PRESENTATION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Post-Graduate Program in Collective Health (PPGSC, in Portuguese) from Universidade Estadual de  Londrina (UEL) was founded in 1990, with the Master\u2019s Degree in Collective Health. At the time, there were only eight post-graduate courses (stricto sensu) in the field of Collective Health in Brazil, and none in the South of the country. The program arose in the context of major intellectual fervor in Collective Health and of important social movements, such as the 8th<\/sup> National Health Conference and the 1st<\/sup> National Human Resources Conference, held in 1986, along with the inclusion of the right to access to health set forth in the Brazilian Constitution of 1988, which culminated in the legislation that would establish the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, the program currently offers the Academic Master\u2019s of Science Degree (M.S.), with openings announced every two years, and the Doctoral Degree (Ph.D.), with annual openings, both available to candidates with a higher education degree in any field of knowledge and who are interested in developing scientific research in the field of Collective Health. The two lines of research that are currently available are quite comprehensive, focused on the areas of Epidemiology (quantitative studies) and Health Planning and Management (qualitative or quantitative studies). The two lines are as follows: 1) Analysis of the living and health conditions of population groups and 2) Evaluation, work management, and health education. PPGSC is ranked as a level 4 (four) quality, according to the CAPES assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The entire faculty of PPGSC has experience in research in Collective Health, with expertise in some specific areas. Some of PPGSC\u2019s main research projects are developed in collaboration with researchers from other renowned national and international institutions. More than 200 Master\u2019s and Doctoral students have completed their studies in the program, together with a wide range of undergraduate scientific initiation students from UEL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PPGSC aims to promote the academic skills and qualification of the faculty, researchers, and professionals from a variety of professions that work in the field of Collective Health, through the expansion and dissemination of knowledge from this field, thereby contributing to the development of both Collective Health itself and SUS. It also seeks, through their products\/services and processes, to contribute to the development of communities, mainly from the city of Londrina, the state of Paran\u00e1, and the surrounding region, including other states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
