PPGMAT - UFES
The Graduate Program in Mathematics (PPGMAT) at the Federal University of Espírito Santo (UFES) is the only academic postgraduate program in mathematics in the state. With a crucial strategic role, PPGMAT significantly contributes to regional development, directly impacting the training of qualified human resources. Founded in 2006, the program offers a solid structure for teaching and research, recognized for its excellence in training master's students who continue in renowned doctoral programs in Brazil and abroad or who teach at various public and private institutions.
Since the inauguration of its new headquarters in 2018, PPGMAT has a modern infrastructure that includes offices for all faculty members, exclusive rooms for students, a library with a large collection in Mathematics, and an auditorium for seminars and defenses. The program also has two research laboratories, as well as support provided by the Computational Mathematics and Informatics Laboratory (LIMC) of the Mathematics Department and the Informatics Laboratory of the Center for Exact Sciences (LCEx). All these resources, integrated into the eduroam educational network, provide a conducive environment for research and academic development in the field of mathematics.
Normative Act: Approved by the CNE (MEC Ordinance 609, dated 03/14/2019, DOU 03/18/2019).
