Escola de Enfermagem da USP

What Escola de Enfermagem da USP does

Escola de Enfermagem da USP (EEUSP) is the nursing school of the University of São Paulo (USP), a Brazilian public university founded in 1942 and headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil. EEUSP delivers comprehensive nursing education across three pillars: undergraduate programs (Bacharelado and Licenciatura), postgraduate academic programs (Master's and doctoral, including inter-unit programs with the USP Ribeirão Preto School of Nursing), and professional residence programs. It operates four academic departments — ENC (Enfermagem Médico-Cirúrgica), ENP (Enfermagem Materno-Infantil e Psiquiátrica), ENS (Enfermagem em Saúde Coletiva), and ENO (Enfermagem em Orientação Profissional) — alongside specialized units including CELAB (teaching, skills, simulation and research laboratories), REEUSP (a SciELO-indexed scientific journal), CHCEIA (Ibero-American Nursing Historical-Cultural Center), and the hosted JBI Brasil chapter of the Joanna Briggs Institute.

EEUSP is an integral part of USP and operates as a state entity under the Brazilian public higher-education system; it does not charge tuition for undergraduate programs and is funded primarily through government allocation and research grants (notably FAPESP). As a non-commercial public institution, it has no disclosed revenue and no commercial pricing model; revenue mechanics are budgetary rather than transactional. Its primary customer segments are higher-education students, healthcare professionals seeking continuing education and AHA-certified training (through its International Training Center designation), and academic researchers. Distribution occurs through direct campus enrollment in São Paulo, free extension courses, on-campus events, and digital channels including its institutional website, social media (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, X, LinkedIn), and email newsletter.

EEUSP holds partnerships with the American Heart Association (AHA International Training Center), universities in the United Kingdom for academic exchange, and hosts JBI Brasil for evidence-based healthcare. It does not operate as a technology product company; its technology footprint is limited to standard institutional IT, a simulation laboratory, and an academic journal platform. Leadership is structured around a President and Vice-President (Antônio Fernandes Costa Lima and Divane de Vargas, term 2023–2025) plus departmental and congregational representatives.
