Social Impact Actions
The Postgraduate Program in Language Studies has embraced its commitment to social inclusion since its inception, through affirmative action policies, as well as research and extension projects that seek to contribute to society—whether through the training and qualification of human resources or by addressing real problems in the external community of the university. These actions promote social, scientific, and cultural impacts through the social integration of Extension Projects and Programs in the Concentration Area—Interdisciplinary Language Studies, in connection with its research lines:
- Line 1 – Linguistic, textual, discursive, and enunciative analyses
- Line 2 – Literary, cultural, and historical analyses

- Scholarship management for Social Demand (DS) and Academic Excellence (PROEX) for UFRPE postgraduate students.
