Finding a university with a high employability rate remains one of our students' main concerns.

Among the public universities, those with more courses without unemployment are the University of
Lisbon, which includes the Instituto Superior Técnico, with courses in Engineering and Architecture. In the
Faculty   of   Sciences,   of   the   University   of   Lisbon,   the   mathematics        courses         integrated          the
zero-unemployment ranking. And, of course, the integrated Masters in Medicine.

The Universidade Católica Portuguesa, a private institution, offers courses with full employment, and is
sought after by many of our students, not only in the field of Business Administration and Management
(International and National degrees), but also in Law and Social Communication.

The ambition to study abroad has also always been an option for our students. However, the quality of our
further education establishments together with the instability caused by the pandemic, meant that some
chose to postpone this project. Nevertheless, some students are now studying in the United Kingdom,
at the University of the Arts; Imperial College; Lancaster University; and at Erasmus Universiteit
Rotterdam, Netherlands.

In the International Curriculum, students who completed the International Baccalaureate Diploma
Program are also to be congratulated for their extraordinary determination and remarkable performance
in an atypical year, which had an enormous impact on their IB course.

With an average of results which is 2 points above the world average (32 points), and a maximum
score of 43 points (out of 45), they exceeded their expectations.

The result of this effort is also seen in their entries into Higher Education, at Universities located in several
different countries, according to each student’s options.

71% of our IB students gained entry into universities abroad, including the United Kingdom: University
of Bristol, King's College London, Lancaster University, University of Leicester, Coventry University London
and University of the Arts London; in France: Sciences Po, Paris, Neoma Business School; in Italy, John
Cabot University; in the Netherlands, Erasmus University Rotterdam, TU Eindhoven, University College
Roosevelt; in Spain, Harbour Space University. Barcelona; in the United States of America, California
Baptist University; and in Canada, York University.
