Teaching Support Programme (PAD)
The Teaching Support Programme (PAD) implemented through Resolution GR-49/2007, is a scholarship programme designed exclusively for undergraduate students duly enrolled at UNICAMP. The PAD is entrusted to the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Studies (PRG) and is managed by the PAD Coordinating Commission. The activities are geared to improving the teaching of undergraduate studies through monitoring conducted by students and should be supervised by the professor in charge of the discipline.

Scientific Initiation (IC)
Scientific Initiation (IC) is always associated with a professor from UNICAMP. The Graduation Coordination Office does not intermediate scholarships, the student is required to find a professor who is willing to be his/her advisor. An application for a scholarship should always be submitted with a research plan to be developed during the scholarship period, signed by both the advisor-professor and the student. The student should submit the monitoring reports requested by the financing agency throughout the scholarship period. This type of assistance features the most options:
- The student may, through a professor, apply to development institutions (CNPq, FAPESP, among others) for a scholarship, not associated with UNICAMP in this case.
- The student may apply for one of the research scholarships awarded by the Student Support Service (SAE), where the selection criteria are based largely on the student´s performance.
- The student may apply for one of the scholarships awarded by the Institutional Programme for Scientific Initiation Scholarships (PIBIC) coordinated by the Office of the Dean of Research (PRP), where the selection criteria are based on the student´s academic performance.

Social Scholarships
The scholarships are intended for undergraduate and postgraduate students at UNICAMP who have financial difficulties to guarantee their stay at the university. This aid aims to prevent students from dropping out, especially those who need financial support and who, due to their academic activities, have limited hours.
All undergraduate students who are regularly enrolled can apply for all types of grants. Postgraduate students can only apply for the Transport and Food grants.
