Scientific research at the University of Beira Interior is promoted by the Coordinator Institute of Research (ICI), which aims to boost research, fostering the convergence of knowledge domains and the implementation of multidisciplinary teams in order to increase scientific productivity and to rationalize human and material resources.

The ICI has the responsibility to promote the articulation between the education system and the research system, in a perspective of renewal of postgraduate education, to cooperate in the implementation of the strategic decisions of UBI in the field of research and development, and it is also its aim to enhance the possibility of international affirmation of UBI’s scientific research. In these areas, it is the ICI’s responsibility to promote the debate and critical reflection on the scientific activity and also to disseminate science held in the institution.

The ICI integrates Research Units that may exercise their activities in UBI and which have been classified as Good or higher rating by international panels of periodic review appointed by the Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (Science and Technology Foundation).
