Institutional Affiliation

Considering the need to adapt the way of presenting institutional affiliation to R&D indexing techniques in international databases, the Dispatch ADM/0381/2019 determines that in all research outputs the following affiliation must be used:

Universidade Católica Portuguesa, (Faculdade) e/ou (Instituto), (Unidade de Investigação), Portugal

• The designation “Universidade Católica Portuguesa” must always be included (mandatory and first position in the affiliation), always in Portuguese, and the use of any other form of abbreviation of the name of the University is not allowed;
• The sequence of the defined hierarchy, Faculty, Institute and Research Unit, should be used. They may appear as second and third affiliations if there is enough space, but never to the detriment of the omission of the designation “Universidade Católica Portuguesa”;
• Always use commas to separate the different designations;
• Faculty, Institute and Research Unit are optional affiliations, and the author may choose not to include one or more of them, but always respecting the order presented;
• Optional affiliations (i.e., Faculty, Institute, Research Unit) must have the designation shown in the attached table (in Portuguese or English), and the use of any other designations is not allowed;
• The affiliation must obligatorily end with the indication of the country, which must be in all cases “Portugal”, without any further type of regional indication.
