Increased Curriculum
In 2008, committed with the aim of expanding its presence in different areas of knowledge, the University opened the doors to the new faculty of natural sciences, with three new undergraduate programs: Biology, Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Chemistry and the Medicine program. That same year, the University welcomed the renewal for four years, the Quality Accreditation by the Ministry of National Education, the program of Systems Engineering, and began the process for renewal of accreditation program management. Similarly, the University continued to develop self-assessment processes for institutional accreditation and the Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences continued the process of accreditation that gives The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, AACSB International.

Famous quotes containing the words increased and/or curriculum:
“On the whole, my respect for my fellow-men, except as one may outweigh a million, is not being increased these days.... Such do not know that like the seed is the fruit, and that, in the moral world, when good seed is planted, good fruit is inevitable, and does not depend on our watering and cultivating; that when you plant, or bury, a hero in his field, a crop of heroes is sure to spring up. This is a seed of such force and vitality, that it does not ask our leave to germinate.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
