Mestrado Acadêmico em Engenharia Mecânica - International students

About the graduate program

The Master of Mechanical Engineering degree is intended for students with undergraduate degrees in mechanical engineering or a closely related field. The Graduate Program in Mechanical Engineering at Federal Institute of São Paulo offers masters graduate course as well as post-doctoral positions. The program has completed 8 years of success trajectory in 2020.

The objective of the course is to graduate masters in Mechanical Engineering capable of working with the techniques used in the measurement, analysis, treatment and identification of parameters and variables necessary for modeling and development of materials and manufacturing processes. In addition, to encourage the development of scientific and technological research in the business sector, enabling the implementation and promotion of technological innovations, registration of trademarks and patents that come from applied research. The course also promotes the exchange of ideas between professors, researchers and professionals working in companies in the state of São Paulo - Brazil.

Fees

The course is free, with no monthly fees and registration fees for the selective process.

Admission

The admission processes of the master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering take place once a year and the calls are published in May.

For the application there is a specific notice, which will be published on this page, but in general the necessary documents are:

- An application form

- Official copies of the diplomas

- Resume

- University certificates

- A letter from your academic supervisor

- Draft project

The selection process consists basically in a draft project, interview and analysis of the applicant's CV. 20 places are offered for regular students and 15 places for non-regular students for the course. The program offers scholarships opportunities for the best master’s applicants.
