The Instituto Superior de Agronomia (ISA) is an engineering school of the University of Lisbon, presently the largest university in Portugal with more than 45000 enrolled students. We offer a variety of degrees from 3-years first degrees to Master and PhD degrees, but also intensive courses for professionals and even workshops for the general public.
ISA is located in Tapada da Ajuda, a green area with about one hundred hectares with several buildings lodging laboratories and classrooms, a computer centre, the library, a herbarium, the students’ association (AEISA), the canteen and several working and leisure areas. Inside the Tapada are also several sport facilities and the Exhibition Pavilion, unique in the Iberian Peninsula.
We are proud of our position as one of the top research faculties in the country, as a result of the work carried out by our professors, researchers, students and technicians, in collaboration with other national and international research organizations, and in partnerships with the industry and farmers’ associations.
