The Graduate Program in Environmental Engineering - PPEAMB, for the 2025-28 quadrennium, has enhanced its Institutional Strategic Planning - ISP, based on the continuous improvement of evaluation indicators, the UFRPE Institutional Strategic Planning, and the critical vision of the academic community (faculty, students, alumni, and technical staff) directly related to the Program. It is emphasized that CAPES highlighted in the Engineering I Area Evaluation Form the mandatory preparation of the ISP, considering the articulation with the IES strategic planning, aiming at proactive management, adequacy and improvements in infrastructure, and elevation in the qualification and training of students (Master's and Doctoral), linked to bibliographic, technical, and/or artistic intellectual production.

This PPEAMB ISP was based on the evaluation of the 2020-24 ISP, the CAPES recommendations, and the listening of the academic community through a specific instrument. Thus, the mission, vision, and values of the Program were ratified, the strategic objectives were evaluated, and short, medium, and long-term actions were defined, based on a diagnosis using the SWOT method, with the definition of the evaluation of the internal environment (strengths and weaknesses) and external environment (opportunities and threats).

We have advanced in the standardization of the process of maintenance, qualification, accreditation, and replacement of faculty in the permanent and collaborating staff, in addition to initiating an internationalization policy, strengthening social insertion, monitoring alumni, and technological advances. The monitoring process will continue to be carried out by a Permanent Strategic Planning Committee of the PPEAMB, responsible for coordinating the entire process and encouraging the achievement of the various goals. Thus, the attached document reflects the commitment of the PPEAMB academic community in the continuous improvement process, alignment with best teaching and learning practices, incorporation of innovative technologies, and observance of social and market demands. In this sense, efforts will be continued to elevate excellence in professional training in the field of graduate studies in Environmental Engineering.
