The New Academic Regulation of the UC (RAUC) consists of 285 articles and it aims to coordinate logically the different norms associated with degree-awarding courses at the UC, and, currently, norms associated with non-degree courses or lifelong training courses, by adding a greater coherence and flexibility concerning the procedures.
This document gathers all the main academic regulations, concerning the management and workings of the degree-awarding cycles of studies at the University of Coimbra (UC), the lifelong training courses and the academic pathway of the students, by including answers to the challenges of an increasing number of international students.
Due to its coverage and impact on the activities of the academic area, we aggregate on this webpage the changes that are being provided continuously and draw a special attention to them.
