The São Paulo State University (Unesp) is accepting applications for 144 spots in free undergraduate courses at the Ilha Solteira campus. The opportunity is aimed at students interested in the fields of agronomic, civil, electrical, and mechanical engineering. Applications are open until May 6th and must be submitted through the Vunesp website.
The spots are evenly distributed among the four courses. Each offers 36 spots, with part allocated to the Universal System (SU) and part to the Public Basic Education Vacancy Reservation System (SRVEBP).
