Integration

The Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP) has a Mentoring program to promote the integration of new students in the university environment, adapted to the characteristics of each course. The promotion of this social and academic integration program is carried out by senior students (mentors) who attend the different programmes in more advanced years, and coordinated by a team of teachers. DEQ supports these activities together with the directors of the courses with which it collaborates.

Student Bodies

To make academic life more stimulating and productive, students organize themselves around common interests, creating associations and groups focused on many different topics as music, radio, or engineering. Among the various groups of students at FEUP, DEQ has a more intrinsic relationship with the associations integrated in the undergraduate courses – MIEQ, MIEA and MIB.

Extracurricular activities

In addition to the activities promoted by the student groups, the University of Porto offers a wide range of options in the areas of culture and sport. This is in line with the conviction that the university is much more than a space for the acquisition and development of academic knowledge, but that aims to contribute to the development of talent at various levels.

  • Handball (Female and Male)
  • Basketball (Female and Male)

Culture

The existence of a Cultural Committee at FEUP proves the enormous importance that is attributed to the cultural and artistic areas.

Activities ranging from music to theater, exhibitions, cinema cycles, debates about art and society, among others, are regularly organized. One of the most emblematic projects is FEUP’s Classical Orchestra, with weekly rehearsals. Some of these activities are promoted in partnership with other cultural institutions.

Throughout the year there are also Painting and Music Workshops, open to students, teachers and other employees.
