Academic Cooperation Agreements can be of two kinds: general and specific.

Some of the agreements already signed by UFPB may include general cooperation intents (as a general agreement), and specify the rules for undergraduate students’ mobility (as a specific agreement), all in one single document.

General Agreements – or Memorandums of Understanding – are those whose signatories agree to establish relations, setting the scope and fields of action, without determining, however, rules for developing the activities provided for.

In addition, general agreements may:

provide for activities respecting rules set out in one specific agreement
have several specific agreements bound to it, each with their own purpose

A Specific Agreement may be signed on a date later than that of the general agreement it is bound to. A specific agreement loses its validity if the general agreement it is bound to expires. Nevertheless, specific agreements usually determine that activities started before the expiration of the document may continue until they come to an end.

Signing a new General Agreement restores the validity of the Specific Agreement bound to it.

Important documents (in portuguese) to sign an agreement:

UFPB’s bylaws
UFPB’s rector's Instrument of Investiture, issued by the Brazilian Ministry of Education in November 2016
Law that created Universidade da Paraíba (1955)
Law that made Universidade da Paraíba a federal institution (1960)
