This year's edition of the Unicamp Open Doors program, UPA 2021, begins this Tuesday (20). The program includes panels in which major topics that affect the University's activities will be discussed, such as innovation and entrepreneurship; scientific and technological production during the pandemic; and ways to guarantee a more sustainable future that respects human rights. There will also be activities and chats with professors and students from Unicamp's undergraduate courses, as well as videos that allow a tour of the campuses and present the infrastructure and services available to university students. For those thinking about taking the Unicamp entrance exam, Comvest hosts live streams and chats about entry modalities at the university, organization of tests and inclusion and retention policies aimed at students.
"UPA is an event of great importance as it allows the University to bring together high school students and college entrance students. It is an opportunity for interaction in which Unicamp presents its courses, laboratories, research, structures and clarifies doubts about their respective careers professionals. In the 2021 edition, our expectation is that the virtual format will enable more students to have the possibility of getting to know Unicamp and that UPA will be an event that can support them in the decision-making process about the future of their professional careers", comments Maria Luiza Moretti, general coordinator of Unicamp
The opening of UPA 2021 will be at 12pm, live, on TV Unicamp channel on YouTube. All activities will also be broadcast on YouTube, on the channels of TV Unicamp, Vestibular Unicamp and the university's colleges and educational institutes. Those who cannot watch live will be able to check out the recordings, which will be available on the channels. All access links to the broadcasts can be found on the website www.upa.unicamp.br in the "programming" tab. It is possible to refine the search for activities by course or teaching unit.
