Description

The Centre of International Relations was established in 2008 and, six years later, became a Department at Federal University of Sergipe (UFS) which, currently, brings together more than ten full-time professors. Nowadays, DRI has two main research agendas: Security and Defense; and Integration and Development. In addition, we are facing since 2018 a curricular reformulation process, because the graduation course is increasingly focused on issues involving Latin America region. Finally, it is important to say that UFS is the biggest university of Sergipe and the state has just one International Relations Program located at DRI.
