Resumo: The author discusses the challenges faced by the Brazilian graduate studies system with an emphasis on the human health sector. He identifies imbalances in the supply side of knowledge, a prime territory for graduate programs, while highlighting that a proper conceptualization of such imbalances is incomplete if it fails to incorporate the demands for scientific and technological knowledge coming from healthcare services, industry, and society. He draws on concepts from technology economics involved in the innovation systems approach. The article highlights the historical and current role of Brazilian Graduate Studies Coordinating Board (Capes), particularly its evaluation system, as an essential device for overcoming the existing challenges in Brazilian graduate studies. The author concludes by suggesting some conceptual adjustments in the agency’s work.

Identifica algunos problemas desde la perspectiva de la oferta de conocimiento, que es el territorio específico del posgrado, mientras cree que una correcta apreciación de los dichos problemas implica analizar variables que se localizan desde la perspectiva de la demanda, tales como la industria, los servicios de salud y la sociedad. Para discutir el problema desde esa perspectiva, se utiliza como marco teórico el concepto de Sistemas Nacionales de Innovación. El trabajo da énfasis al rol de la agencia brasileña de posgrado (Capes), en particular el rol de su sistema de evaluación periódica de los programas. Por ende, hace algunas sugerencias de cambios con el objetivo de superar los retos apuntados.O texto discute os desafios postos ao sistema de pós-graduação brasileiro, com ênfase no setor de saúde humana. Localiza desequilíbrios no lado da oferta de conhecimento, território precípuo da pós-graduação, mas cogita que uma correta conceituação dos desequilíbrios não será adequada sem a incorporação de impulsos da demanda por conhecimento de base científica e tecnológica advindos dos serviços, da indústria e da sociedade. Para discutir essa abordagem, lança mão dos conceitos da economia da tecnologia involucrados na abordagem dos sistemas de inovação. Ressalta o papel histórico e atual da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (Capes), em particular o seu sistema de avaliação, como dispositivo essencial para a superação dos desafios existentes. Finalmente, sugere ajustes conceituais no funcionamento da agência, com vistas a essa superação.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2014-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5454Reports in Public Health; Vol. 30 No. 8 (2014): AugustCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 30 n. 8 (2014): Agosto1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5454/11226https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5454/11227Reinaldo Guimarãesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:28:44Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/5454Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:06:16.258945Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
