Tuition for the ISCTE Business School Master Degree in Management is charged per academic year. For European (EU/EEA) students it is roughly €5,750 in the first year and €1,600 in the second — about €7,350 across the three-semester programme — while non-European students pay roughly €7,000 then €2,800 (about €9,800), with the full annual amount due on enrolment for non-EU candidates.
