Internationalization

In order to consolidate and intensify its internationalization processes, PPGL/UFSCar has developed  a series of actions and measures, which both establish the interest of foreign students, teachers and researchers for the work developed in these three research lines and provide, more and more, the integration of their faculty members and students in international centers of excellence and the growing dissemination of the results of their studies abroad.

The set of internationalization actions includes "out" and "in" actions, ranging from sending researchers to other countries in postdoctoral programs, internships, or missions to visiting international faculty members, as well as publishing papers in journals and the participation in international events.
PPGL has what it calls Sandwich Doctorate Scholarships (PDSE), which is a PhD scholarship for an internship at a post-graduation program overseas, that are offered through specific annual public notices for students who are already enrolled in PPGL.

Furthermore the International Relations Office (SRInter) of UFSCar helps the PPGL promoting the internationalization of the university especially by expanding academic mobility opportunities and reassuring the presence of the institution in the world-class scenario of Higher Education and research.
