“Pookie-Purr in Kr-uh-CHEE-buh”

The American Academy (AA) is a dual-enrollment program offered jointly by 5X and the Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná (PUCPR), located in Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil.

Curitiba is pronounced “Kr-uh-CHEE-buh” and PUCPR is called “Pookie-Purr” or just “Pookie,” for short.

February 13-17 is I Heart Travel Week at Kent State, celebrating Kent State's Education Abroad Program with fun and informative activities each day.  View the event schedule here.

PUCPR - Kent State's academic partner in Brazil.
