AEESHTE

The Estoril School of Hotel Management and Tourism (AEESHTE) Student Association app was developed to strengthen communication between the association and students, centralizing all information, benefits, and features relevant to the academic and social life of ESHTE students in a single digital space.

Recognizing this need, AEESHTE created this app to provide an integrated, intuitive, and accessible experience that promotes student engagement and facilitates access to the activities and initiatives promoted by the AE.

This app thus responds to the growing demand for a dynamic and efficient platform that allows ESHTE students to access useful services, participate in events, and benefit from the exclusive benefits offered by the Student Association.
