On March 25, 1964, by means of State Decree nº 187, published in the Official Gazette of the State of April 4 of the same year, the Faculty of Law (State Law nº 15, of September 8, 1964) was born. Then it was recognized by Opinion No. 660, of September 4, 1970, of the Federal Council of Education, and by Presidential Decree No. 67,534, of November 11, 1970.

In 1968, the Faculty of Economic Sciences was created. Then came the courses in Literature, Pedagogy, Mathematics (full degree) and Social Studies (short duration). Thus, on March 3, 1970, the Centro Universitário do Acre became official, bringing together these five courses.

The University Center of Acre became University of Acre on January 22, 1971, under the Foundation regime, being integrated by the Faculties of Law and Economic Sciences. The federalization of the University of Acre took place on April 5, 1974, through Law No. 6,025.
