On January 13th, the José Marques dos Santos Auditorium will host the celebrations of FEUP’s Day 2026, with a presentation by the journalist Carla Ascenção and a lecture entitled “Dar ao Pedal” by Jorge Sequeira.
With the motto “A day for everyone, by everyone” the programme includes a wide range of activities open to the internal and external community, with the aim of strengthening the unity of the academic community and celebrating the achievements that consolidate the role of the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto as a national and international reference.
The afternoon will once again be dedicated to honouring the members of the community who have stood out the most over the last year. For the second consecutive year, a DEI lecturer has been awarded the Teaching Excellence Award, something that deserves to be highlighted.
