Abstract/Resumo
This chapter presents the preliminary results of the project “Scientific Mobility to Portugal: Production and circulation of knowledge in highly-skilled migration”.1 Its main objective was to investigate how scientific mobility takes places in Portugal, considering its complexity and different dimensions. It is based on the experience of foreign scholars and scientists who develop their academic career and scientific activities in Portugal. By using a mixed-method approach that includes an online survey and in-depth interviews to foreign scholars working in Portugal and semi-structure interviews to directors of research centres and national laboratories, it shows that Portugal has a great potential to attract international scientists, however some important aspects must be carefully analyzed and improved in order to better place the country in the international academic mobility dynamics.
