Testimonials

Being a researcher in a top quality Centre as CITAD and PhD student at the Lusíada University is a great challenge and a huge opportunity to enhance my personal, professional and academic development, as well as the service to the community in the form of knowledge and technology.

Eng. Carlos Oliveira AugustoPh.D Student (Architecture)

As Professor research has always been part of my academic life. The research atmosphere and opportunities arise naturally linked to the innovative and creative spirit of a multidisciplinary team that works in complete harmony, encouraging research and investigation in the CITAD research center. Much is due both to the team of teachers and researchers, but also to the nature and insight that the coordinator of the center has had to date, investing in opportunities and disseminating knowledge. The technological development and globalization, are a constant assumption on multidisciplinarity of knowledge produced in this Center. For all this, the team spirit and the support I've always had, make me feel at home, and with an interest in continuing.

CITAD is an inspiring international research center that I joined two year ago. The work with ambitious and active researchers is a daily base of this institution. I was under great impression how innovative and interesting projects are made in the center. Working in a CITAD team is an amazing, scientific journey which learn a lot and bring satisfaction.
