The Office of International Relations (SINTER) held a Welcome Session, on 22 August, for international students arriving at UFSC for the second semester of 2022. The session took place at the Rectorate Building Auditorium, on the Trindade Campus, in Florianópolis. The event aimed to broaden the reception to the entire international student community at UFSC. Thus, in addition to the exchange students, the event was also targeted at all degree-seeking international students on campus.

The Director of International Relations at UFSC, Dr. Fernanda Leal, participated in the round table “Internacionalização da pós-graduação brasileira: a relevância dos acordos Sul-Sul” [Brazilian Graduate Internationalization: the relevance of South-South agreements], on 6 July, together with the ambassador Irene Vida Gala and the graduate student Eliza Feres. The table is part of the local stage of the 28^th Brazilian Congress of Graduate Students (Congresso de Nacional de Pós-Graduandos – CNPG), promoted by the Brazilian Association of Graduate Students (Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduandos – ANPG), which took place at the Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF).

The participation of the Director of SINTER in the event endorses the concept of internationalization that UFSC seeks to deepen, which is: internationalization as an instrument of international solidarity and academic excellence, through multilateralism and multilingualism.

The Office of International Relations (SINTER) has prepared a guide to assist in the writing of institutional documents and correspondences in English at the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC).

Aiming to contribute to the university’s internationalization efforts, the guide includes instructions on how to write a formal correspondence in English, brings a series of useful phrases and expressions for letters and emails, and makes other recommendations about the use of English, besides providing document templates to be used by the academic community.
