The Cristo Rei School of Philosophy, Sciences and Literature was officially recognized in 1953. It was later named São Leopoldo School of Philosophy, Sciences and Literature. A century after its beginning, on July 31, 1969, the feast of Saint Ignatius of Loyola, Unisinos received official recognition as a university.〔(Unisinos - History )〕 It is part of a network of more than 200 Jesuit colleges and universities worldwide, with 2.2 million students.
