One of the main pillars of all personal and professional formation is education. And this is something that USP (University of São Paulo) understands very well. This is because it is one of the best universities in Latin America and the biggest higher education, post-graduation and research institution of Brazil, with national and international recognition.
How did USP acquire these titles? The history of the university starts in 1934 and counts with the talent and dedication of professors and researchers of international renown as one of the differentials to keep itself in global rankings of quality, specially related to the scientific production, even nowadays.
An example of this is USP’s recognition as the third best university in Latin America by the 2021 edition of QS World University Rankings, a ranking made by a group of global analysts of higher education.
The constant aim to excellence allows USP, a public university, to integrate a select group of institutions of global standards. Check it out!
