The ENCE’s Postgraduate Program has two lines of research: Population, Territory and Living Conditions and Production of Public Statistics. The former focuses on the study of population and territorial dynamics and on the population's living conditions, encompassing social, economic and environmental aspects, and the second one, on the planning and operation of censuses, sample surveys and administrative records used for the production of public statistics regarding population and territorial dynamics and the population’s living conditions.
The Specialization has 468 classroom-based credit hours distributed in three quarters, with classes on Mondays and Fridays, in the morning. Technical visits and field activities are also carried out, preferably on Saturdays and within a maximum eight-hour period. The objective is to enhance professional qualification, contributing with technical, methodological and theoretical support, and presenting a critical point of view about the process of environmental/territorial planning and management and spatial production.
