GENERAL RULES GOVERNING PPGA SCHOLARSHIPS
PPGA SCHOLARSHIPS COMMISSION
The Graduate Administration Program at Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie has a Scholarships Commission made up of five members, including the Program Coordination (commission chair) and parity representation of the faculty and students. The representatives of the faculty and students in the Commission are elected by their peers; faculty members must be tenured professors, while student members must have been enrolled in Program activities as regular students for at least one year.
Please note that the PPGA Scholarships Commission meets the criteria set forth by CAPES (for CAPES scholarships) in article 5 of Ordinance (“Portaria”) No. 181, dated December 18, 2012, and therefore operates as the CAPES Scholarships Commission for PPGA.
Members of the Scholarships Commission
The members of the PPGA Scholarships Commission serve one-year terms, and may be reelected by their peers for one additional year.
SCHOLARSHIP TYPES
The PPGA Scholarships Commission is responsible for overseeing the scholarship types listed in Table 2. All scholarship types are overseen based on the criteria set forth in CAPES Ordinance (“Portaria”) No. 181, dated December 18, 2012, or own criteria where set forth by sponsoring institutions.
