Mobility and International Cooperation

Technology Assessment is present in a wide spectrum of companies in very different sectors of industry and services. This Doctorate (PhD) course is an alternative and advanced training scheme of large potential for technicians that are related with processes of technological choice or technological investments. But it provides anyway a high level of scientific and technological knowledge in a academic framework.

Recognition at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil)

The Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro) from Brazil recognised our PhD title on Technology Assessment hold by Dr. Ana Clara Cândido. This is an important new once other Brazilian students of the PhD programme of Technology Assessment can have automatically that recognition in their home-country.

First of all, congratulations to Dr. Ana C. Cândido for this achievement!
