Celebration of the International Student Meeting's 6th edition

Last friday, October 16th, Universidade Católica Portuguesa held the 6th edition of UCP’s International Student Meeting. This event, meant for the international students studying in one the university’s four campi – Lisboa, Braga, Porto and Viseu – took on a digital form this year.

The programme included a tour of the 4 campi through the presentation of short videos, developed by the international students, who were asked to give their view of life on campus.

The students were then divided into multicultural and multi-campi teams, to play the “Católica Trivial Pursuit” quiz, which challenged both their general culture and  their knowledge of the University and Portugal, as well as their creativity and sense of humour.

At last, we held an award ceremony, congratulating all participants for their efforts and delivering the prizes to the winning team.
