fulfilling individual needs associated with accommodation, food, scholarships, and due to the fact that they promote healthy life habits through a Support Office for Sports Activities or as a result of the detailed attention given to personal needs in the psycho-pedagogical sphere, through technicians qualified to provide the necessary support. Due to the importance of these services for Higher Education students, we suggest a visit to the website to get to know all the support that IPBeja provides.https://www.ipbeja.pt/sas/Paginas/default.aspx

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTSIf the presence of international students provides a cosmopolitan atmosphere to the city of Beja, and an opportunity for all of the Institute’s students to get to know other cultures and realities, the international mobility of IPBeja students is a priority for this institution, which has dozens of international partnerships under different programmes for international student and professor mobility, particularly the well-known Erasmus programme, but also including mobility to Brazil through the Bartolomeu de Gusmão or Erasmus AlSud programme (internships in Companies across Europe), and other programmes that take students to destinations as far away as Macao. More recently, applications under International Student Status opened the possibility for having students from all over the world, for whom we have special conditions, which can be checked out on the websitehttps://www.ipbeja.pt/alunos/EstudInternacional/Paginas/default.aspx

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES- Agro-livestock and phytosanitary companies (planning, consultancy, technical assis-tance, field experimentation and sales activities);- Marketing and technical assistance companies in agricultural machinery and irrigation equipment;- Plant multiplication companies (nurseries);- Conventional and Organic agro-livestock explorations;- Project development offices- (design, evaluation and monitoring of projects);- State bodies, particularly those related to the areas of agriculture and the environment (planning and field investigation & demonstration activities);- Credit organizations (technical support to farmers and project development, implementation, evaluation and monitoring);- Educational institutions (professional agrarian teaching and graduation);- Processing and marketing in the conventional and organic agrifood sector;- Control and certification companies.

OBJECTIVES AND METHODOLOGIESThe objectives of the Agronomy course are to train technicians to meet the require-ments of the labour market.The Agronomist must always bear in mind that new cultural options and new technical paths go through the rational use of inputs. Furthermore, they should be framed in agro-ecological systems, in which the protection and preservation of the environment are the main objec-tives in order to contribute to agricultural sustainability. In other words, develop an economy that meets the needs of the present generation without compromising the potential future.They must have the ability to manage agricultural systems with high productivity, taking into account the protection of natural resources, maintaining the sustainability of the production system and ensuring food quality and safety.The agronomy students also have expertise in the commercial side and in the postharvest technology, so that they can effectively develop their business in a highly competitive market.

BACHELOR’S DEGREE IN ARTS AND MULTIMEDIA

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTSFor specific information about any Degree Programme, check out the international students’ website at https://www.ipbeja.pt/en/StudentsLifeServices/interstudent

CAREER OPPORTUNITIESMultimedia Artist; Plastic Artist; 2/3D Animator; Exhibition Curator Graphic Designer; Multimedia Specialist; Photographer; Illustrator; Infographic/ Computer Graphics Op-erator Graphic Designers; Animation Producer; Audiovisual Technician; Museology Technician; Exhibition Mounting Technician; Education Services Technician; Prepress Technician; Video Technician; Web Designer.

OBJECTIVES AND METHODOLOGIESBecause of the diversity of activities in Arts and Multimedia that an artist or creator could work with, we opted for a generalist study plan in the field of fine arts, with a profile-oriented specialty in Multimedia.In professional terms, this profile corresponds to the Multimedia Artist that develops his or her activities in the fields of artistic creation, artistic media marketing and pub-lishing, public art, urban art, theatre, television and cultural action. Included in the Arts/Multimedia are: artistic production, research, management, administration and coordi-nation in multidisciplinary teams, in technological or artistic studies; participation in the implementation of cultural activities; collaboration in museums and artistic heritage related activities.With regard to the academic training goals for this job profile, eminently practical train-ing of graduates and experimentation in this area must be based on the theoretical knowledge available about the mechanics of artistic thinking and its complexity and semantics. This complexity can be approached from different but complementary theo-retical perspectives: the aspects of syntax (related to the analysis of form, use of ma-terials, techniques, procedures and means of expression) and the pragmatic aspects (related to the study of the contexts, functions, conventions, cultural, sociological, cog-nitive and emotional aspects of aesthetic experience).

BACHELOR’S DEGREE INTOURISM

CAREER OPPORTUNITIESConsulting and management of cultural and natural heritage;Setting up and management of tourism businesses;Event / tourist activity planning, organisation and management;Design and management of tourist products;Several functions in public sector organisations.The Degree’s assessment reports attest a high employment rate of ESTIG’s Tourism graduates.

OBJECTIVES AND METHODOLOGIESThe Tourism Degree is based in ESTIG – IPBeja’s Technology and Management School. It is a well-established degree, as it has been running for 20 years now. During this period, several curricular changes were made to adapt it to broader social, economic and also cultural/aca-demic changes, and to the evolution of Portuguese tourism. In 2006/2007 the degree was adapted to the Bologna process. Its core subject area is ‘Tourism and Leisure’. It has a total of 180 credits and it is organised in five semesters and two trimesters. The Degree’s curriculum provides a fairly broad education, although its profile is oriented to the area of tourist prod-ucts and activities. Moreover, several course units focus on the setting up of a business. The Tourism Degree also puts a premium on practical and applied knowledge: this goal is pursued in several course units, such as Professional Practice and Events and Protocol, and through the organisation of multiple field/study trips, participation in and organisation of seminars, conferences and other events, hosted either by IPBeja or by external public or private-sector organisations, contact with tourism-related IT software and ‘enterprise-classes’ – classes with the participation of a wide range of entrepreneurs or public sector’s senior staff.The internship/work placement is another important component of ESTIG’s Tourism Degree and it has the main goal of establishing an effective relationship with public bodies and private sector businesses related to the tourism sector, thus enabling students to apply and further the knowledge and skills they acquired throughout the degree.In 2013, the Tourism Degree was fully accredited for a 6-year period by A3ES, the National Agency for Assessment and Accreditation of Higher Education.
