On this page there are Research Groups (GPs) whose leaders are FEA-RP teachers. These are GPs certified together with the Directory of Research Groups of CNPq - DGP / CNPq (http://lattes.cnpq.br/web/dgp/home), a list of scientific and technological research groups in activities in Brazil . Make sure with the certification of the existence of the permanent search. It is possible that there are other GPs led by FEA-RP teachers who are not on the list and therefore we recommend that, in case of doubt, the interested party could access the DGP / CNPq or contact: This email address is being protected from spambots.

With a length period of at least six months and up to two years, the FEA-RP/USP Post-Doctorate Program is a research activity for PhD holders, the program of which is likely to be developed in the following modalities:
Please, find below the request forms. In addition to the research project, a work plan must be presented, describing how the post-doc student will enter FEA-RP. In general, the basic activity consists in developing the post-doc research as contemplated in the project; however, this activity can be extrapolated, for example, by helping with the editorship of the department journal, advising scientific-initiation students through the PIBIC, lecturing, mini-programs, and some.

ONGOING PROJECT
Effective from August 1st, 2012, to July 31st, 2013.
Modality of Project
Negotiation and Cooperation for Fostering Local Development under a Systemic Perspective: a multi-case study in local productive arrangements of the states of Minas Gerais and São Paulo.
FEA-RP has several students who receive scholarships for study and research under the expert guidance of professors. Among these, there are grants funded by the National Council of Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) and the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education (CAPES), others funded directly by an internal program of the institution and there are also scholarships financed by other agencies. Therefore, support for research is of fundamental importance for FEA-RP and the formation of its students.
The research activities are a main part of teaching activities at FEA-RP. Among the various research projects in areas of economics, finance, marketing, negotiation, economic history, organizations economics, economic development, production management, cooperatives, labor economics, accounting, social accounting, human resources, econometrics, macro and microeconomics, highlights some that involve groups of professors, different departments and funding agencies to support research. All projects are consolidated.
FEA-RP´s Research lines
The regular undergraduate student can only request equivalence of subjects attended in high-education institutions other than USP in two occasions: when enrolling after having been approved through FUVEST (university entrance exam) on a date fixed into the Applicant’s Guide; or when enrolling after having entered through the External Transfer Process. Except for these two occasions, the applicant is not allowed to request equivalence of subjects attended in high-education institutions other than USP.
Lately, FEA-RP has not been offering openings for special students for lack of physical space. Eventually, after new rooms have been thoroughly built, FEA-RP will attend to these students again; however, there is no knowing when this will happen.
Nowadays, to be nation-wide valid, the graduate diploma must be revalidated by a Brazilian public university that offers a government-recognized equal or similar program.
Information referring to Brazilian legislation concerning recognition of foreign diplomas can be found in this site of the Ministry of Education and Culture of Brazil
The University of São Paulo (USP) is empowered to revalidate foreign diplomas. For further information, please, click here.
The general aim of the Graduate Program in Economics of FEA-RP/USP is to qualify human resources for working in applied economics. Such general objective is unfolded in the following specific goals:
Started in 2004, the program grants scholarships with the support of fostering agencies such as CAPES (High-Education Personnel Improvement Coordination) and CNPq (National Council for Scientific andTechnological Development). The team of professors follows two research lines:
Investigators are involved in issues like income inequality, poverty, and public policies of redistributive and/or compensatory features such as Education, Health, and Social Security, aiming to diagnose the major Brazilian social issues, identify their determinants, and evaluate the public policies designed for upgrading the social picture.
This line searches for understanding the international, national, and regional development paths, which motivates the formulation of public policies so as to accelerate development. It considers the role of technological innovation, efficiency, and human capital, as well as their determinants: institutions, commercial relations between countries and regions, financing tools, natural resources, climatic changes, and some.

General View of the Program
The program is committed to promote professors, researchers, and highly-qualified professionals so as to meet the academic and scientific demands of public and private organizations. Therefore, our Master’s and Doctoral programs are designed for Research Projects, which are joint research initiatives of professors and students to reply to certain social issues in an economically relevant manner. From the beginning, the students shall count on his/her advisor’s support and cooperation, seeking the structuration and objectives of his/her research.
Master’s
Officially, Master’s starts in February or March with an estimate 24-month length period till conclusion. During this period, the students will attend 5 to 7 subjects, including Financing Accounting, Controlling, Finances, Theory of Accounting and Controlling, Quantitative Methodology and Methods; however, part of these subjects can be replaced by articles published in magazines or congresses. In general, in the middle of the program, between the 10th and 12th months, the student will undergo a qualification exam, during which he will have to present and debate his on-going research project. To apply for this exam, the students must accomplish a minimum number of credits; have his preliminary project approved in the “Seminários de Dissertações” (Seminars of Theses, formerly called “Fórum de Projetos de Pesquisa”, or Forum of Research Projects); and be approved in the Specific-Content Exam (about the compulsory subjects attended); furthermore, a proven English reading capacity is required.
At the end of the program, the research carried out will be presented in a publishing-potential article format, and a duplicate in a thesis-format version.
In-depth information can be viewed in the “Manual do Ingressante Mestrado 2012” (The Incoming-Student’s Guide Master’s 2012).
Please, refer to the rules for Master’s in: Specific Rules Program of Accounting FEA-RP.
Doctorate Studies
Doctorate Studies start in August, with an estimate 48-month length period till completion. The “sandwich” doctorate is strongly encouraged, in which the student will attend three general compulsory subjects and one compulsory research-line subject; moreover, should the student’s Doctorate not be in Accounting, he/she should attend optional subjects together with the Master’s in the first semester of the program. Still, the student will be able to choose Optional Subjects offered by the Research Groups of the program to be developed within the theme of his/her research, and he must go through a qualification exam showing specific knowledge about the project.
To apply for this exam the student must accomplish a minimum number of credits; have his/her preliminary project approved in the “Seminars of Theses”; and be approved in the Specific Content Exam (about the compulsory subjects attended). If the student should be approved for the “sandwich” program, then, he/she can request exemption of the Specific Content Exam; furthermore, a proven English reading capacity is required, and a proven English reading and writing capacity is desired.
When the program is completed, it is expected that the research, carried out and presented in a publishing-potential article format and a duplicate in a thesis-format version, should demonstrate research capacity, and leadership and idea-exposure abilities.
