"The Lisbon Consortium offers a very consistent program designed to trigger critical and analytical thought. The extremely competent and empathetic teaching staff can only be matched with the exciting body of students, whose diverse backgrounds and interests provide fruitful discussions and bonds. One key aspect that pervades this program is humanity. Towards one another, the objects argued on, the theories debated, and, ultimately, their implication for the construction of a more livable society for all. The MA in Culture Studies is a lesson on how to effectively understand life through Academia."

“After almost a decade working as manager of cultural projects in Rio de Janeiro, I was looking for a Master’s program that could offer an overview of the main questions connected to the field of Culture. This led me to choose The Lisbon Consortium. The experience reinforced my writing, creativity and time management skills; the Summer School made it possible for me to get acquainted with students and professors from numerous countries, and inspired me to look at new ways of thinking about culture. Moreover, it allowed me to access contents, institutions, authors and discussions about a wide range of themes in the cultural realm, which have helped consolidate my qualifications in this field and functioned as a fundamental and transformative tool for my professional life.”
