Maastricht University

Maastricht University

Universidade Católica Portuguesa (UCP) adapted the international Medicine curriculum of the Maastricht University (MU) to the Portuguese reality, including the teaching, learning and evaluation methods.

MU is a pioneer in the field of medical education, having developed student-centred teaching methods organized around problem-solving, and having demonstrated, through research in education, that these methods produce professionals with equal knowledge, but with more skills and a greater capacity for learning throughout their professional life.
