CHARACTERISTICS AND OBJECTIVES

CEBRAP’s International Postdoctoral Program (IPP) is now receiving application from doctors with a Ph.D. in anthropology, political science, demography, law, economics, philosophy, history, and sociology, and whose research interests are aligned with those of CEBRAP’s research groups – https://cebrap.org.br/nucleos/

The program is meant to complement the training of doctors by providing them with an interdisciplinary experience and thus enabling them to tackle research topics beyond the boundaries of the fields in which they have been trained. The program also expects that an international group of doctors will allow for a comparative framework in researched topics. As a result, CEBRAP hopes to provide scholars with a broader view of the major issues in our contemporary societies.

The post-doctoral program began in 2016 and draws on CEBRAP’s successful previous experience, the Cadre Training Program (1986-2002), which later changed into the Postdoctoral Program (2003-2007), in which 116 young researchers took part. Their success is attested by the large number of both programs’ researchers having achieved prominent positions at Brazilian universities and other institutions.

The IPP is in its sixth class (2017-2022). It currently has 20 postdoctoral researchers conducting research in Brazil or at international institutions. To learn more about their work in progress and about how to apply, we invite you to visit the program’s website: https://cebrap.org.br/ipp/
