The Astronomy Degree, the first and only in the country, provides an interdisciplinary training, including applications of mathematics, physics, computation, data handling and others essential to modern Astronomy.

The wide and diversified education provided is not only extremely important for a future carrier in research in Astronomy, but also in a large variety of jobs outside the scope of Astronomy where the interdisciplinary training is an advantage.

CAUP has a large group of researchers in several areas of Astronomy/Astrophysics and strong links with other european research institutions in Astronomy.

This Degree is organised by the Departamento de Física e Astronomia da Faculdade de Ciências da Universidade do Porto.
