Programa de Pós-Graduação em História

About the Program

Since its foundation in 1974, the Programme of Post Graduation in History of Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (PPGH/UFPE) has steadied as a producer of historical knowledge and a training entity for teachers, professors and scholars, who work at a myruad of Teaching and Research institutions throughout Brazil.

Until the end of 2024, 692 Master degree dissertations and 306 PhD theses have been aproved. It is worth pointing out that the Master degree program started in 1974 and the PhD program began in 1991. Many of those dissertations and theses have been published. That enabes stating that, after more than four decades of work, there is a historiography about the North and Northeast of Brazil which is nationally and internationally acknowledged, built from the Programme of Post Graduation in History of UFPE.

Besided that, CLIO: Revista de Pesquisa Histórica (ISSN 2525-5649), a jornal published by our programme, circulates uninterruptedly since 1977, formerly in print and currently in digital format only.

Our professor cadre currently has 38 professors (all of them PhD holders), of which 36 are permanent professors (95%) and 2 are visiting fellows (2%). They are divided among the following research lines: "CULTURE AND MEMORY", "THE ATLANTIC WORLD", "HISTORICAL KNOWLEDGE: THEORY, TEACHING AND MEDIA", and "FROM ANCIENT TO MODERN: POWER, CULTURE AND SPEECH".
