Diploma
The diploma is a document certifying the award of an academic degree or the conclusion of a specialisation course (conclusion of the master’s degree teaching component).
You can request the Certificate of Degree Registration and/or the Course Certificate, both of which have the same certifying value, the difference between them is their visual appearance and the respective fee.
The Certificate of Degree Registration is a printed document in A4 format, issued in Portuguese and English within a maximum of 10 working days.
The Course Certificate is a more formal document (but of equal value to the Certificate of Degree), printed on A3 size paper and delivered in a metal box (commonly known as a “straw”), issued within 3 months.
You can request your Diploma at any time, immediately after you have reported your course as completed in Inforestudante. On this date your fees payment must be properly regularised.
The Certificate of Degree Registration and/or Course Certificate are requested on the Inforestudante platform at Academic Desk – Documents – Add.
Payment of these documents is made using the ATM references available at Inforestudante – Academic Desk – Fees Payment. Information about the creation of MB references is sent via notification.
Documents are issued upon confirmation of payment of the amount stipulated in the IPC fees table.
A notification of the documents being issued and made available is sent via Inforestudante.
