FCT NOVA

The Faculty of Sciences and Technology (FCT NOVA), of Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, is one of the most prestigious Portuguese engineering and science public schools, being engaged in an extensive research activity developed in 16 research centres. FCT NOVA is also associated with foreign universities, such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), the Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and the University of Texas at Austin (UTAustin), in some of its advanced study programs, pioneers nationwide.

FCT NOVA has a broad expertise in cutting-edge R&D&I due to its multidisciplinary nature and strong experience in fundamental and applied research areas. It counts with internationally recognized professionals (awarded with ERC grants and merit prizes) and boosts the entrepreneurial drive of their students and graduates, which has led to the creation of many successful spin-offs that transfer knowledge to the market and help to create added value and social impact.

LAQV (Associated Lab. for Green Chemistry – Clean Technologies and Processes) and MARE (Marine and Environmental Science Centre) research centres participate in the KET4F-Gas project. LAQV is an internationally recognised research Centre in the thematic area of Green Chemistry, focused on the development of sustainable chemistry. The objective of MARE is to seek excellence in the study of aquatic ecosystems and disseminate knowledge to support policies for sustainable development.
