SE-NO-BR - Software Engineering Practices and Experiences Exchange between Norway and Brazil
SENOBR
Software Engineering Practices and Experiences Exchange between Norway and Brazil
SENOBR
This project aims to promote excellence in Software Engineering practice by linking high-quality research and education of future researchers from Norway and Brazil. To achieve this goal, this UTFORSK project is structured to promote student and staff exchange, internationalization of education, research cooperation and joint seminars to allow young researchers to discuss their work with international scientists.
We will have a new mobility try to NORWAY in the end of May! We will visit Tromsø and Trondheim. We will receive 8 students and 4 professors from Brazil. This trip is target to Brazilian Students in the partner universities. In these weeks we will focus on software security, software sustainability, gender and diversity in software development. First the vistors will visit Trondheim and then Tromsø.
MOBILITY TRIP TO BRAZIL 2024
In April 7 students and Two staff will visit to Porto Alegre and Curitiba for new Mobility Trip. The focus this time will be sustainable software development and extended reality environments. This trip is target to Norwegian Students in the partner universities.
We had a visit to a city called Trondheim, the trip happened from 15-30th of September and we received 9 students and 4 professors from Brazil. This trip is target to Brazilian Students in the partner universities. In these weeks we focused on software engineering and software security, UX design and sustainability goals. First the students went to ESEM conference in Finland, get to know more of the Nordic software development process culture. Then a week in Trondheim with an exciting program!
MOBILITY TRIP TO BRAZIL 2022
We had a visit to a city named Curitiba, the trip happened from October and we sent 7 students from NTNU to Brazil. This trip is target to Norwegian Students from NTNU. In these weeks we focused on software engineering and software security, UX design and sustainability goals. First the students went to Sao Paulo where they visited some local software companies and then to Curitiba where they visited PUCPR and local companies.
MOBILITY TRIP TO NORWAY 2023
We had a visit to Trondheim, the trip happened in September and we received 8 students and 4 professors from Brazil. This trip is target to Brazilian Students in the partner universities. In these weeks we focused on software engineering and software security, sustainability goals and gender. First the students went to NTNU and then to the ACM Womencourage conference, get to know more of the Nordic software development process culture.
MOBILITY TRIP TO BRAZIL 2023
We had a visit to a city named Manaus, the trip happened from April and we sent 7 students from NTNU to Brazil. This trip is target to Norwegian Students from NTNU. In these weeks we focused on gender.

Why this project?
Why this project?
Norway has a growing demand for IT professionals, projected to outgrow the educational production to an estimated shortage of 10.000 professionals by 2030. Similar trends are documented elsewhere, as in the EU and US. In Brazil, the deficit can reach 70.000 by 2024. The Digital Agenda for Norway and Digital Agenda for Europe call for more and better candidates from IT studies. This project is a response to this acute need.
Software permeates all aspects of society. In tomorrow's digital, automated, and globally connected society, software will be of even larger importance for solving global challenges. Software engineering is the research field that focuses on establishing new knowledge on key factors for the successful development of some of the most complex systems developed by humans.
No country alone will be able to fulfil the demands. The workforce needs to be prepared to understand the cultural, technical and social aspects that the process of developing software have to address, which goes beyond only the programming activities.
More About the Project
Criteria for the Mobility Program
Applications to the mobility activities will be accepted at anytime. And there will be specific deadlines for each mobility activities. Mobility activities will happen every year. There will be mobility activities from Brazil to Norway and from Norway to Brazil. The students from the originating country will be eligible to the mobility activities originating from that country.
To qualify to participate in the mobility activities the applicant must be:
The applicant must be a undergrad or master student in one of the universities from the project: NTNU, UFAM, PUC-RS, PUC-PR;
The applicant must be active on participating and contributing to the different activities in the project, workshops, courses, training, collaboration with companies.
The applicant must have taken one or more courses of the ones in the course or be enrolled in one of the courses.
The applications are evaluated by the professors from SENOBR project. The details, duration, focus, timeline and other details for each mobility activity will be published in the SENOBR website and in an advance of minimum 3 months before the date of the mobility activity.
EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES
SENOBRis committed to ensuring equal opportunities and promoting diversity. People within the SENOBR activities are not discriminated against by race, colour, religion, gender, national origin, age, marital status or disability.
