The University of Évora was founded in 1559 and for two centuries it distinguished itself for its role in the education of the elites and the missionaries of the Kingdom. Restored as a public University in 1973, it has aimed at meeting the new requirements of society.
It is specially oriented toward the education of human resources who want to achieve a higher position by merit and good service to the community.

We have a strong relationship with businesses and industries, always trying that the produced knowledge does not become confined to our historical walls.
