Study in the Heart of the City

An exciting new partnership

Hult is partnering with Fundação Dom Cabral (FDC) to offer students the chance to rotate to São Paulo, Brazil for Module D of their studies. FDC is one of the leading business schools in Brazil and will provide teaching facilities and visa sponsorships, and its distinguished faculty will teach a specially designed elective on Brazilian and Latin American commerce and economics. Students will also have the chance to learn the local lingo, as beginner Portuguese classes will be offered to all rotating students.

Prime downtown location

Hult’s rotation center is located at FDC’s downtown São Paulo campus, on the Avenida Doutor Cardoso de Melo in the Vila Olímpia district. This is FDC’s executive education campus, educating managers from around the globe. (FDC’s primary campus is located outside Belo Horizonte, Brazil’s third-largest city, some 600 km from São Paulo.) Vila Olímpia is a modern, upper-class neighborhood and is home to the regional HQs of several multinationals, including Google. The area is also well known for its nightlife.

Discover the vibrancy of São Paulo

A range of extra-curricular activities will be organized to help students discover all that Brazilian culture has to offer. Events will include visits to local and regional multinational companies, museum tours, including the Museum of Modern Art of São Paulo, shopping excursions on the Rua Oscar Freire and Rua 25 de Março, and outings to São Paulo’s and the Vila Olímpia’s many fantastic restaurants and nightspots.

Supportive environment

Hult will provide a range of Student Support Services at the Rotation Center, due to size restrictions these will, however, not be as broad as those offered at Hult’s home campuses. During students’ first few days in São Paulo, FDC’s faculty will provide an orientation session on life in Brazil to help students negotiate daily life and make the most out of their time in this dynamic city.
