Finding a flat/room is not easy at the moment in Lisbon, so we advise you to start your search early.
When deciding about living in Lisboa or in the neighbourhood of FMH you should consider that the practical classes start rather early in the morning, and that it will take almost 1 hour to get from Lisbon to the Faculty by public transport.
Please find below the links for the Lisbon Erasmus Organizations, with very useful information for incoming students (especially about accommodation).
Students are expected to spend about:
Students are advised to come one week before the beginning of the semester in order to get settled. The orientation week will take place in this week (you will receive information about the day/time you are due to come to FMH to deal with all the necessary paperwork and schedule).
All classes are in Portuguese, so students are advised to take some Portuguese classes in advance. For a reduced number of courses, it will be possible to arrange for tutorials in English (B2 level required). However, if you intend to take theoretical courses, we strongly recommend students learn Portuguese before their arrival. No Language Certificates are required.
You can take courses from other Faculties provided that 60% of your chosen courses are from FMH. These courses have to be part of your Learning Agreement, and depend on the acceptance of the other Faculty of ULISBOA.
Information, in English, on the courses offered may be found here: (http://www.fmh.ulisboa.pt/en/undergraduate). A list with courses available for all Erasmus students will be updated every semester and sent to you with the acceptance message.
In case your level of Portuguese is higher than B1, and you are able to attend courses in Portuguese, you may also take a look at the Portuguese version of our website: for Undergraduate courses, click here and for Master, here.
Please note that there might be some slight changes regarding the allocation of subjects to the 1st or 2nd semester (winter and spring semesters), which will only be known after the schedules are published.
You can take courses from any of our Bachelor and Master courses.
