- Have at least one student (masters or doctorate) approved in the selection process.
- Propose a course (with duration, program and bibliography) to be offered annually to PPGBBE students.
- Not belong to another Graduate Program.
- Have at least 600 points * in scientific production in the previous four years (2015-2018 or 2016-2019) (of those at least 50% of the points must be as first/senior author).
Eligibility Process for Faculty
The (re)eligibility certificate application is necessary for all faculty members at the end of a four year period of CAPES’ evaluation. The last process took place in December 2016 for the 2017-2020 period and the next will be held at the end of 2020 that will be valid for the 2021-2024 period.
That process required that the faculty member:
