In 1965, the faculties of Medical Sciences of Pernambuco (founded in 1950), Dentistry of Pernambuco (1955), Sciences of the Administration of Pernambuco (1965) joined forces with the Polytechnic School of Pernambuco (1912) to form the initial nucleus of the "Pernambuco Higher Education Foundation - FESP", which became, at the beginning of the 1990s, into the "University of Pernambuco", acquiring public character and assuming its social role.
In addition, the School of Physical Education (founded in 1946) and the Faculty of Teacher Training of Garanhuns (1966), of Nazaré da Mata (1966) and of Petrolina (1968) joined the University of Pernambuco.
