The Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities (CRUP) and its Brazilian equivalent, the National Association of the Officers of the Federal Higher Education Schools (ANDIFES) signed a memorandum of understanding to facilitate the process of recognition, revalidation and equivalence of academic degrees and titles.
This protocol includes the Portuguese universities represented by CRUP and 12 Brazilian universities.
"I hope that this will be a much more expedited way of recognition of Portuguese diplomas" said the president of CRUP, Professor António Rendas.
