The Electrical Engineering Graduate Program (PPGEE) started activities in 2011 with the aim of training human resources for teaching institutions, private companies, industry, and public agencies in order to promote social and economic development in the semi-arid region, especially in the State of Rio Grande do Norte.
International students can apply for PPGEE under the Exchange Program for Graduate Students (PEC-PG), supported by the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MRE), and the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq).
Students from developing countries with which Brazil maintains educational, cultural or scientific-technological agreement can apply for a scholarship under the call for applications announced every year in the program’s webpage. For information on dates and deadlines, scholarships and the list of eligible countries access http://www.capes.gov.br/cooperacao-internacional/multinacional/pec-pg (in Portuguese).
