Located at Parque das Nações, ESTeSL offers Degree Courses, adapted to the Bologna Process, and Master Programmes in Health Technologies fields.

With a unique history and culture, ESTeSL has an innovating school concept that connects internship activities, research projects and community services in the health domain.

ESTeSL is a higher education institution that has been recognized in the area of Health Technologies consequential to the high quality work performed by the Diagnosis and Therapeutic Professionals that it prepares for the labor market, which involves about 1968 students, 215 lectures and 38 Administrative staff. The School believes that a strong connection with the community is of the utmost importance.
