CAPES/PRINT

In terms of internationalization, PPGEAL attracts foreign candidates and its faculty members actively participate in the international scientific community. To enhance this engagement, the Program participates in three CAPES/PRINT/UFSC projects, which contribute to expanding PPGEAL’s international reach and further strengthen the partnerships included in the proposal. An important outcome of this effort is the possibility of offering courses in foreign languages and increasing funding and strategic projects with international partners.

SANDWICH DOCTORAL PROGRAM ABROAD

A common practice among PPGEAL students is to pursue complementary academic training through a sandwich doctoral program abroad. These international partnerships have been systematically encouraged by the program through several actions, including the provision of sandwich scholarships – both through previous PADCT projects and through international cooperation projects such as CAPES/PRINT – and by ensuring that the student’s scholarship is maintained upon their return.

The exposure to successful experiences abroad has inspired students to pursue these international training opportunities.

Alongside sandwich doctoral activities, our partnerships have also aimed to establish double degree agreements, in accordance with the cooperation agreements signed by UFSC, listed on the UFSC Office of International Relations website: Office of International Relations.

COURSES TAUGHT BY INTERNATIONAL FACULTY

Student training has also been enhanced by the increasing number of special topics courses offered by researchers from partner international institutions, who contribute to PPGEAL through collaborative projects.

THESES AND DISSERTATIONS WRITTEN OR DEFENDED IN ENGLISH

Another highly relevant aspect that underscores PPGEAL’s internationalization and strengthens the training of its students is the growing number of dissertations and theses written or defended in English.
