Concluded in 2009, this modern campus is located in the council of Oeiras and is integrated into the Science and Technology Parks, known as Taguspark, one of the most important technological parks across the country, mainly in the area of information and communication technologies.
The Taguspark campus is linked to its Alameda counterpart through its own transport system stopping in several points of Lisbon. A university residence is expected to be built in the near future.
The important natural and environmental heritage of the region and the fact that it is close to the sea provide the campus students with an extraordinarily rich living experience.
