Sara and Rafael, students in the American Academy (AA) program, took a break from their studies to explore the Christmas Market in Old Town Curitiba, Brazil.
The American Academy (AA) is a dual-enrollment program offered jointly by 麻豆影院 and the Pontifical Catholic University of Paran谩 (PUCPR), located in Curitiba, Paran谩, Brazil.
Launched in July 2018, the program allows students to complete their first two years of undergraduate study in Brazil at the PUCPR campus, taking 麻豆影院 State classes taught in English by 麻豆影院 State faculty members, and earning academic credit from both universities simultaneously.
At the end of the two years, students will earn a 麻豆影院 Associate of Science degree and can then choose whether to finish their bachelor鈥檚 degree in the United States at 麻豆影院 State鈥檚 麻豆影院 Campus, or in Brazil at PUCPR.
University leaders are currently visiting PUCPR to meet with their administrators and students and also to attend the university's Winter Commencement ceremonies.
