career opportunities

When they enter the course, many of our students are already integrated in the labor market, and often in the health area. In this context, the HM can be useful and important for career advancement purposes or for changing functions, usually from direct care to management functions.

For those students not yet integrated into the labor market, or from outside the health area, the HM can be useful to apply for management positions, in the public and private sectors, in Portugal or abroad, in primary health care, in hospital care, in regional or central bodies, or in other types of health providers or organizations (for example, in the areas of dentistry, physiotherapy, clinical analysis, continuous care, ...).

The HM can also be an entry point to an academic pathway, namely to doctoral programs: the School's, or others, in Portugal or abroad.
