Qualification Committees

Students must enroll in the “Qualification Exam” (“Exame de Qualificação”) course during the semester they intend to take their qualification exam (please follow all deadlines according to the enrollment date). For information on requesting enrollment outside the regular enrollment period, click here.

The committee must be registered in SIGAA by the advisor at least 15 days in advance (prior approval by the program coordination is not required).

The qualification document in PDF format must be sent by the advisor or student to ppg.quimica@ufabc.edu.br. The committee will only be approved in the system by the coordination after receiving the PDF qualification.

Invitation letters are sent automatically to committee members after the committee is approved in the system.

For more information about the qualification process, including eligibility criteria and the required document template, please refer to the internal program regulations.

Additional information on scheduling committees, as well as manuals for students and faculty, is available here.

Note: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the deadline for qualifications was extended to up to 45 days before the defense for all students admitted before 2025.
