PPGAS opens registrations to fill vacancies

The Postgraduate Program in Social Anthropology (PPGAS/UFRN) publishes a notice of the selection process to fill three additional vacancies for indigenous, quilombola, gypsy, transsexual and transvestite students in the doctorate. Registrations can be made until November 1st, through the Integrated Academic Activities Management System (Sigaa).
The Program's lines of research are: Spaces, images, technologies; Gender, sexualities, body and health; Memory, local knowledge, religiosity, rituals; Politics, rights and ethnicity. Four stages make up the selection process: approval of requested registrations; evaluation of documentation sent by candidates;  argument and oral defense of the research draft and memorial; and dissemination of the final result.
PPGAS aims to train professionals, at master's and doctorate levels, based on a broad spectrum of themes and theoretical-methodological issues that support the expansion of teaching and research in Anthropology in the country. Among the various themes that cover these teaching research, the continuity of Afro-Brazilian studies, ethnology and ethnicity must be highlighted. Studies of fishing communities, as well as popular culture and heritage, have been promoted and encouraged since the program's creation.
Master's students will be able to enroll in the selection process if they can prove they have completed their training. If approved, they must send the declaration by the end of the registration period to the postgraduate office's email address. The candidate must attach the supporting documents requested in the notice to the Sigaa questionnaire at the time of the registration request.
The results will be published via news in the candidate's area on Sigaa and on the PPGAS wall. Participants classified beyond the number of available places will be substituted and may be called up later.
