LOCATION
Brazil
The Federal University of São Paulo
is located in the most populated and
wealthiest state of Brazil: São Paulo.
The State of São Paulo alone answers
for over one third of Brazil´s GDP and
concentrates one third of Brazilian jobs.
São Paulo
The wealth of São Paulo reaches much
further than its monetary assets; it lays
in the cultural diversity that has forged its population since its
beginnings.
The city is a true melting pot where the Portuguese, Italians,
Germans, the Jewish, the Japanese, the Chinese, Koreans, the French,
Africans, Arabs, the Spanish, and Brazilians, to name a few, meet and
build cities with cosmopolitan vocation.
This is the environment where UNIFESP thrives as a comprehensive
public university.
