    Este artigo analisa o impacto económico do Instituto Politécnico de Setúbal na região. Utilizando uma abordagem pelo lado da procura, mediu-se o impacto dos gastos dos estudantes, docentes e não docentes, bem como das aquisições de bens e serviços da própria instituição na economia, medindo o impacto no PIB, no emprego, bem como nos gastos totais para a economia. Foi utilizada uma abordagem quantitativa, através da aplicação de questionário a uma amostra aleatória representativa da população alvo. Os resultados revelam um forte impacto económico na região, estimado em 58 milhões de euros (1,77% do PIB dos concelhos de Setúbal e Barreiro) e a sua relevância enquanto empregador (o 2º maior em Setúbal e o 3º no Barreiro). Acresce a forte capacidade de fixar jovens na região para obterem a sua formação superior, com 60% dos estudantes locais a indicarem não ter mudado de residência, mas que iriam estudar para outro local caso o IPS não existisse e de reprodutividade do orçamento de Estado, transformando 1 euro recebido em mais de 3 euros na economia local.

    This paper analyses the economic impact of Setubal Polytechnic Institute in the region. Using a demand side approach, this study measures the expenditure of students, academic and nonacademic staff as well as the expenditure of IPS in acquisitions of goods and services, measuring their impact on GDP, employment as well as on total expenditures on the economy. We have applied a questionnaire to a random sample of the target population. The results reveal a strong impact of IPS on the regional economy, estimated at 58 million euros (1,77% of the local GDP) and its relevance on job creation (second biggest employer in Setubal and third in Barreiro). There is also its impact at maintaining youngsters in the region to obtain their tertiary education, as 60% of students in the region stated they would otherwise have studied in another region, had IPS not existed, as well as its capacity to reproduce public investment estimated at more than three euros per euro invested by the State.
