Campus Veritati

Together We Shape The Future
Campus Veritati

Universidade Católica Portuguesa's Campus Veritati is a project by architect João Luís Carrilho da Graça. It will encompass two buildings located in the Northern part of the current Lisbon Campus. It will welcome the new building for Católica Lisbon School of Business & Economics and also a Multifunctional Conference Center, a central space which promotes the connection between the University and its Community. This last building, highly technological, includes an Innovation Center – E-Lab and a state of the art auditorium that fits 700 people.

Isabel Capeloa Gil, Rector of UCP, explains that the project by Architect Carrilho da Graça was chosen "for possessing a great sobriety and simplicity, but also a great vanguardist character, embodying the values of Universidade Católica Portuguesa itself".

Construction of the Campus Veritati is expected to begin in 2021.
