The Federal Rural University of Pernambuco (Portuguese: Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco, UFRPE) is a public university in Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil. Specializing in courses in agricultural sciences and other courses relating to rural development, the university also conducts research in these areas. However, in recent years the university has also added a variety of courses focused less on rural topics.
The main campus is in the state capital of Recife, while smaller campuses are in Serra Talhada, Belo Jardim, and Cabo de Santo Agostinho. The former campus at Garanhuns was split in 2018 into the separate Universidade Federal do Agreste de Pernambuco. UFRPE was ranked by Folha de São Paulo as 64th nationally in 2019.
