By the largest university in Portugal
Since 2019, IDP and the Higher Institute of Social and Political Sciences of the University of Lisbon (ISCSP-ULisboa) have been working together to promote joint initiatives for teaching, research and outreach in the area of Public Management. In July 2023, this partnership reached a new level with the signing of a Cooperation Agreement for the joint implementation of a Specialized Training Program in Public Management and Policies.
Through this Program
Professors and students from IDP's Stricto Sensu Programs will have access to an Exclusive Class of the Master's in Management and Public Policies at ISCSP-ULisboa. This opens up a unique and exclusive opportunity for IDP Master's and Doctoral students, who will be able to obtain an international qualification during the regular completion period of their program: a Master in Management and Public Policies from the University of Lisbon, a title valid throughout the European community.
