About PPGBios

The Program of Post-graduation in Bioethics, Applied Ethics and Collective Health - PPGBIOS – through association among the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, the Foundation Oswaldo Cruz, the State University of Rio de Janeiro and the Federal University Fluminense – has the goal of preparing people to work as professors in higher education and for high level researches. The PPGBIOS has the development of the Bioethics area as its object. If we consider the country dimensions, the number of higher education courses that demand adaptations to the curricular guidelines that emphasize the professional bioethical and ethical education, the need of a strong post-graduation course that faces this challenge is imperative. However, it is not enough to prepare people. It is necessary to develop knowledge in this area that is still in progress.  That means that the greatest challenge is to constitute strong research nucleus that are able to produce knowledge in a systematic way. Post-graduation is this manner of institutionalizing the production of knowledge, by creating structures that permit its development. In this sense, the PPGBIOS is committed with this perspective and it has the will to develop: 

  • through frank dialogue with other areas of knowledge in institutions that integrates it, UFRJ, Fiocruz, UERJ and UFF and a permanent dialogue with the Collective Health, the Philosophy and the Law;
  • with international articulations, by putting Brazil into the international debate (see International Interchanges);
  • with the perspective of spurring the development of post-graduation programs in the area in other parts of Brazil, both through minter and dinter in close future moment - as the origin of the current students shows - and graduating people from many parts of Brazil.
