Interuniversity Centre for the History of Science and Technology

Centro Interuniversitário de História das Ciências e da Tecnologia - CIUHCT

CIUHCT aims at promoting research in the History of Science and Technology according to international standards of scholarship and at contributing to the development and consolidation of this discipline in Portugal. Furthermore, CIUHCT aims at contributing to the consolidation of a strong scientific community by actively participating in the education of students (graduate and post-graduate level) as well as by enrolling in outreach activities (popularization, exhibits). CIUHCT aims at articulating discussions at the conceptual and methodological levels with research on specific topics especially focused on, but not restricted to, Portuguese history. In any case this focus is achieved through the integration in international groups, initiatives, and publications.
