University of Blumenau (FURB)

The University of Blumenau can trace its roots back to the 1950s and began life as the Faculty of Economic Sciences of Blumenau. After steady expansion it was recognised as a university in 1987 and a higher education institution in 1994, achieving institutional autonomy in 2010. 
FURB enrols more than 8,000 students across a comprehensive range of disciplines. All courses are taught in Portuguese with a few, mostly in business, also offered in English. 
There is a strong emphasis on social inclusion, with the Santa Catarina state government’s Free University programme providing assistance with tuition fees since 2023. Recently-established social programmes include the offer of free care to fibromyalgia patients by physiotherapy students.
