Housing services
Finding accommodation / housing is one of the biggest concerns students face upon arrival on a new city or foreign country. For this reason, IADE presents you several accommodation partnerships with renowned student residences and apartment booking platforms (shared apartments with other students) or rooms in "family houses".
Campus life
Lisbon is a quite friendly city. We are mainly known for our gastronomy and hospitality, but we have much for to offer for international students.
Live in Lisbon is having the chance to live in a dynamic and young city where the old buildings live in harmony with modernity.
The land of “fado” (traditional singing style) is growing and defining new concepts. Many fields are being developed and we are, definitely, breaking borders to show all the nice things we have in our city, and country.

2/5
Challenges of IADE
The proposed projects were intriguing and attainable with hard work, but the professors and the university as a whole lacked organization. The secretariat provided little to no assistance on most matters, and professors frequently changed dates and deadlines at the last minute.
