Academic mobility guide Brazilian students

The Unis Group’s International Academic Mobility Program was created to provide qualification opportunities for its students and faculty through academic and professional experiences abroad.

The Unis Group, through the agreements signed with foreign higher education institutions, offers the mobility program, as well as receiving foreign students of different nationalities. This is a way to ensure the qualification, internationalization and insertion of Grupo Unis in the panorama of national and international higher education institutions.

This program offers, in particular to its students, the possibility of carrying out academic activities abroad in different modalities. The student may choose to carry out part of their undergraduate studies at an institution participating in the Program. This period can vary from one semester to one year, and on return the student may have the credits reused by their home institution.

The important thing is that the student can enjoy an international academic experience, combining personal experience with professional skills developed in another country. Insertion in a new culture, socializing with people of other nationalities, immersion in a foreign language ensure that the experience of leaving Brazil can be unforgettable and will mark the trajectory of academics, making them more competitive and better prepared for the challenges of global market.

Offers

Universities offer international academic mobility places for Unis Group students at the beginning of each academic semester for the subsequent semester.

In March/April and September/October, the vacancies offered by the partner universities are announced to all students through the Unis Group website, Social Networks (Facebook Unis international relations ) and also in classrooms.

Program Duration

The International Academic Mobility Program authorizes students to stay from one semester to one year developing activities abroad. These activities must be approved by analyzing and matching the academic calendars, observing the differences in the start and end dates of the academic periods of the partner institutions. This must be observed so that the exchange does not interfere in a harmful way in the organization of the students’ academic life when they return to Brazil.
