Selection Process and Course Operation
The selection of candidates registered for the Master's Degree is made by a committee of professors with a student representative and the classification process is the result of the analysis of the candidate's documentation (curriculum vitae and academic record, in addition to other documents requested). The master's course has a regulatory duration of two years, with the first year dedicated to the student's training and the second to carrying out research and writing the dissertation. The definition of the master's theme and the advisor takes place throughout the first year of activities as students acquire the minimum training required for research work. Students newly enrolled in the course will have an academic advisor, temporary and defined by PPGEEL, who will help them choose the subjects to be studied until they define their respective master's topics and definitive advisors.
Scholarships
The program currently has around 70 master's scholarships. Part of them will be allocated to students who enter the program at the beginning of the year, and obtain the best classifications in the selection process. The remaining scholarships will be allocated to students with the best academic performance, as ongoing dissertations are completed.
