The president of the Coimbra City Hall stated that the Instituto Superior Miguel Torga (ISMT), a private higher education institution, should be integrated into the University of Coimbra. The mayor revealed this position during a statement to the media.

The ISMT is a private institution owned by the Community... (information truncated in the article). It is a higher education institution that may become part of the University of Coimbra, changing its current status as a private establishment.

The president of the Coimbra City Council was the political figure who announced this intention, publicly positioning herself on the future of the institute. Integration into the public university would represent a significant change in the nature and management of the educational institution.

The integration process, if it moves forward, will have an impact on the higher education system in the Coimbra region, affecting students, faculty, and the local academic structure. The details regarding the timeline and conditions of this integration were not fully specified in the available article.

New social welfare model in Higher Education: strengthen without excluding

The article analyzes the new Regulation for the Award of Scholarships to Higher Education Students approved by the Portuguese Government in May, which adjusts scholarship amounts to students' economic conditions and regional cost of living. The rector of the University of Aveiro warns that preliminary simulations at the institution indicate that around 20% of scholarship recipients analyzed (15 out of 72 cases) could no longer meet the conditions to receive a scholarship under the new rules. Although recognizing that the phased implementation until 2027/28 is positive, he argues that the reform requires a rigorous assessment of its effects, as the success of a social welfare policy is not measured only by the value of support, but also by the ability to ensure that no one is left behind.
