January Applications
Applications for international mobility – January 2 to 16 (14h), 2026.
The January application period is aimed at students already enrolled in the 2nd Cycle (Master’s Degree) who intend to undertake their mobility for studies in the 1st semester or for the entire academic year 2026/2027.
With the end of integrated master’s programmes, Técnico Lisboa reorganised its international mobility framework. All courses – except Architecture, which remained as an Integrated Master – moved to an application system with calls in September, for mobility in the 2nd semester of the same academic year, or in January, for mobility in the following academic year.
With this transition phase now concluded, the Architecture programme is returning to its previous model, once again allowing students to apply in their third year to undertake mobility as early as the first semester of the fourth year.
Important Documentation
Important Considerations
Before applying, it is important to read the Important Documents above and confirm eligibility for this application period:
- Students enrolled in the 2nd study cycle (Masters);
- Minimum average of 12,50 points, weighted by the number of UCs completed until the end of the application period.
The selection process for mobility will be based on the following criteria, in order of priority:
- Highest average of all course units already completed, weighted by ECTS and calculated to hundredths;
- Highest number of ECTS credits and course units already completed;
- A smaller ratio between the number of annual enrolments and the number of ECTS credits already completed.
It is the student’s responsibility to prepare the study plan according to the host university’s offer (with a minimum of 30 ECTS in the case of mobility within Europe); it is also the student’s responsibility to research on the host university’s website regarding the course units available, the language in which they are taught, the possible need for a specific language certificate and the university’s accommodation offer.
Only one application per student will be considered and validated, so it is essential to seal the application when you are sure everything conforms. This application, however, may allow the student to choose several options in order of preference, selecting up to 10 schools (maximum). Students must select only the course to which they belong in all the options they place in the application, under penalty of annulment of their application if they fail to do so.
The data collected within the application for an international study mobility programme will be processed exclusively for this purpose.
The existing vacancies are limited to the offer available at the moment, and there is no possibility of opening additional vacancies.
