Policy for Internationalisation
The University of Minho has a strong policy for internationalisation, which is reflected in its main lines of action - education, research and innovation, and interaction with the society.
Regarding education, through its interaction with more than 80 countries and 400 universities around the world, UMinho is very active in the recruitment of international students, in mobility programs, in the establishment of degrees in association, and in distance learning, vectors that allow for the internationalisation of its educational offer.
Finally, on the dimension of interaction with the society, there are several lines of action along which the UMinho goes international, namely practices of valorization of knowledge, or sports and cultural activities that are projected in the international context.
As a reflection of its internationalisation policy, the University of Minho belongs to several international networks of cooperation, such as, among others:
CRUSOE – Council of Rectors of the Universities of South-western Europe
