Summary:Focused on the collection of theses and dissertations, the aim of the following study is tolook to the scientific production of ULisboa and analyse the international visibility of it through the statistical report of these two institutional repositories for the last 10 years (2010-2019). For this purpose, the total number of thesis and dissertations of the ULisboa, archived in both repositories, were collected, for the period 2010-2019 (10 years of implementation of the institutional repositories).
