The University - general information

Mission

Unesc’s mission is "to educate through teaching, research and extension programs, in order to promote the quality and sustainability of our environment".

Future vision

We strive to always be recognized as a University with excellence in professional training and excellence in teaching professional ethics to our citizens. While building scientific and technological knowledge we are forever committed to the social and environmental aspects of our mission.

History

In a plenary session on June 17th, 1997, the State Board of Education approved the transformation of Unifacri (Union of Colleges of Criciúma) into Unesc. As a mission, Unesc has defined: "promoting regional development to improve the environmental quality of life", having Fucri as its maintainer.

Management

The management promoted by the rector of Unesc, Gildo Volpato - elected in 2009 by the academic community - has two principles: (1) excellence in teaching, research and extension programs, and (2) shared management that is participatory and decentralized. 

Research

Unesc believes that the research itself is a dimension of the University and the institution loses its meaning without it. Five major areas are encompassed in the research developed at Unesc: Biological Sciences, Health Sciences, Math and Earth Sciences, Humanities and Applied Social Sciences.

Extension Programs

Permanent projects develop extension activities for Unesc ‘s Academic Departments. These stimulate the academics and ensure that the institution remains relevant to the current market demands of our community. In addition to sports and cultural activities, Unesc offers 16 extension courses.

CAP

Harboring CAP Elementary and High School students within the university complex, provides these students access to the vast infrastructure of our institution. Additionally, exposing these students to a healthy variety of culture, sports and science. Among the many resources available to these students, they also have free access to Unesc's library, laboratories and the entire sports complex.

IPARQUE

In UNESC’s communitarian world, there is space for innovation that benefits people. In this world, focused on social upwardness there is room for encouragement of research and knowledge, for multi-faceted ideas, for intelligence that makes life better. In UNESC’s communitarian way of thinking there is a special place for the word integration. Integration that means bringing people together, adding and sharing. The Iparque begins with these values: innovation, incentive, ideas, intelligence and integration to ward community service. In the Iparque, UNESC maintains four different institutes and a business program which comprise several innovation areas. These institutes and the incubator support and integrate projects installed within the Iparque.
