  • Student Activities

    I’ve been admitted to NOVA IMS. What’s next?

    Registration and enrollment is made online, through the NetP@Academic Portal, within the period established for it in the Academic Calendar, available here, (by selecting your course);
    After creating your personal password to access NOVA IMS’ platforms (through a link that will be sent to your personal email, after the payment of the pre-enrollment fee), you must login to the Netp@ portal and follow these steps to complete your registration and enrollment:

    • Upload a photo in “My Profile” / “Change Picture”;
    • Fill out all of the mandatory fields in every tab (Student Personal Data, Academic Route and Parents’ Data) of the “Personal Data” menu. This data is required for the RAIDES Survey, which is the annual survey of national scope for the Registration of the enrolled and graduate students in Higher Education, addressed to all higher education establishments in Portugal; it aims to characterize the system of higher education, in terms of enrolled students and graduates. This survey is conducted by the DGEEC and is mandatory;
    • Lastly, select “Register/Enroll” and, after accepting the Terms and Conditions, select the curricular units that you want to enroll in. Registration is made annually and enrollment in the curricular units is made before each semester.

    Can I enroll in only some of the elective curricular units from my course?

    You should consider your course’s study plan, available here (by selecting your course), and the mandatory and optional curricular units and their respective ECTS, so that, during your course’s term, you can fulfill the necessary requirements to complete it.
    Bachelor’s students can enroll in up to 45 ECTS per semester and are advised to read the following Regulations, available here:

    • Part-Time Student Regulation;
    • NOVA IMS’ Regulation of the Student Achievement Assessment;
    • Prescription Regulation.

    Postgraduate, Master’s and Doctoral students can enroll in up to 37,5 ECTS per semester.

    Can I change my classes?

    It is possible to change your classes in the Netp@ portal, during the enrollment periods of each semester, which are established in the Academic Calendar, available here, (by selecting your course).

    To change a class after an enrollment period has ended, you must contact the Academic Services, through the Contact Form.

    You can only switch classes if there are still vacancies available in the intended class, and if it doesn’t overlap with other curricular units you’re enrolled in, which you can confirm by checking your course’s class timetable, available here (by selecting your course).

    If a mandatory curricular unit and an optional curricular unit overlap (and if it is not possible to switch to another class of the optional curricular unit, in a non-conflicting schedule), you should enroll in a different optional curricular unit, that does not overlap with the mandatory curricular unit.

    How can I change my attendance format?

    The course’s attendance format (daytime or after working hours) must be carefully considered before applying at NOVA IMS. As there is a numerus clausus for each course and corresponding format, it may not be possible to switch formats after admission. On the other hand, there may not be vacancies available in the mandatory curricular units of the format to which the student intends to switch to.

    Can I enroll in curricular units from other courses?

    The optional curricular units that you can enroll in are those listed in NOVA IMS’ website, in the “Study Plan” menu of your course. If a curricular unit you intend to enroll in is not listed there (and, therefore, is not included in the class timetable), you will not be able to enroll in it. Most likely, it is an exclusive curricular unit from another Postgraduate Program or Master’s Degree Program.

    Can I cancel or suspend my enrollment?

    In agreement with the Terms and Conditions that the student must read and validate at the time of his/her registration (specific to point 2) the cancellation of registration does not exclude the student from paying tuition for the academic year in which he or she is enrolled.

    However, Postgraduate, Master’s and Doctoral students can request the suspension of their enrollment within the first 90 consecutive days of the academic year, counted from the first day of classes, which assures their vacancy in the following academic year. It also allows the student to re-enroll in the following academic year, in the same course, without having to pay the tuition fee again (the amount paid in the suspended academic year is transferred to the academic year of re-enrollment).
    This request does not exempt students from the payment of the tuition fee of the academic year they are currently enrolled in, which has to be paid in full for the suspension to be finalized.

    For detailed information about the suspension process, you can contact the Academic Services, through the Contact Form.

    I was a student at NOVA IMS but didn’t complete my course. How can I re-enroll?

    To re-enroll in your course (after an interruption of, at least, 1 academic year) you must, before the beginning of the academic year you wish to enroll in, request it to the Academic Services, through the Contact Form.

    Re-enrollment requests have a fee of €70. After receiving the request, along with the mentioned payment, the Academic Services will consider your previously completed curricular units and verify which curricular units you will have to approve to complete the course. Before the enrollment period, you will be informed, by email, of the re-enrollment’s conditions and corresponding tuition fees.

    For courses that begin in September, re-enrollment must be requested in July; for courses that begin in February, it must be requested in January.

    How does the prescription regime work?

    For detailed information about the prescription regime (which applies only to Bachelor’s Degree students), check the Prescription Regulation, available here.

    I’m a Postgraduate student. How can I transition to a Master’s Degree Program?

    Registration and enrollment in a Postgraduate Program allows students to continue their studies and transition to a Master’s Degree Program.

    Students from Postgraduate Programs that begin in September will be informed, by December of the same year (after the conclusion of the Fall Semester), of the transition’s rules and conditions and how they can request it. Students from Postgraduate Programs that begin in February will be informed, by December of the same year (after the conclusion of the Fall Semester), of the transition’s rules and conditions and how they can request it.
    For students enrolled in Postgraduate Programs that are directly related to a Master’s Degree Program (i.e. that correspond to a Master’s specialization), transition requests are automatically accepted, if made within the stipulated period. The tuition fee to be paid for the 2nd year of the course will be the standard tuition fee defined for the 2nd year of the Master’s Degree Program in question.
    For students enrolled in Postgraduate Programs that are not directly related to a Master’s Degree Program (i.e. that do not correspond to a Master’s specialization), transition requests are evaluated case by case by the Course Coordinators. If accepted, then up to 30 ECTS approved in the Postgraduate Program can be transferred to the Master’s Degree Program. Students will be informed, by email, of the added tuition fees that the transition will entail.

  • Isolated Curricular Unit

    I’m not a student at NOVA IMS. Can I still enroll in curricular units?

    If you are not a student at NOVA IMS, but want to enroll in isolated curricular units, you must request it to the Academic Services, through the Contact Form.
    The request will then be evaluated by the Course Coordinators.

    I’ve completed curricular units outside of NOVA IMS. Can I transfer credits to NOVA IMS?

    Yes, as long as the external curricular unit is from the same degree as the curricular unit you intend to credit, i.e. only curricular units from a Bachelor’s Degree Program can be credited in another Bachelor’s Degree Program.

    How will the Student’s Support Services (Academic Services, IT Services, Financial Services, Erasmus Office and Student’ Support Office) work?

    All NOVA IMS’ services will be available in person. Timetables are available here.

    To attend online classes, do I always use the same videoconference link?

    No, each course unit that is managed by a different teacher has one or more links to online classes (theoretical and practical) associated. Before each class, you should check Moodle for the link to the class in that course unit. Please note that, in the same course unit, the links to theoretical and practical classes may be different.

    What are the academic platforms used by NOVA IMS?

    • netP@ - registration and enrollment in course units, consultation of the syllabus of course units, consultation of partial and final grades of course units, financial situation, request of documents from the Academic Services, etc.;
    • Moodle – present the learning materials for each course unit, receive information about classes, access links of videoconferences for online classes, submit assessment papers, create work groups, etc.;
    • Webmail – all NOVA IMS communications will be sent to the institutional email (2022....@novaims.unl.pt). You should access this account regularly, or if you prefer, forward it to another email account you access more frequently.

    Why can't I access Moodle?

  • Accreditation Process

    I was previously a university student. Can I transfer credits to NOVA IMS?

    Yes, as long as the external course unit is from the same degree as the course unit you intend to credit, i.e., only course units from a master’s degree Program can be credited to a master’s degree Program. It’s not possible to transfer credits from a bachelor’s degree to a master’s degree Program. Accreditation requests must be made to the Academic Services, through the Contact Form, by submitting the following documents:

    • Certificate of Attendance (or Completion) in previous school/institution;
    • Syllabus, validated by the previous school/institution, of the course unit you intend to transfer;
    • Proper request form, provided by the Academic Services.

    Since NOVA IMS abides by the emolument table defined by Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, each request will have a different calculated fee, depending on the program and number of ECTS. Accreditations are not automatically granted by making the request and paying the fee. The request is forwarded to the Accreditation Commission and to the Scientific Council and can either be accepted or declined based on their evaluation. In either case, the previously mentioned fee is not refunded.

    • Master’s and Postgraduate Students can transfer up to 30 ECTS;
    • Doctoral Students can transfer up to 20 ECTS.

  • Registration and Enrollment

    I was admitted to NOVA IMS. What should I do now?

    The registration process in the Program to which you were admitted is carried out online, through the Academic Portal NetP@, within the period established for this purpose in the academic calendar, available here, on the page of each program in NOVA IMS’ website.

    After creating your personal password to access NOVA IMS’ platforms via a link you will receive in your personal email, after paying the pre-registration fee), you must access NetP@ and take the following steps to formalize your registration/ subscription:

     

    • Upload a photo in “My Profile” / “Change Picture”;
    • Fill in all mandatory fields, on all tabs, in the “Personal Data” tab. The requested data are necessary for the annual RAIDES Survey - Register of Enrolled Students and Graduates of Higher Education, nationwide, addressed to all higher education establishments, which aims to characterize the higher education system, in terms of enrolled and graduate Students. This survey is requested by the General Directorate of Education and Science Statistics (DGEEC) and its completion is mandatory by law;
    • Finally, select the option “Registration and Enrollment” and, after acceptance of the Terms and Conditions associated with enrollment, select the course units to which you intend to enroll. Registration takes place annually and enrollment in course units is biannual (each semester).

    Can I enroll only in some of the elective course units of my program?

    You should consider your Program’s study plan and the number of mandatory and elective course units (and ECTS in question) so that, during the term of your Program, you can comply with the total number of ECTS to be approved, according to the study plan in NOVA IMS' website, in the page of the program in question.

     

    The maximum ECTS limit that Postgraduate, Masters and Doctoral Students can enroll in each semester is 37.5 ECTS. We advise Students to carefully read the NOVA IMS' Student Assessment and Development Regulation [in Portuguese].

    Can I change classes?

    It is possible to change classes through the NetP@ during the period established for enrollment, in each semester. Information about the online application period is available here, on the page of each program in NOVA IMS’ website.

    If you decide to change class after the defined period, you must contact the Academic Services through the Contact Form

    The possibility of changing the class is conditioned by the number of vacancies in the intended class (destination class), as well as, if there is a vacancy, you must confirm by consulting the stipulated class timetable for your program (available in NOVA IMS’ website, on your program page) whether or not there is an overlap of timetable with another course unit to which you are enrolled.

    In case of overlapping timetables between a mandatory course unit and an elective course unit (and if you are unable to choose another class of the desired optional, in another timetable that does not generate an overlap), you should choose another optional course unit that does not overlaps with the mandatory course unit.

    How can I change my attendance format?

    The choice of the attendance format (working hours/daytime or after working hours/evening) should be a factor subject to much consideration before applying for a particular program. After admission to a program with a certain frequency format (daytime or after-work), it is not possible to guarantee a change to another format (working hours/daytime or after working hours/evening) since a numerus clausus is defined for program/format. On the other hand, it is not possible to guarantee that there are vacancies available for enrollment in each mandatory course unit of the format to which the student intends to be changed, to the detriment of the format to which the candidate was effectively admitted.

    Can I enroll in elective course units from other programs?

    The elective course units to which you can enroll (via NetP@) are those listed in your program’s page, in NOVA IMs’ website, in the “Study Plan” menu. If the course unit you intend to enroll in as an option/elective does not appear in the list of available course units (and therefore will not appear in the class timetable), you will not be able to enroll. It will be an exclusive course unit of another Postgraduate/Master program.

  • Tuition Fees

    What is the tuition fee? What is the tuition fee of my program and when should I pay?

    The Tuition Fee is the fee associated with each program and is payable by each student from the moment the enrollment is completed.

    The tuition fees to be paid for each program, the payment deadlines and discounts are available in NOVA IMS’ website, on the page of each program, under the menu “Admissions and Fees”.

    After registering and enrolling, you will have access to information on values and deadlines for payment of tuition fees in your NetP@ profile, in the menu “Financial Situation” / “Payments”. There you can select each item to pay and generate ATM references for payment.

    IIt is not possible to change payment deadlines or amounts through NetP@. Any request for change (such as, for example, changing the method of payment of installments to full payment or applying discounts) must be made through the Academic Services’ Contact Form.

    In case of non-compliance with the defined deadlines, you may request a separate payment plan through the Academic Services’ Contact Form.

    What are the methods of payment of the tuition fee?

    The tuition fee can be paid by:

    • By ATM reference, which you can generate in NetP@ in the “Financial Situation” / “Payments” tab;
    • By bank transfer, upon request of bank details to the Financial Services (in case of Undergraduate, Masters or Doctoral degrees) or to the Academic Services (in case of a Postgraduate Program);
    • By MB Way;
    • By Credit Card;
    • By Teaching/Education Ticket, by presenting it to the Financial Services (in case of Undergraduate, Masters or Doctoral degrees) or to the Academic Services (in case of a Postgraduate Program);

    Where can I check my timetable?

    The timetables will be available in NOVA IMS’ website, on the page of each Program, in the "Timetable" menu, one or two months prior to the beginning of the semester - for example: the timetable of the Fall Semester will be available in July and the timetable of the Spring Semester will be available in January. You should consider the classes for enrollment in theoretical and practical classes before the period of registration and enrollment in Netp@. After selecting the course units for the 1st semester, you will also have to select the theoretical classes (TP) and practical classes (P).

    What should I do before going to campus?

    Please watch the video available here.

    If a person is infected by COVID-19 or is at risk of infection and has to be in prophylactic isolation, how will they be able to attend classes?

  • Registration and Enrollment

    I was admitted to NOVA IMS. What should I do now?

    The registration process in the Program to which you were admitted is carried out online, through the Academic Portal NetP@, within the period established for this purpose in the academic calendar, available here, on the page of each program in NOVA IMS’ website.

    After creating your personal password to access NOVA IMS’ platforms via a link you will receive in your personal email, after paying the pre-registration fee), you must access NetP@ and take the following steps to formalize your registration/ subscription:

     

    • Upload a photo in “My Profile” / “Change Picture”;
    • Fill in all mandatory fields, on all tabs, in the “Personal Data” tab. The requested data are necessary for the annual RAIDES Survey - Register of Enrolled Students and Graduates of Higher Education, nationwide, addressed to all higher education establishments, which aims to characterize the higher education system, in terms of enrolled and graduate Students. This survey is requested by the General Directorate of Education and Science Statistics (DGEEC) and its completion is mandatory by law;
    • Finally, select the option “Registration and Enrollment” and, after acceptance of the Terms and Conditions associated with enrollment, select the course units to which you intend to enroll. Registration takes place annually and enrollment in course units is biannual (each semester).

    Can I enroll only in some of the elective course units of my program?

    You should consider your Program’s study plan and the number of mandatory and elective course units (and ECTS in question) so that, during the term of your Program, you can comply with the total number of ECTS to be approved, according to the study plan in NOVA IMS' website, in the page of the program in question.

     

    The maximum ECTS limit that Postgraduate, Masters and Doctoral Students can enroll in each semester is 37.5 ECTS. We advise Students to carefully read the NOVA IMS' Student Assessment and Development Regulation [in Portuguese].

    Can I change classes?

    It is possible to change classes through the NetP@ during the period established for enrollment, in each semester. Information about the online application period is available here, on the page of each program in NOVA IMS’ website.

    If you decide to change class after the defined period, you must contact the Academic Services through the Contact Form

    The possibility of changing the class is conditioned by the number of vacancies in the intended class (destination class), as well as, if there is a vacancy, you must confirm by consulting the stipulated class timetable for your program (available in NOVA IMS’ website, on your program page) whether or not there is an overlap of timetable with another course unit to which you are enrolled.

    In case of overlapping timetables between a mandatory course unit and an elective course unit (and if you are unable to choose another class of the desired optional, in another timetable that does not generate an overlap), you should choose another optional course unit that does not overlaps with the mandatory course unit.

    How can I change my attendance format?

    The choice of the attendance format (working hours/daytime or after working hours/evening) should be a factor subject to much consideration before applying for a particular program. After admission to a program with a certain frequency format (daytime or after-work), it is not possible to guarantee a change to another format (working hours/daytime or after working hours/evening) since a numerus clausus is defined for program/format. On the other hand, it is not possible to guarantee that there are vacancies available for enrollment in each mandatory course unit of the format to which the student intends to be changed, to the detriment of the format to which the candidate was effectively admitted.

    Can I enroll in elective course units from other programs?

    The elective course units to which you can enroll (via NetP@) are those listed in your program’s page, in NOVA IMs’ website, in the “Study Plan” menu. If the course unit you intend to enroll in as an option/elective does not appear in the list of available course units (and therefore will not appear in the class timetable), you will not be able to enroll. It will be an exclusive course unit of another Postgraduate/Master program.

  • Tuition Fees

    What is the tuition fee? What is the tuition fee of my program and when should I pay?

    The Tuition Fee is the fee associated with each program and is payable by each student from the moment the enrollment is completed.

    The tuition fees to be paid for each program, the payment deadlines and discounts are available in NOVA IMS’ website, on the page of each program, under the menu “Admissions and Fees”.

    After registering and enrolling, you will have access to information on values and deadlines for payment of tuition fees in your NetP@ profile, in the menu “Financial Situation” / “Payments”. There you can select each item to pay and generate ATM references for payment.

    IIt is not possible to change payment deadlines or amounts through NetP@. Any request for change (such as, for example, changing the method of payment of installments to full payment or applying discounts) must be made through the Academic Services’ Contact Form.

    In case of non-compliance with the defined deadlines, you may request a separate payment plan through the Academic Services’ Contact Form.

    What are the methods of payment of the tuition fee?

    The tuition fee can be paid by:

    • By ATM reference, which you can generate in NetP@ in the “Financial Situation” / “Payments” tab;

    • By Teaching/Education Ticket, by presenting it to the Financial Services (in case of Undergraduate, Masters or Doctoral degrees) or to the Academic Services (in case of a Postgraduate Program);

However, if there are Postgraduate, Master and Doctoral Students who wish to attend the classes online in the academic year 2021-22 , these on-site classes will also be streamed online, in real time. To attend online classes, the Students must use the videoconference link that each Teacher will publish in Moodle, in the respective course unit.

    All exams will be taken in person on campus. As a general rule, there will not be online exams. Exceptions for exams or any other assessment formats will be handled by the channels defined for this purpose in the Academic Services.

    Where can I check my timetable?

    The timetables will be available in NOVA IMS’ website, on the page of each Program, in the "Timetable" menu, one or two months prior to the beginning of the semester - for example: the timetable of the Fall Semester will be available in July and the timetable of the Spring Semester will be available in January. You should consider the classes for enrollment in theoretical and practical classes before the period of registration and enrollment in Netp@. After selecting the course units for the 1st semester, you will also have to select the theoretical classes (TP) and practical classes (P).

    What should I do before going to campus?

    Please watch the video available here.

    If a person is infected by COVID-19 or is at risk of infection and has to be in prophylactic isolation, how will they be able to attend classes?

    The Student must inform NOVA IMS contact points that they are ill or in prophylactic isolation (Pedro Bernardino: +351 963 900 820; Sara Ribeiro: +351 928 099 528; Filipe Palma: +351 969 415 164). If the clinical situation allows, they must attend all online classes until the health authorities authorize the return to face-to-face/on-site teaching.

    What is @NOVA IMS App for?

    The purpose of the @NOVA IMS App (available for Android and iOS) is to register the attendance of Students in the classroom. In case there is an infected NOVA IMS’ community member, the @NOVA IMS App will allow you to know the other NOVA IMS community members who were in close contact with the infected member and send this information to the Health Authorities who will establish the appropriate notification protocol and counseling with these members.

    How will the Student’s Support Services (Academic Services, IT Services, Financial Services, Erasmus Office and Student’ Support Office) work?

    All NOVA IMS’ services will be available online and in person. Timetables are available here.

    To attend online classes, do I always use the same videoconference link?

    No, each course unit that is managed by a different teacher has one or more links to online classes (theoretical and practical) associated. Before each class, you should check Moodle for the link to the class in that course unit. Please note that, in the same course unit, the links to theoretical and practical classes may be different.

    What are the academic platforms used by NOVA IMS?

    • NetP@ - registration and enrollment in course units, consultation of the syllabus of course units, consultation of partial and final grades of course units, financial situation, request of documents from the Academic Services, etc.;
    • Moodle – present the learning materials for each course unit, receive information about classes, access links of videoconferences for online classes, submit assessment papers, create work groups, etc.;

    If you are not able to access Moodle with your credentials, you should contact the IT Services: si@novaims.unl.pt

  • Accreditation Process

    I was previously a university student. Can I transfer credits to NOVA IMS?

In either case, the previously mentioned fee is not refunded.

    There is a limit to the number of credits that can be transferred to NOVA IMS:

    • Master’s and Postgraduate Students can transfer up to 30 ECTS;
    • Doctoral Students can transfer up to 20 ECTS.

    Where can I check my timetable?

    The timetables will be available in NOVA IMS’ website, on the page of each Program, in the "Timetable" menu, one or two months prior to the beginning of the semester - for example: the timetable of the Fall Semester will be available in July and the timetable of the Spring Semester will be available in January. You should consider the classes for enrollment in theoretical and practical classes before the period of registration and enrollment in netP@.

  • Registration and Enrollment

    I was admitted to NOVA IMS. What should I do now?

    The registration process in the Program to which you were admitted is carried out online, through the Academic Portal NetP@, within the period established for this purpose in the academic calendar, available here, on the page of each program in NOVA IMS’ website.

    After creating your personal password to access NOVA IMS’ platforms via a link you will receive in your personal email, after paying the pre-registration fee), you must access NetP@ and take the following steps to formalize your registration/ subscription:

     

    • Upload a photo in “My Profile” / “Change Picture”;
    • Fill in all mandatory fields, on all tabs, in the “Personal Data” tab. The requested data are necessary for the annual RAIDES Survey - Register of Enrolled Students and Graduates of Higher Education, nationwide, addressed to all higher education establishments, which aims to characterize the higher education system, in terms of enrolled and graduate Students. This survey is requested by the General Directorate of Education and Science Statistics (DGEEC) and its completion is mandatory by law;
    • Finally, select the option “Registration and Enrollment” and, after acceptance of the Terms and Conditions associated with enrollment, select the course units to which you intend to enroll. Registration takes place annually and enrollment in course units is biannual (each semester).

    Can I enroll only in some of the elective course units of my program?

    You should consider your Program’s study plan and the number of mandatory and elective course units (and ECTS in question) so that, during the term of your Program, you can comply with the total number of ECTS to be approved, according to the study plan in NOVA IMS' website, in the page of the program in question.

    The maximum ECTS limit that Postgraduate, Masters and Doctoral Students can enroll in each semester is 37.5 ECTS. We advise Students to carefully read the NOVA IMS' Student Assessment and Development Regulation [in Portuguese].

    Can I change classes?

    It is possible to change classes through the NetP@ during the period established for enrollment, in each semester. Information about the online application period is available here, on the page of each program in NOVA IMS’ website.

    If you decide to change class after the defined period, you must contact the Academic Services through the Contact Form

    The possibility of changing the class is conditioned by the number of vacancies in the intended class (destination class), as well as, if there is a vacancy, you must confirm by consulting the stipulated class timetable for your program (available in NOVA IMS’ website, on your program page) whether or not there is an overlap of timetable with another course unit to which you are enrolled.

    In case of overlapping timetables between a mandatory course unit and an elective course unit (and if you are unable to choose another class of the desired optional, in another timetable that does not generate an overlap), you should choose another optional course unit that does not overlaps with the mandatory course unit.

    How can I change my attendance format?

    The choice of the attendance format (working hours/daytime or after working hours/evening) should be a factor subject to much consideration before applying for a particular program. After admission to a program with a certain frequency format (daytime or after-work), it is not possible to guarantee a change to another format (working hours/daytime or after working hours/evening) since a numerus clausus is defined for program/format. On the other hand, it is not possible to guarantee that there are vacancies available for enrollment in each mandatory course unit of the format to which the student intends to be changed, to the detriment of the format to which the candidate was effectively admitted.

    Can I enroll in elective course units from other programs?

    The elective course units to which you can enroll (via NetP@) are those listed in your program’s page, in NOVA IMs’ website, in the “Study Plan” menu. If the course unit you intend to enroll in as an option/elective does not appear in the list of available course units (and therefore will not appear in the class timetable), you will not be able to enroll. It will be an exclusive course unit of another Postgraduate/Master program.

  • Tuition Fees

    What is the tuition fee? What is the tuition fee of my program and when should I pay?

    The Tuition Fee is the fee associated with each program and is payable by each student from the moment the enrollment is completed.

    The tuition fees to be paid for each program, the payment deadlines and discounts are available in NOVA IMS’ website, on the page of each program, under the menu “Admissions and Fees”.

    After registering and enrolling, you will have access to information on values and deadlines for payment of tuition fees in your NetP@ profile, in the menu “Financial Situation” / “Payments”. There you can select each item to pay and generate ATM references for payment.

    IIt is not possible to change payment deadlines or amounts through NetP@. Any request for change (such as, for example, changing the method of payment of installments to full payment or applying discounts) must be made through the Academic Services’ Contact Form.

    In case of non-compliance with the defined deadlines, you may request a separate payment plan through the Academic Services’ Contact Form.

    What are the methods of payment of the tuition fee?

    The tuition fee can be paid by:

    • By ATM reference, which you can generate in NetP@ in the “Financial Situation” / “Payments” tab;

  • Accreditation Process

    I was previously a university student. Can I transfer credits to NOVA IMS?

    Yes, as long as the external course unit is from the same degree as the course unit you intend to credit, i.e., only course units from a master’s degree Program can be credited to a master’s degree Program. It’s not possible to transfer credits from a bachelor’s degree to a master’s degree Program. Accreditation requests must be made to the Academic Services, through the Contact Form, by submitting the following documents:

    • Certificate of Attendance (or Completion) in previous school/institution;
    • Syllabus, validated by the previous school/institution, of the course unit you intend to transfer;
    • Proper request form, provided by the Academic Services.

    Since NOVA IMS abides by the emolument table defined by Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, each request will have a different calculated fee, depending on the program and number of ECTS. Accreditations are not automatically granted by making the request and paying the fee. The request is forwarded to the Accreditation Commission and to the Scientific Council and can either be accepted or declined based on their evaluation.

FAQ

Pre-application

  • Who can apply for Erasmus study grants?

    Nationals of a country participating in the Erasmus+ Program, or nationals of other countries, enrolled in degree-conferring courses (Bachelor's; Master's; Doctorate) in schools or higher education institutions of a participating country, under the conditions established by each of the participating countries, according to the nature of the program.

    • The undergraduate students, in the date of the application must have approved a minimum of 60 ECTS.
    • The student (master or bachelor student) cannot have failed any curricular units of the first year at the end of the previous semester to mobility.

    Undergraduate students usually have their mobility window in the second semester of the third year, a semester in which they only have optional curricular units. Mobility windows give students the assurance that participating in mobility will not cause them to skip a semester or result in an increased level of workload, and ensure that their credits will be recognized at their home university.

  • Who can apply for Erasmus traineeships grants?

    Nationals of a country participating in the Erasmus+ Program, or nationals of other countries, enrolled in regular courses in schools or higher education institutions of a participating country, or recent graduates selected in the previous academic year (when they were still enrolled), under the conditions established by each of the participating countries, according to the nature of the program.

    • Undergraduate students must be enrolled in the 3rd year, cannot have failed any curricular units of the first year, at the end of the previous semester to mobility, and may only do their internship mobility in the last semester.
    • Master's students should perform internship of mobility after the curricular part of the course.
  • How long can I stay in mobility?

    Mobility minimum duration is 2 months and the maximum is 12 months.

  • I have been an Erasmus student before. Can I apply again?

    Yes, you can. Throughout your academic career, you can benefit from the 12 months period of mobility for each cycle of studies.

    • Students who have benefit before from NOVA IMS' Erasmus grant lose priority in the allocation of grants in relation to other students.
  • Can I apply for a university vacancy in a field of study that is not included in the agreement?

    No, you can only apply for vacancies in the study areas indicated in the agreements.

  • Before pre-applying online, what do I have to do?

    1. Check the list of Erasmus interinstitutional agreements to verify which agreements are suitable for your course and for which cycle of studies;
    2. Refer to the webpage of the Host University (UA) in which you intend to perform the mobility, in order to see if there are any subjects of interest, and what the prerequisites are (for example, if a language level is required).

Results and selection

  • How are placements assigned to Host Universities (HU)?

    Once the application process is completed, students are sorted according to the following criteria:

    1. Descending sorting according to the student's average at the end of the semester prior to the time of application;
    2. Descending sorting according to the number of ECTS already made, divided by total number of ECTS possible to be made by the end of the semester prior to the time of application;
    3. Ascending order according to the number of years of enrollment to reach that number of ECTS;

    In the event of a tie, the following criteria shall be used for the tiebreaker:
    Sorting in increasing order according to the date/time of submission of the application.

    During the selection process, the Erasmus Office will place each student in the preferred vacancy at the host university, according to the position occupied in the ranking list and the vacancies provided for in the agreements.

  • I was not placed in any of my choices. What options do I have?

    If the existing vacancies are not filled, there may be a second application period, which will be established by decision of the Erasmus+ Program Coordinator at NOVA IMS. If this happens, students will be duly informed of the existing vacancies and the application period, being able to choose up to five new options, in order of preference.

    Students not placed may also request to be placed on the waiting list for a vacancy in case of eventual withdrawal. If there are more colleagues interested in the same vacancy, their attribution will follow the logic of the ranking.

    The waiting list will remain valid, at the limit, until the moment when the nominations of students to the host universities begin.

    Any changes that may be requested will be analysed taking into account the selection criteria and the vacancies occupied and available.

  • I was selected for an option, but I am interested in another option that still has a vacancy. Can I change?

    Yes, if within the defined period and safeguarding that the priority of available places will be given to students who did not get any place.

    If there are more colleagues interested in the same vacancy, their attribution will follow the logic of the ranking.

  • I am placed in one of my options but I have a preference for another of them. If any colleague of mine, placed in the same, gives up can I keep the vacancy?

    Students who are not placed may request (within the defined period) to be placed on the waiting list for a vacancy in case of eventual withdrawal. If there are more colleagues interested in the same vacancy, their attribution will follow the logic of the ranking.

    The waiting list will remain valid, at the limit, until the appointment of students to the host universities begins.

    Any change that may be requested will be analyzed taking into account the selection criteria and the vacancies occupied and available.

  • I was selected for an agreement for the first semester. Can I change the mobility period for the second semester?

    You may, as long as you inform the Erasmus Office and this is possible according to the existing vacancies.

Grant

  • I have been selected for Erasmus. Will I automatically be awarded a scholarship?

    No. Although all students who pre-apply are eligible to receive an Erasmus grant, attribution will depend on the budget made available by the Rectory of NOVA for this purpose, and if the mobility is not solely distance learning.

  • For how long am I granted the scholarship?

    You will receive a scholarship for the actual length of stay, as stated in the Mobility Contract and according with Declaration of Stay. 

  • What is the amount of the scholarship to be awarded?

    It depends on the country you have been selected to. Please note that the grant amount awarded is only meant to cover the difference in standard of living between our country and the destination country.

  • I am a SAS scholarship holder. Will I be entitled to an Erasmus grant as well?

    Regardless of whether or not you are a SAS scholarship holder, the attribution of an Erasmus scholarship depends exclusively on seriation.

  • Can I apply for an Erasmus top-up grant?

    No application is required. Students who have both Erasmus and SAS grants are automatically eligible for the Erasmus Supplementary Grant. The SAS and the Rectory will examine these particular cases.

  • I was awarded an Erasmus scholarship. Do I receive the full amount in a single payment?

    No! The grant is paid in two instalments. Initially, a transfer of 70% of the total amount is made (1st instalment). After the return of the student, and upon submission of the Declaration of Stay, Transcript of Records (TR) and submission of the Final Report, the payment of the remaining 30% (2nd instalment) will be made. Considering that there was academic success.

  • Do I receive the grant before starting the mobility?

    Yes, if the procedure is completed no later than 60 days prior to the mobility.

    The payment of the 1st instalment (70% of the grant) is made after the signature of the Erasmus+ contract, which will only be issued by the Erasmus Office after the students have filled in and uploaded all necessary documentation through the Erasmus+ Platform. The International Mobilities Management Unit of The Rectory of NOVA will issue the payment order, once the Vice-Rector signs the referred contract.

  • If I do not succeed at the Host University, do I have to return the first instalment of the grant?

    Yes. To not be obliged to return the 1st instalment of the grant and to receive the 2nd instalment, you must succeed in at least one course that is included in the study plan (Learning Agreement - Before the Mobility) or in the Changes (Learning Agreement - During the Mobility), previously approved.

  • If I ask for an extension, will I receive a scholarship for the additional time?

    The requests for extension of the study period do not guarantee a complementary grant, i.e. it will only be paid if there is an allocated surplus.

  • I was not awarded a Erasmus Grant. Can I go on mobility?

    Yes. The mobility is carried out without the attribution of funding (“zero-grant”).

    In case of withdrawals, available budget and position in the ranking, students may be able to benefit from an Erasmus grant.

Formalization of the application at the Host University

  • What are the deadlines for formalizing the application?

    After the end of the Erasmus pre-applications, the Erasmus Office will send to the Host Universities (UA), the nomination of the students who were selected.

    Students must formalize their application in accordance with the instructions they will receive from the UA, by email or which are mentioned on the UA website. They must comply with the deadline and procedures indicated to them.

    You should carefully read the Fact-Sheets available for each Host University.

  • After formalizing the application, can I withdraw it?

    If you withdraw your application, you must submit a declaration of withdrawal by email stating the reasons for your withdrawal and attaching a supporting document, if applicable.

  • What documents do I need to fill in to formalize the application?

    The documents that the UA asks you to complete.

    However, to formalize the application with the Erasmus Office, it is necessary:

    • Send a PDF copy of the Learning Agreement (LA) created on the Online Learning Agreement (OLA) Platform, which is the document containing the curricular units that the student intends to take at the UA (table A) and the accreditation of skills and knowledge to which you will be entitled to NOVA IMS when you return (Table B), after being signed by all involved;
    • School calendar of the Host University (which you can request from the Erasmus Office of the Partner University or print from its website);
    • Photocopy of Power of Attorney duly signed (advisable, but not mandatory);
    • Term of Responsibility duly signed;
    • A copy of your European Health Insurance Card valid for the entire period of mobility.

    Attention:

    • Check deadlines for sending / submitting documents with the University to which you are applying;
    • Check the documents that are required (they may be different from those requested by NOVA IMS);
    • Proof of English level (B2) / (mobility studies) - If you do not have (TOEFL; IELTS; or similar), you may request proof from NOVA IMS' Academic Services.
  • I have to fill in the code of the study area and the Host University in the LA. Where can I find them?

    In the list of countries/Interinstitutional Agreements on NOVA IMS' website - Education/Mobility Programs – Erasmus - Erasmus Outgoing.

  • What start and end dates of the mobility do I fill in in the LA?

    The start date must correspond to the 1st day of classes or welcome session (if applicable), and the mobility end date must correspond to the last day of the UA examination season.

  • How do I get the UA curricula?

    Please refer to the UA website or the UA International Relations Office.

  • Who should counsel and validate the course units to be included in the Learning Agreement?

    The courses chosen at the Host University (UA) have no correspondence with NOVA IMS courses. The chosen courses will be credited as elective courses or included in a Diploma Supplement (in the case of curricular units not subject to credit1).

    All courses to be included in the Learning Agreement to be carried out in mobility must be previously approved by the Director/Coordinator of the student's Course and by the Erasmus Coordinator.

    Attention

    • 1Courses without classification that may be translated into the Portuguese classification scale, referred to in article 15 of Decree-Law no. 42/2005 - numeric scale from 0 to 20 (e. g. "2 ECTS, NOT GRADED, PASS, taught in English") are not eligible for accreditation. This fact does not, however, prevent the student's Course Director/Coordinator and the Erasmus Coordinator from approving their inclusion in the Learning Agreement. It is the student's responsibility, wanting to take the curricular units, to pay attention to the classification/grading system and the possibility that they may not have academic recognition for the purpose of completing the Degree or counting for the final grade.
    • The maximum number of ECTS for language courses is 4 ECTS (in the overall degree); German or English language course (beginner, intermediate or advanced, 5 ECTS).
  • I have filled in and signed the LA. What should I do?

    You must send the LA to the Erasmus Office in order to verify if all fields are properly completed, before being signed by the Course and Erasmus Coordinators.

  • Is the documentation submitted at NOVA IMS enough to formalize the application at the UA?

    No. The documentation submitted to the Erasmus Office is for the mobility process at NOVA IMS.

    UAs have their own application documents and procedures. Therefore, students should browse the Erasmus information on the UA website or, proceed accordingly, if they receive an email from the UA with instructions.

  • I have already formalized the application at NOVA IMS. What should I do next?

    All students who have formalized their application will receive an email requiring them to fill in their personal and mobility data in the UNL Rectory' Erasmus+ Platform. Supporting bank document of NIB, IBAN and SWIFT (with the student's name printed on it) must also be uploaded in the platform.

  • Is it enough to be selected by NOVA IMS to be able to perform the mobility?

    No. Although students are selected by NOVA IMS and formalize the Erasmus application (by submitting the documentation requested by NOVA IMS and the UA), the mobility will only be assured when the UA approves the application and informs the student that he has been accepted.

  • When does the UA inform accepted students?

    It depends on whether the student has carried out all the procedures requested by the UA and how long each UA requires to analyse the applications. The acceptance is formally communicated by the UA by sending the Letter of Acceptance and the LA, signed by the legal representative of the UA.

  • Once I have received Letter of Acceptance and the Learning Agreement signed by the UA, is there anything I should do next?

    Yes. You should immediately send the documents to the Erasmus Office, as the LA signed by the UA will have to be uploaded on UNL Rectory's Erasmus+ Platform.

  • Who takes care of the trip? Do I need a visa?

    • To travel outside Portugal, make sure you have a valid identification document, Identity Card (or Citizen Card) or Passport, as this document may be required to prove your identity.
    • It should be the student who schedules the trip in time, in order to be at the Host University when the academic activities begin. It is advisable that, whenever possible, tickets be purchased with the possibility of refund or cancellation without associated cost. Furthermore, we advise you to purchase the trip only after formal and official acceptance of the application submitted to the Host University has been received.

     

    • If you have the nationality of an EU country, the only condition for living in another EU country for up to three months is to hold a valid citizen card/identity card or passport. For stays longer than three months, you must register as a resident in the country where you are studying.
    • If you are going to travel to a country outside the European Union and outside the countries that have agreements within the Schengen Area, you must have in your possession not only the Passport but also the respective Study Visa. The visa is requested in Portugal, at the consulate of the country of destination, before the trip (it is necessary to apply for the visa about 4-6 weeks before traveling and there will be a cost). We advise you to take care of the necessary procedures in advance.

     

    • Participants in the Erasmus+ Program from countries outside the EU need a long-stay visa or a residence permit issued by the country of destination.
    • If participants hold a residence permit or a long-stay visa issued by a country in the Schengen area, they may move within the Schengen area for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. For stays longer than three months, you must register as a resident in the country where you are studying.
  • Do I need insurance?

    The ERASMUS+ Program - Student Mobility does not have any type of associated insurance.

    It is mandatory to hold the European Health Insurance Card (http://www4.seg-social.pt/pedido-cartao-europeu-seguro-doenca), which allows a person insured or covered by a social protection scheme to one of the 27 Member States of the European Union(1), Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, obtain medical assistance from public health providers during your temporary stay in any of the States mentioned.

    NOVA IMS students, however, benefit from the Personal Accident Insurance, contracted at the beginning of the academic year when enrolling.

    It is important to clarify that this policy only covers personal accidents, excluding any coverage for illness (https://www.novaims.unl.pt/pt/ensino/alunos/seguros-de-acidentes-pessoais/).

    The European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) is not the alternative to travel insurance. If you wish, you can subscribe to a Health Insurance Policy and other coverage abroad, which fully covers your stay abroad.

    Non-EU citizens who do not hold an EHIC are required to present to NOVA IMS their travel insurance which is normally required for non-EU residents when applying for a visa.

    Note: For some Partner Universities it’s mandatory to subscribe a Health Insurance.

  • How can I find accommodation?

    Through the UA International Relations Office.

Mobility Contract

  • If I am already in mobility, who shall sign my mobility contract?

    The Erasmus contract is sent by the Erasmus Office to the institutional email of the student who will sign it and return it, also by email. Therefore, the student does not have to go to the Erasmus Office to sign the contract.

    Students should not start mobility without having signed the Contract.

    Without the signed contract, the Rectory will not pay the 1st instalment of the Erasmus grant.

     

  • Do I have to submit any documents so that the Erasmus Office may draw up the mobility contract?

    In addition to filling in the data in the UNL Rectory's Erasmus+ Platform, it is also necessary to have sent the Learning Agreement signed by the UA to the Erasmus Office.

Before starting the mobility period

  • Before leaving on mobility will I have to do anything else?

    You must renew your registration at NOVA IMS, as you would if not in mobility;
    You must pay the tuition fees at NOVA IMS;
    You must enrol in course units at NOVA IMS, as you would if not in Erasmus;
    You must have signed the mobility contract.

During the mobility period

  • Can the Host University charge tuition fees?

    No. Erasmus students are exempt from paying UA tuition fees, as these are charged at the home university. The UA may charge some additional fees, such as insurance, student card and student association fee.

  • When I get to the UA, what should I do?

    You should send the following to NOVA IMS' Erasmus Office:

    • your proof of arrival;
    • a copy of the Learning Agreement, duly signed by the UA, if not sent before the beginning of the mobility.
  • If during the mobility there are changes to the previously laid out Learning Agreement (for example, no. of ECTS or different course units,), what should I do?

    You must complete a document called “Learning Agreement - During the Mobility”, which we traditionally call Changes, in the OLA.

Studying in Poland was a unique academic and cultural experience. The university is committed to dynamic and collaborative teaching, which led me to meet people from all over Europe. I traveled around the country and its surroundings, and made friendships that last to this day. I recommend the Erasmus program to all students!

Lithuania captivates through the contrast with what is familiar to us, from landscapes, customs, gastronomy, to language. Vilnius University offers a wide range of disciplines and has allowed me to shape my knowledge according to my future ambitions. In Vilnius, entertainment is abundant – local festivals and markets are the trademark of this city, as well as traditions that, although initially may seem unusual, immerse us in the culture of the country.

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 still allowed time to have fun and enjoy Portugal. I am very pleased with my experience, and I have learned a lot.

With the completion of Secondary Education, there are inevitable and important decisions that affect the fulfillment of our dreams and objectives in the professional scope. After some research, I found NOVA IMS at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa, where all the necessary conditions for the success of my entry into the job market were gathered, a college with enormous business prestige with a course that could combine two areas: Management and technologies. Today, I am sure I could not have made the best choice! The strong practical component, culture of excellence, innovation and requirement have prepared me for the highly competitive professional world, equipping me with all the skills I need to succeed. There is a sentence from Aristotles that for me has always represented NOVA IMS, "We are what we repeatedly do, excellence is therefore not an act, but a habit".

During my undergraduate degree course, I managed to acquire skills that fit current business requirements, because, in addition to the excellence that NOVA IMS accustomed and instilled in us, we also developed strong technical and soft skills that place us in an excellent market position. Studying at NOVA IMS is to represent a faculty at the forefront of technological development, which challenges itself every day to provide its students with excellent teaching, focused on research and innovation. In addition to the academic component, the environment we live in is of great proximity between colleagues and teachers, so it is a familiar environment, which at the moment remains part of my daily life as I am attending the Master Degree Program in Information Management with a specialization in Marketing Intelligence.

Alumni 2023

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.

Strategic Pillars image

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.

This event stands out in the national scene by bringing together renowned experts, both national and international, industry leaders, and decision-makers to explore the challenges and opportunities of the digital era, promoting value creation through data.
