Sociology
Sociology (Master's and Doctoral Degrees)
Program Description
The UnB Graduate Program in Sociology (PPGSOL) was founded in 1970, initially only with the Master's degree. The doctoral program, in turn, started its activities in 1984. As the first graduate program in the humanities of the Federal District to this day, we are involved not only with the training of personnel for all levels of the federal administration, both in the executive and legislative branches, but also in the direct participation in the design, implementation and evaluation of public policies. It is also important to highlight our role in training staff from foreign countries, especially for Portuguese-speaking Africa (Mozambique and Cape Verde) and Latin American countries (notably Argentina and Colombia, over the last three years), through the continuous influx of applications via PEC-PG of the Brazilian Federal Agency for Post-graduate Education (CAPES).
PPGSOL aims to: train masters and doctors to work in higher education research and teaching; train masters and doctors to work in the formulation, implementation and evaluation of public policies at the various levels of government; and promote the development of high-level scientific research by integrating research and undergraduate and postgraduate teaching in groups and research labs.
