Faculdade Presbiteriana Mackenzie Brasília

What Faculdade Presbiteriana Mackenzie Brasília does

Faculdade Presbiteriana Mackenzie Brasília (FPMB) is a private higher education institution located in the Asa Sul neighborhood of Brasília, Federal District, Brazil. It was established circa 2017 as the Brasília campus of Instituto Presbiteriano Mackenzie, a Brazilian educational organization with a 150+ year institutional history. FPMB offers undergraduate programs in Law, Administration, Accounting, and Civil Engineering, alongside graduate-level programs including an LLM (Master of Laws), MBA tracks, and a portfolio of short-duration extension courses in specialized legal and business subjects. The institution also operates as a presencial hub within the broader Mackenzie distance learning (EaD) network for the Federal District, channeling online enrolment to on-ground programs.

The institution's core technology stack centers on a standard learning management system (Moodle-based), a digital certificate issuance platform, and an electronic document repository. There is no evidence of proprietary AI, data, or platform technology; the institution operates on conventional EdTech infrastructure common to Brazilian private colleges. Curriculum is delivered by a faculty that includes high-profile guest lecturers, such as sitting Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes and former Attorney-General André Mendonça, which functions as a reputational lever for the law programs.

FPMB generates revenue primarily through tuition and fees paid by individual students enrolled in undergraduate, graduate, and extension programs, with a secondary revenue stream from distance learning (EaD) participation within the wider Mackenzie network. The customer base is composed of long-tail individual students — typically prospective and working professionals in the Federal District and surrounding region — rather than enterprise or institutional buyers. The institution does not pursue external funding or capital raises; it operates as a unit within the nonprofit Instituto Presbiteriano Mackenzie, which provides institutional, financial, and brand backing.
