A Message from our Dean

At CATÓLICA-LISBON we have always punched above our weight.

50 years ago, a small group of professors with few resources made history by setting up a leading business school in Europe, through their vision, dedication, excellence and ability to innovate. This example inspires us to define a bold strategy to achieve more impact and inspires our students and alumni to become better.

We create responsible leaders, guided by ethics and inspired by the values ​​of Christian humanism, which allows them to give meaning to their lives and leave a positive mark on organizations and the world, aligned with the UN sustainable development agenda.

We have always promoted rigorous research and demanding teaching, which goes beyond the borders of knowledge and education, promoting the development of personal skills and tools that allow the construction of exceptional careers.

The ability to innovate has been in our DNA from day one, and we aim to remain at the forefront of research and teaching in business sciences, while fostering entrepreneurial skills in our community and worldwide.

In the last 25 years, we have gone from being a leading school in Portugal to being part of the top European business schools, being recognized for the quality of our knowledge and talent.

To be CATÓLICA-LISBON i s to integrate a unique community of outstanding human beings, exceptional professionals and innovators, that want to - and actually do - change the world. 

We are counting on you!
