The Office of International Relations (SINTER) at the Universidade Federal Santa Catarina (UFSC) has made it possible for undergraduate students and graduates to issue their summary transcripts of records in English, free of charge, directly through the Undergraduate Academic Records System (CAGR). This service was developed in partnership with the Prorectorate for Undergraduate Studies and Basic Education (Prograd) and the Superintendency of Eletronic Governance and Information and Communication Technology (SeTIC).

The initiative aims to make English-language transcripts more accessible to those wishing to pursue academic mobility or graduate studies abroad.

The Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC) achieved the 4th position among the best universities in Brazil in the Times Higher Education (THE) Interdisciplinary Science Rankings 2025. The ranking, which is in its first edition, measures the contribution and commitment of global universities to interdisciplinary science.

The Interdisciplinary Science Rankings 2025 evaluated 749 universities from 92 countries and is currently led by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In the overall ranking, UFSC is in the 136^th position. As for Brazil, the leading institution is the Universidade de São Paulo (USP).

The ranking is based on 11 indicators evaluating institutions in three main areas, each representing a stage in the life cycle of research projects: Inputs (funding); Process (measures of success, facilities, administrative support and promotion); and Outputs (publications, research quality and reputation). UFSC stood out in Inputs, with a grade 57.5 (out of 100), following Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), ranked 2^nd among Brazilian institutions in this area.

The interdisciplinary approach evaluated by the ranking is a growing trend, seen as a solution to complex problems that require the integration of different academic perspectives.
