RESEARCH
Accredited by Brazil’s National Agency of Oil, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP): The Brazilian Law for Oil and Gas (Law 9.478/1997) determines that one share of oil and gas exploration resources must be allocated to Research and Development (R&D) by the companies involved.

Only ANP-accredited educational and research institutions can receive such resources by means of specific projects. UniSantos is the only accredited university in its metropolitan area due to its scientific and technological facilities and its Institute of Scientific Research and Technology (IPECI).
