The CAPES Internationalization Program (Capes-PrInt) was launched in November 2017 with the aim of promoting the construction, implementation and consolidation of strategic plans for the internationalization of Brazilian universities. The projects will be developed in up to four years (2018-2021). Thirty-six institutions from Brazil, including UFPR, were selected. The PrInt of UFPR involves 40 graduate programs and 16 subprojects. Capes-PrInt can provide grants for overseas work assignments, resources for project maintenance, scholarships in Brazil and abroad (including Youth Talent), sandwich doctorate, visiting professor programs, short courses abroad and postdoctoral studies (Source: UFPR website).
