International mobility is a modality where a graduate student from a non-Brazilian institution comes to UFABC for a given period (between a month and a year, according to the activities to be performed and the program coordination’s evaluation).
National mobility is where a graduate student from a Brazilian institution comes to UFABC for a given period (between a month and a year, according to the activities to be performed and the program coordination’s evaluation).
During this period the mobility student is registered as a regular student, having the same rights and bound to the same regulations as other students, as accessing facilities, borrowing books from the campus library and paying the student fare at the restaurant.
The mobility student must have an advisor from a graduate program at UFABC, the mobility must be approved by the program coordination and the focus is on research collaboration. Here you can check the requisites and steps for students that come from Brazilian and foreign institutions.
