CICECO – Aveiro Institute of Materials proudly acknowledges its dynamic alumni community, composed of highly skilled professionals who are making significant contributions across academia, industry, and public service. These individuals exemplify the quality, ambition, and impact of the training provided at our laboratory.
Our alumni have established themselves in more than 100 cities across five continents, holding positions in leading universities, research centres, global companies, and innovation-driven start-ups. This international distribution highlights not only the global relevance of CICECO’s doctoral education but also the adaptability and competitiveness of our graduates in diverse scientific and professional landscapes.
Equally noteworthy is their enduring impact at the regional level. A substantial proportion of alumni continue to work within Portugal, particularly in the Centro region, contributing directly to local innovation ecosystems and strengthening the national research and industrial fabric. Their presence in regional companies, technology hubs, and higher education institutions reinforces CICECO’s role as a driver of knowledge-based development in the territory.
By bridging scientific excellence with real-world application, our alumni embody the laboratory core mission: to advance materials science while fostering societal progress. They continue to be invaluable partners in our ongoing pursuit of innovation, and we look forward to strengthening the ties that connect us, both regionally and globally.
