圣保罗州立大学

The Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp) was created in 1976. It has consolidated a project joining scientific, technological, economic, cultural and social development committed to democratic principles and clearly conscious of its status as a governmental institution, which is highly active in Brazilian society. UNESP´s actions are focused on nearly every field of experimental and theoretical sciences such as: engineering, health, communication, humanities, social sciences and arts, among others.UNESP is a respected institution with accomplished members, fully-accredited programs and strong research base – and these will remain its priorities. UNESP is one of the largest and most important Brazilian universities, with distinguished achievements in teaching, research and extension services. UNESP is supported by State funds. UNESP is the most successful model of a multi-campus university in Brazil. Such a unique characteristic allows for intense and diversified activities in Sao Paulo, the most developed state in the country. Its influence can be recognized by the level of regional development where its campuses are located: one in the state capital and 22 others strategically distributed throughout the State.Following the worldwide trend, UNESP is now, more than ever, looking for new boundaries to cross and challenges to face, by signing new agreements with top quality institutions throughout the world.
