Life on the most amazing campus in Fortaleza

I started my graduation full of hopes and dreams, along with many flaws that I had to work. But with the help of the professors and my coordinator, I've been granted with so many opportunities to grow as a professional as well as a person.

Few investments on the neuroscience field.

It is a good place to study, sadly with few opportunities for students who would like to learn about other fields besides classic psychotherapy with common psychological approaches. The academic opportunities are great, but again, too much focused on traditional psychology lines, such as phenomenology and psychoanalyses. For students like me, who is interested in the neuroscience and neuropsychology field, we have to seek outside for better opportunities on matters such as knowledge, experience and internships. The academic staff has also professionals with a low variety range of areas of expertise.
