From 17 to 21 July 2026, we’re returning to the Arrábida Convent to once again experience an immersive and interdisciplinary experience that challenges doctoral students to expand their research horizons.
The Eutopia Doctoral Summer School is a residential programme where, for five days, PhD Students are led to develop a project, accompanied by mentors and keynote speakers, debating a wide range of topics and acquiring new knowledge. In 2025 we had 30 students from 27 diverse fields, 15 different nationalities, 14 schools represented, sharing knowledge and experiences.
