Summary: Internationalization has been a growing concern of Brazilian Higher Education
Institutions, especially because of the presence of foreign students in various
universities. The objective of this research is to assess the perception of the
student experience in the Undergraduate Agreement Student Program (PECG),
including former and current students enrolled in the first semester of 2018,
in the Federal University of Espírito Santo. PEC-G is a student mobility program
developed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Education of
Brazil, to be an instrument of educational cooperation among the Brazilian
government and some developing countries, especially those in Africa, Latin
America, the Caribbean, and Asia. The papers referring to PEC-G theme,
mainly the 7948/2013 Decree, which regulates the Program, were used here as
theory basis. The methodology consisted of data collection about the Program
in Ufes, semi structured interview with students who have active enrollment in
the Program in the first semester of 2018, as well as a semi open questionnaire
with former students. This research was carried out in order to assess the
experiences of PEC-G students since their registration to participate in the
Program until their undergraduate degree completion. Through the information
gathered plus the experience reports of former and current students in the
Program, a guidance proposal was created to the students interested in
pursuing a degree in Ufes through the PEC-G Program.
