Academic PhD

History, Politics and Cultural Assets

By creating an academic Master’s degree and a PhD in history, FGV CPDOC invested in training professionals who are capable of both producing knowledge and training new knowledge producers, through an intense dialogue with the social sciences. The creation of the courses was guided by the perspective of broadening and diversifying the scope of graduate studies in history, as opposed to competing with traditional programs that make up the offering of courses at the regional level. Their thematic emphasis on political history, focusing on Republican Brazil, coupled with an analytical preoccupation with cultural assets and, more recently, urban challenges and international relations make the courses a unique case. This particularity is intensified by the strength of interdisciplinarity has in them, which is justified by the vision that has guided the FGV CPDOC proposal since its inception, namely that the current dynamism of history is largely due to the dialogue it has been able to promote with the social sciences.

In view of the uncertainties of the current pandemic scenario, and to facilitate the planning of candidates and future students, all mandatory PHD will be offered online (live) in 2021.
