The Graduate Program in Veterinary Medicine (Animal Clinics and Reproduction) has sought in recent years to seek greater internationalization, thus aiming to establish partnerships with various research groups around the world. These partnerships allow for joint research projects to be carried out, thus generating important scientific productions and enabling the training of our teachers and students.
In a broader horizon, the Program’s internationalization process allows our researchers and students the opportunity to interact with other research groups, thus enabling the exchange of knowledge and experiences. From this perspective, it allows our students and teachers to go on internships abroad and to receive students and researchers from abroad in our laboratories, allowing interaction with research groups.
For these actions to take place, several projects were submitted to development agencies to enable the execution of these partnerships. In recent years, the following projects have been approved to internationalize the PPG:
