The International Department is responsible for promoting, supporting, and strengthening UniFAJ’s global presence. Our work integrates internationalization into the academic and professional development of students, faculty, and staff, broadening horizons and connecting our institutions to the world.
We strive to create opportunities for academic mobility, scientific cooperation, and intercultural experiences that enrich university education. To achieve this, we maintain strategic partnerships with international institutions and organizations, offering exchange programs, short-term courses, collaborative projects, internships abroad, and initiatives aimed at strengthening global competencies.
With an approach that values excellence, innovation, and cultural diversity, we support the academic community through all stages of international processes — from initial guidance to ongoing support during and after their experience abroad.
Our commitment is to help ensure that every student has access to an education that is connected, diverse, and aligned with the demands of an increasingly interdependent world. Through internationalization, we broaden horizons, build bridges, and strengthen UniFAJ’s role as a leader in global education.
This is your chance to embark on an unforgettable international experience: study at partner universities, explore new cultures, broaden your perspectives, enhance your resume, and forge global connections that will shape your academic and professional path.
This innovative approach to internationalization enables students to gain international learning experiences within their academic courses. It fosters the development of intercultural competencies, promotes global teamwork, and facilitates direct engagement with diverse academic and professional environments—all without requiring travel outside of Brazil. This experience broadens perspectives, stimulates creativity, and prepares individuals for an increasingly interconnected world.
Through shared courses and virtual exchanges, UniFAJ students gain global experiences that enrich their education, strengthen their academic English, and build bridges between different cultures. It is a unique space to learn, share, and grow within a global community. Becoming part of Global Partners in Education (GPE) means joining an international network of universities committed to fostering intercultural dialogue.
Incoming Mobility is a program that welcomes students, professors, and staff from international institutions to the UniEduK Group University Centers. Through Incoming Mobility, international students have the opportunity to study in our areas of excellence, integrating into a vibrant and welcoming academic community. With qualified professors, cultural activities, study materials available in English, and Portuguese courses for foreigners, UniFAJ and UniMAX offer a comprehensive experience that combines quality learning, cultural immersion, and a lifelong network of connections.
The Bilingual Program is a UniFAJ initiative committed to integrating English into students’ academic journey, strengthening the institution’s internationalization and preparing students for an increasingly global job market.
Established in 2021, the Program has continuously evolved, with a particular focus on health-related fields and the development of linguistic competencies applicable to academic and professional settings. Its aim is to transcend mere language instruction, promoting the use of language as a means to foster cultural awareness and intelligence.
