Law student at IDP
“Even during the difficult times of the pandemic, IDP never stopped seeking the best experiences for its students. That's why I was able to do an online exchange program, and I am very grateful for the opportunity to study at NOVA University Lisbon. I participated in relevant discussions that I hadn't had contact with in Brazil and met people with completely different perspectives and experiences from my own. I feel that I have grown as a person, learned things I never imagined, and broadened my vision of studying Law. I recommend that everyone seek at least one international academic experience during their undergraduate studies.”

“My virtual mobility experience at IDP proved to be a very rewarding challenge. The approachability and dynamism of the professors, concerned with capturing our attention and interest, is a factor that greatly impressed me at this faculty. Also, the opportunity to learn more and more about the legal and social reality of Brazil, which differs from the Portuguese one in so many aspects, immensely enriched my experience, resulting in a true dialogue of cultures.”

"The exchange program through IDP was definitely a turning point for me. It broadened my perspectives on my professional focus, in addition to providing incredible academic and personal growth."
