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:
“The shift from the perception of the child as innocent to the perception of the child as competent has greatly increased the demands on contemporary children for maturity, for participating in competitive sports, for early academic achievement, and for protecting themselves against adults who might do them harm. While children might be able to cope with any one of those demands taken singly, taken together they often exceed children’s adaptive capacity.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
“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)
