Dual-degree Ph.D. Programs

ICTI offers, supported by the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), some of the top Ph.D. programs in information and communication technologies. Upon program completion, students receive a degree from Carnegie Mellon and the partner university in Portugal. With dual-international graduate credentials, graduates are in an excellent position to build their careers.

Although program instruction is based both in Portugal and at Carnegie Mellon, all instruction is in English – it is not mandatory for students to speak Portuguese.

Scholarships and fellowships are available on a competitive basis for many of the programs. Find out more information in the Admission and application process (pdf file).
