Internationalization

AI was created in the 1990s as part of the University of Santa Cruz do Sul. This office works in partnership with the Rector’s Office and is responsible for creating cooperation agreements with foreign institutions. It also encourages lecturers, researchers and students to take a step forward in their academic life and participate in exchange programs in partner universities abroad, which gives them the chance to improve their cognitive knowledge and widen their cultural awareness. Moreover, AI advises, coordinates and manages International Cooperation activities encouraging teaching and research through internationalization actions.
