Most Similar Schools Locally

  • For students who like the agriculture, computer vision and engineering focus of this institution but want another option nearby, Federal Institute of Triângulo Mineiro fits well: it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and diploma programmes.
  • Both schools build their programmes around agriculture, computer vision and engineering, and Federal Institute of Rondônia is the one to compare first within the country, since it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and diploma programmes.
  • For students who like the agriculture and engineering focus of this institution but want another option nearby, Federal University of Mato Grosso fits well: it is slightly larger, at about 15,000 students against roughly 12,000 here, and is also a public institution.
  • Another national school that puts agriculture, computer vision and engineering at the centre is Federal Institute of Alagoas, and it is smaller, enrolling about 6,000 students against roughly 12,000 here, and is also a public institution.
  • For students who like the computer vision and engineering focus of this institution but want another option nearby, Federal Institute of Goiás fits well: it has almost the same size, at about 12,000 students, and is also a public institution.

Most Similar Schools Abroad

  • For agriculture and engineering outside the home country, Sunchon National University in South Korea is a natural reference; it is also a public institution and also offers doctoral programmes.
  • Kongju National University in South Korea is the nearest foreign match on agriculture and engineering; it also offers doctoral programmes, and has almost the same size, at about 12,000 students.
  • National University of Cuyo offers an international parallel to this school, with agriculture and engineering as common ground; it covers food science and industrial design as well, and is far larger, with about 45,000 students against roughly 12,000 here.
  • For agriculture, computer vision and engineering outside the home country, National University of the South in Argentina is a natural reference; it also offers doctoral programmes and covers marine science and chemistry as well.
  • University of Adelaide, based in Australia, is built around agriculture and engineering much like this institution, and it covers food science and chemistry as well, and is larger, enrolling about 30,279 students against roughly 12,000 here.

*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”,  “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.

 

**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale: 

  1. known locally
  2. known locally and internationally
  3. is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
  4. is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications

***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
