New Full Professorship at NOVA FCSH: Manuel Pedro Ferreira

Last Monday March 25, an international jury at NOVA FCSH in Lisbon, pronounced its verdict concerning the public competition for a full Professorship in the specialty of Historical Musicology, a vacancy opened last year at NOVA’s Department of Musicology. Manuel Pedro Ferreira, Associate Professor with Habilitation in the same Department, and chair of CESEM, was given the position. The last such competition in Portugal occurred in 1997; Mário Vieira de Carvalho, founder of CESEM and now Professor Emeritus, was then given the equivalent Professorship.
