Objective: to evaluate the system to outline the graduate students from the Post-Graduate Programs of CAPES Medicine III area. Method: it was analyzed the book of indicators and the Document of Area of the Post-Graduate Programs of Surgery, also checking the literature about this issue. Results: there was a paucity of data from most of the programs, as regards to the methods for evaluation of graduate students. The current system lacks a standard and an institutional support to outline the graduate students. In the public system there is a concentration of postgraduate students in Medicine; however, they represent a small part of those Brazilians students who finished their graduation courses in Medicine. In the current context, the quest for the post graduate courses and consequently for a research field or even a teaching career, has been replaced by the private sector jobs and the labor market, both in non-academic assistance activities. Conclusion: it is imperative to establish not only science and technology innovation policies but also educational and health policies acting harmoniously and stimulating the qualification and the teaching career, improving the post-graduate courses. It is necessary to develop a single form under the institutional guidance of CAPES with the conception of a National Program for Graduate Student in order to consolidate guidelines to mapping the graduate students of post-graduate programs in surgery, in our country.

This text deals with the notion formulated by Gaston Bachelard of oneiric childhood, which refers to a permanent childhood that is renewed through active imagination and poetic reverie, promoting an articulation between memory and imagination in our awaken dreams. Aiming to give visibility and more reflection on the bachelardian oneiric childhood, we have investigated the approaches of this phenomenon within works of post-graduate students supervised by Ana Laudelina F. Gomes in the Research Group in which we participate - Mythos-Logos:religion, myth and spirituality. After doing a bibliographical research on thesis, dissertations and papers written by some of the members that are part of the group which works with such a notion, like Badiali (2016), Batista (2015, 2016, 2017, 2018), Eustáquio (2015, 2016), Melo (2012) and Gomes (2013b), it was noticed how this theme was recurring in a lot of different works. I perceived that reading these studies has triggered my own oneiric childhood, as it is in a ritual of anthropophagic readings. My infant being was fed by the narratives and images of those childhoods, which further expanded my poetic reveries, experience and reflection on the theme. Therefore, I have decided to present within this article some of the repercussions these readings provoked in me, stems from the collective orientation given by the supervisor Professor and sometimes by an invited person, when all the postgraduate students involved in the research read and make comments on the studies of one another.   Keywords: Childhood; Gaston Bachelard; Oneiric Poetry;  Anthropophagic Readings;

The study assessed the influence of Responsive disorder on the academic performance of married post-graduate students in North Eastern Universities in Nigeria. Two research questions and two null hypotheses were formulated in harmony with the objectives of the study. The design of this study is survey. The population of the study consist of 22,772 married post-graduate students from 4 Universities in North-east, Nigeria. The sample size for the study was 422 determined using the Proportionate sampling strategy employed at different levels in selection of postgraduate students from the four Universities and along gender lines. The researcher developed two instruments for data collection for the study titled: Students’ Responsive disorder Inventory and Research and Statistics Achievement Test. The reliabilities of the instruments yielded 0.84 and 0.87 reliability coefficients of internal consistency for SRDI and RSAT respectively. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize data related to the research questions. Linear regression statistic was used to test the formulated null hypotheses. It was found that postgraduate students face Responsive disorder even with an above average level academic performance. However, Responsive disorder significantly influenced academic achievement of postgraduate students who are married in Universities in North-east Nigeria. Also, Responsive disorder significantly predicts academic achievement of postgraduate students irrespective of gender. The study concludes that there is relatively high level agreement among postgraduate students in the North-east states with respect to the Responsive disorder faced by them. The finding debunks traditional beliefs that married people are more likely to perform poorly or even drop-out. This study found support for the position that married people may beat the single and even complete their studies before the singles. The study recommends among others that; coping strategies be evolved to help resolve the debacle; Scholarships should be awarded to students to reduce the financial burden, and, efforts should be invested in promoting emotional health among post-graduate students in order to mellow the negative effect on their academic performance.

In India, the development of entrepreneurship is becoming more important as it is one of the driving force for achievement of economic development and job creation. Entrepreneurship is the process of creating value by developing the necessary time and effort, assuming the various factors such as financial, physical, and social risks, for rewards of monetary and personal satisfaction The research objective of the study is to investigate the factors associated with entrepreneurial inclination among post graduate students in Indian universities. The paper provides hypotheses about risk aversion, fear of failure, lack of social networking, lack of resources and stress aversion among post graduate students. The proposed hypotheses are tested on a sample of 160 post graduate students. To analyse the data descriptive analysis and regression were employed. The findings help to clarify the reasons for positive entrepreneurial inclination among students to become entrepreneurs. This paper is an attempt to create a better understanding of the factors that account for entrepreneurial inclination among postgraduate students.
