The NOVA IMS Alumni Association's mission is to collaborate in the growth of NOVA IMS. The pursuit of the mission is based on 3 major strategic pillars: networking, mentoring and talks.
Alumni
Strategic Pillars
Identifying, knowing and maintaining relationships with our former students are critical and fundamental tasks in the first pillar. Identifying in which countries and activity sectors they work, and what functions they occupy are priority tasks of the members of the different social organs of the Alumni, either intensively through social networks or personal contacts.
The second pillar is our contribution through our accumulated experience and the roles we play in the development of the different dimensions of NOVA IMS students, especially our undergraduate students.
Finally, the third pillar aims at improving eclectic knowledge, technical and professional skills through lifelong encounters, courses, and conferences in different areas of knowledge. We believe that these are the pillars that allow us to contribute to the development and prestige of NOVA IMS through the personal and professional relevance of our former students.

Having been a student at NOVA IMS in a postgraduate and Master degree programs was an excellent decision. There is a highly prepared and demanding faculty that, in addition to their professional experience, together with the work carried out with colleagues, allowed me to obtain a level of deep theoretical and practical knowledge in this new world, increasingly computerized, digital and accelerating transformation with business impact. Another great advantage was the increase in the diversified networking, which is very important today. Without a doubt, it was a great experience with a very positive feedback that will help me to be better prepared for the challenges of the present and the future.
The experience as a NOVA IMS student was exceptional. The environment is pleasantly conducive to the acquisition of new skills due to the quality of the teaching staff, the facilities, and the successive events that the university promotes to discuss current topics.
Throughout my academic career, NOVA IMS has provided me with the necessary learning to be a better Data Scientist, with its teaching method focused on the most relevant tools in the market and incorporating the most current and basic themes in its curriculum in the creation of good data analysis and statistics professionals. With a practical approach, focused on problem-solving and an academic environment of excellence, with great proximity between teachers and students, NOVA IMS was a school of enormous importance in my development, the right choice for what would be my professional future
NOVA IMS offers a great experience for International students. The quality of teaching is exceptional and qualified, which means that the programs are demanding and not easy, but you are still allowed time to have fun and enjoy Portugal. I am very pleased with my experience, and I have learned a lot.
An excellent education, with a strong connection with the business market, is an undeniable feature of NOVA IMS, and in my opinion, an essential ingredient that has influenced the development of my professional career. I made good friends and valuable contacts for business networking!
