Introduction
The main objective of the PhD program in Engineering is to train highly qualified technicians and researchers, particularly specialized in Mechatronics or in Energy, who are able to carry out independent research or experimental work, in the business environment, as well as within the university context.
This PhD program also aims to provide the holders of a university degree, namely MSc students, to access to highly specialized training in Engineering, focused on scientific research, technological development and innovation.
Taking into consideration the specialization areas of this PhD program, the natural candidates are the graduate students with master's degrees in mechatronics, energy and environment or solar energy engineering, among others. This program is organized to provide an easy integration of the graduates with master's degrees from the University of Évora, or other Universities or Polytechnic institutes, in related scientific areas.
