How could we integrate this Program?
Dear Neri dos Santos,
In the current edition it will not be possible, because it is already defined and the students are already selected. We will do a second edition, in 2021, and here yes, it will be great and a pleasure to incorporate your university in this project.
Best regards,
Maria Rodrigues.
