    In keeping with the practices of major universities in Europe and throughout the world, Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas of Universidade Nova de Lisboa holds its summer school every year, in July and September. It offers a range of intensive short duration courses in all its academic areas. These courses aim to present, discuss and provide intensive yet succinct work on general or more specific matters within the social and human sciences area, covered by various departments. As such, the courses provide a space for participants to update their knowledge and reflect on these matters as well as further enabling specific competencies in each area.

    Working practices: The Summer School organizes its units into modules, with each module being available for a limited number of students. The various courses run either during the day or as evening classes. Participants may opt to study one or several modules, in the same or different areas, depending on their interests and timetable availability. Some modules combine a teaching section with other diverse activities (study visits, film projection, wide-ranging conferences, etc.).

    Each module entitles the participant to an attendance certificate (an attendance list is kept). Upon request for formal evaluation, the certificate will further include the credits awarded.
