ADMISSION
The admission process starts through public calls launched by the graduate programs. Through these calls, applicants get information on how each specific program select students. Each program has their own criteria, but most of them evaluate their applications trhough a knowledge test (for masters), CV analysis, pre-projects submission and presentation or through a combination of two or more of these steps.
If you are an international graduate student and wish to come to UFPE as a mobility student, please check our International Office's website.
It is important to consider, especially for european master’s students, that the Brazilian Higher Education System is a bit different from the European one, since our Bachelors usually last from 4 to 6 years and Masters (2 years) only begin after the completion of the bachelor and a second entrance exam (the process mentioned above).
Taking that into consideration, there may be subjects in the undergraduate programs that might interest an European masters student. We indeed suggest that they take undergraduate classes, since the amount of subjects offered is greater. The explanation on our undergraduate credits system is available at this link.
