PhD Cheap by University of Brazil, Campinas

(01-29-2025, 11:50 PM)cahyo_adi Wrote: Hello everyone, 

I am looking for information regarding University of Brazil, Campinas (Unibraz). On their website, they claim to be accredited: Unibraz Accreditation Page. However, I would like to verify whether this university is officially recognized by the Brazilian Ministry of Education (MEC) or not.

The reason for my inquiry is that their PhD programs are extremely affordable, as seen on this page: Unibraz PhD Programs. Given the low cost, I want to ensure that their accreditation is legitimate.
Does anyone have experience with this university or any official confirmation regarding its recognition?
Any insights or information would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance

Hello, I'm Brazilian and I have never heard of this institution. Besides:

1) They don't have a website in Portuguese;
2) All faculty is foreign, apparently;
3) Photos in the website seem to be AI generated;
4) They say they are accredited, but the image they show is only a protocol and I couldn't find anything in the Ministry of Education website (EMEC);
5) The company do exist, but it is a small company registered in the name of Victor Chinoyerem Nwadike. I googled his name and found he was hired by the city of Campinas in a modest position (Foreign Trade Assistant in a local university) 5 years ago (https://portal-api.campinas.sp.gov.br/si...208385.pdf). 
6) Accreditation in Brazil is costly and bureaucratic. Its unlikely this guy would have the resources to afford it, considering the job he was hired;
7) There are no online PhD or Master's in Brazil by private institutions and only one very specific program in a public university;
8) Online bachelor's do exist, but they usually require at least one in-person activity per semester. 
9) There are online "MBA's" here, but MBA's in Brazil are usually only branding, they are actually like a proprio (we call it lato senso);

Google also links his name to an official document stating his naturalization in Brazil was denied because he couldn't provide the documents required in the process. It is impossible that he would be able to navigate the accreditation process when he could not deal with his naturalization procedure, which is much less bureaucratic. 

This is a SCAM, without a doubt.

This is where the "University" seems to be located:
