“I chose NOVA FCT because of its high national reputation in engineering education. NOVA FCT is recognized for its academic excellence and ability to provide quality training, which is essential for those, like me, who aim to pursue an international career.
The Master's played a crucial role at the start of my career, as for many engineering jobs, it is a minimum requirement. It is also a competitive advantage, allowing for better salary negotiations, for example.
In my view, the main skills this course teaches are problem-solving, critical thinking, teamwork, adaptability, and time management. I recommend the Master's in Physical Engineering as it offers the best combination of Science and Engineering, opening doors to a wide variety of career opportunities in both fields”.

The Department of Physics (DF), formally established in 1986, was a pioneer in Portugal in teaching Physics Engineering. The DF's scientific activity mainly develops in two Research Units, LIBPhys and CEFITEC. Among the research and development activities are atomic, molecular, nuclear physics instrumentation and electronic and industrial automation with applications in analytical methods, radiation detection, and biomedical engineering, optics, and photonics, metrology, and spectrometries.
