The agreement, signed at the Library of the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto, seeks to bridge higher education and the engineering profession. The ceremony included a round table on "Sciences and Engineering”.
The protocol reaffirms the commitment of both institutions to academic excellence and the alignment of training with professional demands, particularly through the EUR-ACE® label for European standards. The Order of Engineers is the accredited entity in Portugal to award this ENAEE seal, recognizing course quality and graduates' readiness for the global market.
This initiative is part of the ongoing efforts by the Order of Engineers with higher education institutions offering Engineering degrees, fostering the link between academic training and professional practice. The goal is to consolidate collaboration and open new avenues for articulation.
This partnership will lead to joint initiatives for training, qualification, and development of future engineers, tailored to current and future sector needs. Both institutions reaffirm their commitment to advancing national Engineering, viewing it as a driver of the country's scientific, technological, and economic progress.
