This is the first time that a survey of courses detailing modules or full courses in the medium of English in Brazil is published. The purpose of the British Council, in partnership with FAUBAI undertaking the survey, is to twofold: to act as a practical guide for UK students or universities who wish to study at or forge links with suitable institutions in Brazil; and to encourage further internationalisation of Brazil’s tertiary education sector. In an increasingly globalised world, the ability of the higher education sector to be able to operate at an international level is becoming increasingly critical to a country’s economic success. Globally, more than 4.5 million students or researchers opt to study overseas 1. This flow of international students broadens mutual understanding, increases the world’s reservoir of knowledge, and helps build lasting ties between countries. Brazil’s relative isolation has meant that it is less far ahead in this process than other major countries. But initiatives such as Science without Borders and the UK’s Newton Fund have helped to shift the landscape. The UK too has been slow to capitalise on opportunities for undergraduates and graduates to study in Brazil, largely due to the small number of Portuguese speaking students. But the fact that we have been able to identify 695 courses taught in the medium of English indicates more and more Brazilian universities are keen to offer their expertise to a wider range of students, and we hope that this guide gives further impetus to the internationalisation process. Martin Dowle Director Brazil British Council Student mobility is one of the main movers of the internationalisation process of higher education. The quality of destination institutions, their available infrastructure to receive international students, and the investment to be made by interested students, are factors that define whether the institution will or will not attract a great number of international students. The importance of courses and subjects offered in English, in case of Higher Education Institutions of countries whose communication language is not English, must also be highlighted. 1 Source: “Education at a Glance 2014: How many students study abroad and where do they go?” - OECD 3 Guide to Brazilian Higher Education Courses in English ● 2016 In this scenario, Brazil’s Higher Education Institutions have great advantages, as the country has many institutions of excellent quality, most of them ready to offer exchange opportunities to international students with no enrolment or tuition fees. The great challenge is still the obstacle with the teaching language. In order to overcome such difficulty, several Brazilian HEIs are directing their human and financial resources to the development of their English language courses and subjects, so that they may be considered as prestigious destinations in the universe of international education. The release of the first ‘Brazilian Higher Education Courses in English’, a joint initiative of the British Council and the Brazilian Association for International Education - FAUBAI, comes as a catalyst of such efforts, providing information about the courses offered in English by the Brazilian HEIs. International students will be able to consult the possibilities of having excellent academic experiences in Brazil through a standard learning format. Moreover, with the arrival of international students, local students will benefit from the internationalisation process, which is being developed by the Brazilian HEIs at their own home country. We rest assured that the information contained in this Guide will be able to stimulate more HEIs to develop courses and subjects in English, increasing the possibilities of attracting international students to Brazil, and contributing with the Brazilian Higher Education internationalization process. José Celso Freire Junior President FAUBAI Brazil and the Higher Education Institutions About Brazil Brazil is the largest country in South America and it shares borders with every country on the continent except for Ecuador and Chile. It is the fifth largest country in the world and it is similar in size to the continental United States. Divided into 26 states and one federal district, its geography varies significantly per region. The population is of around 199 million people. A disproportionate percentage of the population lives in the Southeast region, out of which 87 4 Guide to Brazilian Higher Education Courses in English ● 2016 percent in urban areas. Brazil has a fast-growing economy. Key market systems include agriculture, mining, manufacturing, and the service sectors. Brazil is Latin America’s main market, representing almost 50% of the territory and 37% of the overall economy. Brazil’s participation in the region’s economy is expected to maintain its pace or to reduce its share by 1-2%, mainly due to Mexican and Colombian rise for the period. Even with the Nominal GDP participation volume reduction in the continent, Brazil will continue to have a strong status regarding the inflow of foreign capital and market significance inside the region 2. Higher Education in Brazil According to Brazilian legislation, school education encompasses two levels: basic education, comprising of early childhood education, primary education and secondary education, and higher education. Higher education in Brazil is divided graduate into undergraduate levels. The and standard Brazilian undergraduate bachelor’s degree is awarded in most fields of arts, humanities, and sciences and it normally requires 4 years of postsecondary studies at a certified university. Aspiring teachers may take a licentiate degree, which takes three to four years to be 2 Source: Deloitte, “Investment History in Brazil,” 2014. 5 Guide to Brazilian Higher Education Courses in English ● 2016 completed, while technology courses offer highly specialized professional degrees and take between two to three years. Five-year degrees are awarded in the socalled professional careers such as architecture, engineering, veterinary medicine, dentistry, and law. The undergraduate degree in medicine requires six years of full-time post-secondary studies, plus several years to specialize in a given field. For those wishing to be enrolled in full programmes in Brazil, students must pass a competitive entrance examination (known as Vestibular) for their specific course. The number of candidates per available openings in the freshman class is likely to be high in the most competitive courses at the top public universities. Brazil’s school year starts in February / March, with a break in July and continues until December. Summer vacation goes from mid-December to early February. Today, Brazil has one of the most impressive graduate educational levels among developing countries. Graduate master’s degrees are awarded following the completion of a two-year programme, plus the submission of a Master’s dissertation. Doctoral degrees require four years of full-time studies and the submission of an extensive doctoral thesis. The Brazilian university system reflects world standards and some of Brazil's universities appear among the 200 best in the world 3. With Brazil’s push towards improving educational standards and its recent moves towards attracting international students, it is becoming easier for international students to apply to study in Brazil. Internationalisation and Brazilians HEIs Internationalisation of higher education is a subject that is gaining increasing relevance both for public and private Brazilian HEIs. Internationalisation has been used as an instrument that makes a difference in the outlook for teaching, as well as for research. To encourage the internationalisation of Brazilian HEIs, many initiatives are aimed at raising the intensity of student and/or faculty mobility in Brazil. Brazilian federal research agencies have a long-track record of supporting international research partnerships. Bilateral agreements with various countries in Europe, North America as well as Latin America have existed for decades. To develop the “British Council – FAUBAI Guide to Brazilian Higher Education Courses in English”, a survey of all courses and activities offered in English Language at Brazilian HEI’s has been carried out. A questionnaire was prepared and sent by e-mail to international offices or institutional sections 3 http://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings 6 Guide to Brazilian Higher Education Courses in English ● 2016 related to international activities from public and private HEI’s, according to a specially organized database. Guide to Brazilian Higher Education Courses in English This guide presents the results of a survey answered by Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) from Brazil that offer courses in English for international students. During the first phase of the research, the questionnaire was sent by email to international offices of 270 HEI’s, which comprises about 12% of all HEI’s in Brazil 4. The database was built by combining the individual databases of FAUBAI (Brazilian Association for International Education), ABRUEM (Brazilian Association of Rectors of State and Municipal Universities); ANDIFES (National Association of Directors of Federal Institutions of Higher Education); ABIPE, (Brazilian Association of Professional and Student Exchange); and CRUB (Council of Rectors of Brazilian Universities). Thus, this guide covers the country’s most important public and private HEI’s. In Phase I, HEIs were asked basic information about the institutions (e.g. number of domestic and international students, number of graduate and undergraduate programmes, international students support, contact details, etc.) and whether or not they offered programmes/courses in English. In this Phase, 33% of HEI’s responded to the survey. In a second phase, HEIs that stated offering 4 The total number of Higher Education Institutions in Brazil in 2014 was 2,368 according to the last research made by the National Institute of Education Studies and Researches Anísio Teixeira (INEP), a federal authority linked to the Brazilian Ministry of Education. 7 Guide to Brazilian Higher Education Courses in English ● 2016 courses in English were contacted by e-mail and telephone and asked to provide more detailed information about their programmes. The guide was then developed based on 45 Brazilian HEIs, from four different Brazilian regions, and present detailed information on 671 courses offered in English.
