General Information

Católica - Lisbon School of Law is a leading law school in Portugal. Foreseeing and moving side by side with society’s needs and demands, the Law School is permanently evolving, both in terms of its degrees and teaching methods. From the beginning of this century, the Law School undertook a strategy of reform, with the goal of becoming more internationally oriented, more connected with law firms, companies and public agencies, and pedagogically innovative.

 

The internationalisation strategy is decisive for Católica - Lisbon School of Law. Other than the international recognition of Católica Global School of Law, founded in 2009 in order to promote courses in English, it becomes evident throughout the School with the undergraduate Transnational Law Curriculum, as well as through the partnerships developed with some of the most prestigious Law Schools worldwide. The School of Law ensures the high quality of the academic offer at all levels, especially by recruiting Portuguese and international professors from some of the most highly regarded European and American universities.

 

The campus of Palma de Cima (Lisbon) is composed of three buildings in a total area of 43,000 square meters, which include classrooms, auditoriums, computer rooms, a library, bars, canteens and restaurant, associative and social spaces, bookstore, copy center, etc.
