GLOBAL CLASSES

 

PUCPR is the leading Brazilian institution in offering undergraduate classes entirely in English. In 2020, we took a step further towards the internationalization of our University and released the Global Classes Program, which offers an array of classes taught in different languages to both local and international students. The program includes options of classes in other languages and allows international students to complete an entire semester of study in a foreign language while interacting with Brazilian students, experiencing different cultural perspectives, and broadening their overall knowledge and understanding.

To attend Global Classes, international students must follow the regular application procedures, indicating the classes that will be attended at PUCPR. Please ask for further information at [email protected]
