FAUUSP has academic agreements with several institutions around the world.
The agreements allow students to exchange, double diploma (undergraduate and master) and double degree (doctorate).
In addition to being able to include the mobility of professors and staff.
To initiate an agreement, the institution must contact us (ccintfau@usp.br), so that we can begin negotiations on legal terms between the parties involved. If there is already a contact with a FAUUSP’s professor, this professor may mediate the negotiation.
USP has some pre-written agreement models, which can be made more flexible as agreed between the institutions.
Below are two models of agreements in English:
LEIA MAISFAUUSP receives students from partner institutions abroad for one or two semesters, depending on the nature of the agreement between the institutions. FAUUSP receives students of Architecture and Design courses.
The courses of Architecture and Urbanism and Design at FAUUSP last five years. The Architecture course has classes in the morning and afternoon (from 08h00 to 18h00) and the Design course is in the night (19h00 to 22h30).
USP’s Credits : 1 credit class is 15 hours and 1 credit work, 30 hours. The home institution, upon return of the student, makes an analysis of the credits and hours completed by the student during the exchange, to account for them in their own system.
FAUUSP’s academic year begins at the beginning of the year, usually at the end of February. The academic calendar can be accessed at Jupiterweb: uspdigital.usp.br/jupiterweb
NOMINATION AND APPLICATION
To apply for an exchange student at FAU, the home institution must make her / him NOMINATION online via the Mundus system (uspdigital.usp.br/mundus).
Having been NOMINATED by her / him home institution, the exchange student will receive an email with instructions to complete their application to Mundus. It is the student’s duty to provide the necessary documentation.
Note: Acceptance will depend on the number of students interested in the semester, since the agreement provides for the mutual exchange of the same number of students between the institutions.
Deadlines
For the first semester (February to June): online registration from 01 August until 15 October
For the second semester (August to December): online registration from 01 March until 05 May
Necessary documents
A digital – and readable – copy of the following documents will be required for registration:
