Universidade Católica Portuguesa in cooperation with Transform4Europe (T4EU), has just launched a new Programme for Early-Career Researchers, which will take place both online and in person in Lisbon, Portugal, from November 17th to 21th, 2025.
Over the course of five days of intensive training, participants will engage in a wide range of seminars, masterclasses, and practical activities led by experts from Católica and the T4EU alliance.
A plataforma “First-time Researcher Programme” is a hybrid training initiative designed to integrate transferable skills, specialized knowledge, and career development opportunities.
Specifically tailored for PhD students, this programme will draw on the expertise of the 10 member universities and will be aligned with T4EU’s mission to promote excellence, inclusion, and mobility across various scientific fields.
