buildings have been completed, are currently undergoing a phased operational implementation process, which is expected to be concluded by December. In the second semester of the 2026/2027 academic year, they will be able to operate without any restrictions.
