Hello Dario,dariobi Escreveu:Hi,
I have a question regarding the BPD application. I have obtained my phd in a foreigner university and according to what is written I need a Portuguese institution to recognize my degree (see page 3, third point before the last one of http://www.fct.pt/apoios/bolsas/concurs ... es2015.pdf). However, also given my poor understanding of Portuguese, it is not described any procedure on how to do it.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Obrigado,
Dario
I got this information from one of the research institutes I work in:
According to the 2015 FCT Guidelines, it is mandatory to have all foreign degrees recognized by the Portuguese official authorities and indicating these 2 informations:
- Recognition of the degree;
- Equivalence of the final grade.
The Direção Geral do Ensino Superior - DGES and the University of Lisbon are the easiest options to get it. You can find the contacts below:
A) DGES – Direção Geral do Ensino Superior:
E-platform (NARIC Be.Com): https://www.dges.mec.pt/suporte/

These options are in Lisbon, so if you are living in other city maybe you can look for the Direção Regional do Ensino Superior near you but I don't know if they also certificate degrees. If you need the attachment from option B (University of Lisbon – Reitoria) I can send you by private msg.
Good luck,
Joana
