The School of Technology and Management of Lamego began its academic activities in the 2000/2001 academic year with the courses in Management and Informatics, and Tourism, Cultural, and Heritage Management. Subsequently, it expanded its offerings with courses in Computer Engineering and Telecommunications, Accounting and Auditing, Social Work, Tourism Information, and Administrative Secretariat.
