Tuck Brazil Ambassador Program
Tuck hosts many events during the year, in which we have the opportunity to meet new and old friends and also learn about other cultures. Here, we really take advantage of the diversity of countries represented by the students and have the opportunity to show some of our culture too. Besides the traditional events, we can always come up with a new idea… and another party.
Stay tuned for upcoming events to be posted here.

The international party is a party in which
international students make a typical drink
of their countries to give their peers a taste
of their culture. We always bring the
Caipirinha and our table is very popular!
Country chats
In Country Chats, International students have a chance to talk about their country’s history, economy or culture. You pick the subject and make an informative presentation to your peers.

This is a very fun party. Lots of dance, latin music and drinks.
