REGULATION OF THE RESIDENCE HALL OF THE NURSING SCHOOL OF COIMBRA


PREAMBLE

The Residence Hall of the Nursing School of Coimbra (ESEnfC) has been designed to meet the accommodation needs of scholarship students from the Directorate General of Higher Education (DGES) who are enrolled in a course leading to a Bachelor's or Master's degree. The residence hall is intended for students who, due to their economic circumstances, need accommodation to continue their studies and who, due to distance or difficulty of transportation, cannot live with their household during the academic year.

The Residence Hall aims to provide accommodation during the period of academic activity and is committed to respecting the fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals, tolerance, promotion of a positive environment and healthy sociability, and favorable conditions for study and learning.

This can only be achieved through the establishment and enforcement of a set of norms and regulations that are necessary for the effective and equitable use of shared services and facilities by residents, as well as to ensure the optimal operation of the residence hall.

At the beginning of each academic year, 38 places will be reserved for first-year students, international students, students placed at ESEnfC under mobility programs, and ESEnfC students from Portuguese-speaking countries.

The Social Action Department of the Nursing School of Coimbra is responsible for the operational management of the Residence Hall. This includes regulating the application process for accommodation and implementing and developing the participatory management of residents. It is important to have this regulation in place, which all residents must adhere to regardless of the length of stay or their status. At the time of admission, a copy will be provided to the residents so that they are aware of this regulation and take responsibility for its implementation.
