FLORES, Andressa Bones; COSTA, Janaina Pamplona da  and  FONTOLAN, Marina. Internationalizing postgraduate studies in Brazil: the experience of a Overseas PhD and PhD Exchange Research Grants. Avaliação (Campinas) [online]. 2023, vol.28, e023028.  Epub Nov 24, 2023. ISSN 1982-5765.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1414-40772023000100046.

This paper systematically reviews two distinct types of PhD research grants in Brazil: Overseas PhD and PhD Exchange Research Grants. The research method employed is a historical analysis. The former enables students to pursue their entire PhD studies abroad, while the latter necessitates students to be enrolled in a Brazilian graduate program and spend a portion of their PhD course overseas for research purposes. The paper begins with a historical overview of graduate programs in Brazil and subsequently delves into a comprehensive examination of the two grant types. This examination includes a historical perspective on their development as well as an exploration of current discussions surrounding them. The paper concludes that the lack of data systematization and discourse on these research grants hinders the analysis of their impact on the field of national science.

Keywords : postgraduate courses in Brazil; research grants; CAPES.
