The Department of Economics is an organic unit of the Iscte-Instituto Universitário de Lisboa, being one of the six departments that make up the Iscte Business School, one of the most prestigious national management and economics schools.
The Department of Economics currently has 22 teachers. Of these, 15 have doctorates. The remaining seven are guest professors, with highly prestigious professional careers developed in important private and public companies, as well as in Public Administration, including participation in government functions. This range of teachers – strongly committed to the teaching and research activities typical of a reference university and simultaneously knowledgeable and studious about the applied reality of the Portuguese and international economy – constitutes one of our most significant added values. This is a highly motivated and dynamic group of teachers, committed to actively contributing to society by training students and disseminating the results of the research activities carried out.
Still in the field of teaching, we assume a central concern with pedagogical quality and we cultivate a spirit of proximity between teachers and students, capable of stimulating open debate and promoting a more fruitful learning process.
In addition to excellence in teaching, we also aim for excellence in research. At this level, we are guided by the most demanding international criteria. In conjunction with Bru-Iscte, a research center financed by FCT within which the Department's doctorate professors carry out their research activities, we focus on scientific merit, particularly encouraging publication in the best international journals (ISI/SCOPUS). This strategy has led to an enormous growth in research outputs carried out by the Department's teachers, allowing it to currently position itself in a highly prominent position in the context of national universities.
With a past of experience and accumulated knowledge, a present that we are proud of, a permanent desire to evolve and a solid commitment to academic excellence, the Department of Economics aspires and works actively to build an even better future.
Come and create it with us!
