INSTITUTO SUPERIOR TÉCNICO Universidade Técnica de Lisboa 16 Motivation for ATTRACT Understand how engineering professionals are viewed in different European countries; Compare different student recruitment systems and analyse their results; Identify new ways of attracting students for: science and technology; IST; Improve student learning experiences and outcomes.

17. INSTITUTO SUPERIOR TÉCNICO Universidade Técnica de Lisboa 17 Recruitment of students Students are recruited for public HE through a national contest; Changes in secondary education (general vs vocational) tend to reduce the number of candidates with usual access qualifications; From 2012/2013, all candidates to engineering programmes must have completed Mathematics at 12th year level (this has always been a requirement at IST, but not in all HEIs).
