Most Similar Schools Locally
- Both schools build their programmes around agriculture, food science and engineering, and Federal Institute Sertão Pernambucano is the one to compare first within the country, since it is also a public institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's, master's and diploma.
- Where this school leans on agriculture, food science and engineering, Federal Institute Farroupilha does the same, and it is also a public institution, and runs the same bachelor's, master's and diploma programmes.

*: 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:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- 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 …).
