Recently established, founded in 1976, UNESP offers courses in different areas of theoretical and applied sciences. Since its founding, numerous other faculties have been incorporated into a multicampus structure which today has 34 units in 24 cities in the state of São Paulo, covering practically the entire state with a circumference of 100 kilometers. Bilateral exchanges of researchers and doctoral students are active, focused on AgroEcology and scientific papers have been published in collaboration. UNESP recently obtained the Capes-Print financing for internationalization and it has expressed interest in collaborating in this area with UNIBO.
