The Faculty of Health Sciences follows the mission of the Fernando Pessoa University and provides high-quality training in the health field, considering scientific research and innovation as the basis for the comprehensive education of its students, using an innovative pedagogical methodology that transforms knowledge into skills.

The teaching provided in its courses integrates the development and critical thinking of its students, prioritizing autonomous thought. The applied pedagogical methodology allows for the training of highly qualified professionals in the health field, prepared for the challenges of the global job market and the opportunities of a constantly evolving market, defining themselves as future professionals who contribute to the production of knowledge and sustainable development.

The autonomy of the teaching provided at the faculty, with its own spaces for internships, practical laboratory and clinical teaching, delivered in its Teaching Clinics and at the Fernando Pessoa Teaching Hospital, allows students to acquire training in a real-world context and to develop solid skills.

Throughout their training, our students are taught the principles of interdisciplinarity and a solid ethical, cultural, and civic education, respecting political and religious diversity as well as gender equality.

Internationalization and the creation of a campus where students of all nationalities are integrated provide a multicultural environment where the exchange of ideas and experiences contributes to an even more complete and globalized education.

Our Faculty is proud to have a highly qualified teaching staff, composed of experienced, dedicated and committed professionals, not only to the transmission of knowledge, but also to...
personal and professional development of our students.

Welcome to the Faculty of Health Sciences at Fernando Pessoa University, where integrated training prepares future healthcare professionals, fostering strong personal development in character and conduct, and building a high-quality and innovative academic path.
