The Institute of Brazilian Studies [Instituto de Estudos Brasileiros] (IEB) aims to research Brazilian culture in its many aspects, offering multidisciplinary teaching, research, and outreach. To this end, IEB seeks to develop research methods and techniques in the Humanities, Letters, and Arts, as well as in appropriate interfaces with the Natural and Exact Sciences. IEB also conducts ongoing research related to Brazilian studies. Additionally, IEB aims to preserve, organize, and disseminate its collection, making it available for research activities and the community. IEB is located on the São Paulo Campus, in the University City [Cidade Universitária] (Butantã district), west side of the city of São Paulo.

IEB offers a variety of courses at undergraduate level. For detailed information about the courses available and enrollment procedures, we kindly ask students to contact the Institute directly.

IEB offers one Graduate Program* in the following Area of Concentration:

*(Levels: M = Master’s Degree | D = Doctoral Degree)

Research at IEB is conducted through projects developed by its own faculty, researchers, specialists, and post-doctoral students, as well as by researchers from USP and other institutions. By exploring primary sources stored at IEB and assisting with their classification, these researchers have made the interaction between research and collections a distinctive feature of IEB’s work. This approach has facilitated the formation of teams, ranging from undergraduates to postgraduates, dedicated to producing theses and monographs.
