Universidade Federal do Amazonas (UFAM)
On July 3, 1964, during the 18th meeting of the Council of Directors of the Fundação Universidade do Amazonas, it was decided that the commemoration of the installation of the Universidade do Amazonas would also be the creation of the first Brazilian university, the Escola Universitária Livre de Manáos . The Universidade do Amazonas has been consolidated and expanded its structure by creating new courses and absorbing other already existing ones. As of 1968, the structure of the institution became the following: Faculty of Engineering of the Amazon, Faculty of Social Studies, Faculty of Philosophy, Sciences and Letters, Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Medicine and Faculty of Pharmacy and Dentistry. With most of its administrative and teaching units installed on the University Campus, UFAM currently offers 96 undergraduate and 39 post-graduation courses strictly in the sense of credentials for Capes. There are only 31 Mestrado and 8 Doutorado courses. At the Lato Sensu Post-Graduation level, there are more than 30 courses offered annually.
