Comparative Politics

7 “The ICS-ULisboa encourages research and academic collaboration from the beginning of the doctoral programme, and students are treated as researchers. This encouragement contributes to students having a solid CV and good career prospects at the end of their doctoral studies, both nationally and internationally.” Susana Coroado Political scientist and researcher at Dublin City University, Ireland Testimonials “The PhD in Comparative Politics at ICS-ULisboa is defined by open doors and an international horizon. It offers a unique experience in Portugal: proximity, rigour, and networking. From the first year, doctoral students benefit from easy and regular access to researchers, integration into networks and collaborative projects, and close contact with renowned specialists in research groups. Added to this is support in preparing applications for doctoral scholarships, funding for participation in conferences, and incentives for stays at foreign institutions. These conditions accelerate learning, expand networks, and enhance our results.” Hugo Ferrinho Lopes Invited Assistant Professor at Iscte and EEG-UMinho “The possibility of contact with important scientific projects, combined with excellent academic guidance, makes ICS-ULisboa the ideal environment for those who wish to conduct cutting-edge research in the field of Political Science in Portugal. Access to databases, studies, and innovative methods offered by the Institute is an added value in the preparation of the thesis.” Gustavo Maciel Invited Assistant Professor at UBI “I had the pleasure of spending six months at ICS as a visiting researcher, where I conducted part of the fieldwork for my PhD. During that period, I had the opportunity to attend lectures from the PhD in Comparative Politics, build meaningful connections with fellow PhD candidates, participate in the insightful seminars organised by ICS, and exchange ideas with brilliant scholars working at the Institute. It was an engaging experience that greatly contributed to the development of my research, as well as to my personal growth.” Niccolò Aimo Visiting Researcher, doctoral candidate in Urban and Regional Development at Politecnico di Torino
