Over the past recent years, the Portuguese language has started to emerge globally as a language of science, business and culture and its importance has been highlighted in the media and the subject of academic studies with a global impact. The University of Coimbra played a unique role in this regard for many centuries as the only Portuguese language university in the world until the early 20th century.
