2. Universidade da Beira Interior
The University of Beira Interior has The "Erasmus Student Network (ESN)". The ESN Covilha is an international nonprofit organization. Its mission is to represent the international students, providing opportunities for cultural knowledge and personal development based on the principle of mutual aid of the students. ESN is active in 36 countries and is constituted by 12,000 members of 396 sections, which work voluntarily with the Universities providing service to 150,000 students. They will help incoming students with practical issues such us, registration procedures, open a bank account, etc.
Language courses: UBI organises Erasmus Intensive Language Courses - EILC (summer and winter editions) aimed at providing foreign students the opportunity to get familiar with Portuguese language, culture and society before their studies in UBI start.
During the academic year, Portuguese language lectures will take place twice a week. Each student is welcome to attend this language course but these lectures are not a substitute for EILC, but a way to develop the autonomy and the Portuguese language knowledge of each student.
The University of Beira Interior welcomes students and staff with disabilities and provides an information and assistance center.
