Presentation

The graduate program in Mathematical Modeling (PPGMMat for its spelling in Portuguese) started its activities in 2013. It aims to train highly qualified professionals to develop teaching, research and extension activities to meet significant demand in the formation of human resources in Brazil and other Mercosur countries.

PPGMMat currently has three possible concentrations (Transport Phenomena, Optimization and Control, Numerical Modeling of Atmospheric Processes) and four lines of research (Modeling of Dispersion of Pollutants, Modeling of Neutral Particle Transport, Optimization and Control, Numerical Modeling of Atmospheric Processes).

The admissions process takes place every year. Students earn a degree upon completing 24 credits in courses, 3 of which are mandatory.
