Regresso presencial da EXPO FCT NOVA atrai mais de 5000 estudantes do secundário

After a two-year hiatus imposed by the pandemic, the School reopened its doors on a gorgeous sunny day to receive secondary school students from various parts of the country. From Porto to Faro, there were more than 5,000 students who came to the Caparica Campus.

Visitors enjoyed access to more than 160 activities, prepared by professors and researchers from all Departments and by members of the Students' Association and the various Nuclei, which allowed them to have contact with the numerous areas of study of the NOVA School of Science and Technology (FCT NOVA).

“I'm in arts, and I'm considering architecture or restoration just to come to this School,” confesses Tiago, a student at Escola Secundária de Palmela.

The approximately 300 volunteers from FCT NOVA served as guides and introduced the school to our visitors, helping to clear up the doubts that arise at these crucial ages for the path we are tracing.

"It's always worthy to see other areas and discern if we like it or not. It's good to have an overview, and EXPO is a great space to get to know the areas of science and engineering better," explain Vera and Andreia, students at the Bocage Secondary School.

The initiative, promoted since 2007, aims to encourage the youngest to follow the areas of science and engineering, introducing our School's educational offer known in a joyous and fun way. With the motto “See to pick”, EXPO FCT NOVA is the largest exhibition of activities in the areas of science and engineering in the country and aims to provide pre-university students with an opportunity to better clarify their choices for the continuation of studies.
