National Strike at Brazilian Federal Universities

14:47:50

Our International Office – SINTER – communicates that due to the national strike of staff an faculties of Federal universities in Brazil, we cannot offer precise beginning and end dates for the August-December semester (2012.2), as specified on the academic calendar. We cannot predict how long the strike will last, nor guarantee that courses will be offered regularly. As of now UFSC facilities such as Library and Cafeteria are closed and will remain closed until the strike ends.

Each partner university will have to decide whether or not to send their students to UFSC for the next semester.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
