Descrição

During the second half of the 19th century, Portugal suffered profound transformations largely impelled by its political stability and economic growth. Industrial education, a commonly employed mechanism during industrialization essential in training skilled workers, was implemented through laws passed in 1851, although the first schools were only established after 1854. In Oporto, over 15.000 students attended two of these schools - Faria Guimaraes and Infante D. Henrique - until 1910. This paper presents a study on these schools.
