These courses are spread across 12 academic centres and cover a wide range of subjects. As well as undergraduate courses, the university also has a number of postgraduate offerings allowing students to further specialise in their chosen field of study. In addition, a number of students choose to make use of the university’s foreign exchange programme, and study abroad as part of their degree.
The Federal University of Pernambuco has a number of famous alumni, including the actor Irandhir Santos, the mathematician Ruy de Queiroz, as well as the politician Christovam Buarque.
