At Uni, our students have the opportunity to study abroad, either for short stays, for a semester, in summer programs or even postgraduate studies. Francisco Calvillo tells us about his experience in Brazil:
When you entered Uni did you know there were international programs?
Yes, it is something that the University of Celaya is very popular for.
Have you ever lived or studied outside of Mexico before?
What prompted or motivated you to study in another country?
Why did you decide to study in that country?
How did you feel when you arrived in the new country?
It's very different, the way people are, the language, the culture, it's all very different but I'm excited to be in another country.
How have you been received at the university where you arrived?
The Academic Mobility program of the PUCRS is ideal for foreigners who come to study here because they show you what the University is like and teach you a little of the culture of the country.
What will you miss most about Mexico?
My family, of course. And gastronomy.
What about the Uni?
My friends haha.
What is the most exciting thing you have experienced so far in this experience?
Traveling to other places is always an adventure, accompanied by other strangers to the unknown.
And the hardest part?
What do you expect as a person and as a professional from this program?
Of course, they should make the most of it, it is not common for Universities to have these international programs, do not waste them.
