The University of São Paulo (USP) will start accepting registrations for the first semester of 2025 for the USP 60+ Program on February 3rd, in its 59th edition. The initiative is open to the public over 60 years old, providing more than 4,300 places for free courses in various fields of knowledge.

The program takes place both in the capital and in the inland campuses, offering regular subjects in undergraduate courses and complementary activities such as lectures, cultural workshops, excursions, and sports practices.

Continuous Learning And Intergenerational Interaction

The USP 60+ free courses program aims to promote continuous learning as part of active and healthy aging. According to the program coordinator, Dr. Egidio Dórea, the exchange of experiences among different generations in the classrooms is one of the initiative’s highlights. He emphasizes that lifelong education helps to improve self-esteem, enhance socialization, and reduce the risks of social isolation, which are worldwide public health issues.
