The University of Araraquara (UNIARA), is a private, non-profit, co-educational university located in the city of Araraquara in the state of São Paulo, Brazil.
History
The creation of the Associação São Bento de Ensino (ASBE) in 1968 set the stage to transform higher education in Araraquara and its region. That year, the Ministry of Education (MEC) approved the creation of a Faculty of Economic and Administrative Sciences. In 1970, a Faculty of Law was authorized and, in 1971, the Faculty of Education (which in 1974 would become the Faculty of Education and Social Studies). Faced with this expansion, the Federation of Isolated Colleges of Araraquara (Fefiara) was founded in 1972, to begin to bring together the existing faculties. In 1997, the Federation achieved accreditation as a University Centre. In 2016, the Araraquara University Centre was transformed into the University of Araraquara by ministerial order no. 612, dated 07/15/2016. Teaching is now carried out at several locations within the city.[1][2][3][4]
