History and Proposal of the Program


Mathematical Modeling is a scientific area that extensively uses Mathematics and Scientific Computing. It uses mathematical and computational methods in the elaboration of mathematical models and the search for solutions to current problems in the most diverse areas of knowledge.

Currently modeling is used in areas such as mathematics, physics, condensed matter physics, systems identification, dynamical systems, mechanical systems control, grain storage and drying, gap control strategies in the production of petroleum, wireless sensor networks, mobile robotics, mathematical modeling through metaheuristics; plant breeding, physiology of cultivated plants, veterinary medicine, production of new materials for engineering, control and automation of systems, microelectronics among others.

Mathematical modeling has the improvement of production processes as its fundamental theme, especially in the regional agro-industrial sector and in all of Brazil, as well as the training of professionals to work in higher education.

The Master's degree lasts 24 months and offers 25 vacancies yearly. 32 credits, that is, 480 hours, are organized and offered on a semester basis, with classes on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.

The Doctorate degree lasts 48 months and offers yearly 10 vacancies.  48 credits, that is, 720 hours, are offered from Monday to Wednesday.


Target Audience


The Program covers professionals with a higher education diploma in Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, Agrarian Sciences, Veterinary Medicine, Computing and / or related areas.

Concentration area and lines of research


Mathematical Modeling (MM) is an area of knowledge that is essentially interdisciplinary, not restricted to any technical-scientific discipline that can be found in the curricula of math, engineering or even computing courses. MM studies the simulation of real systems from the application of mathematics aiming to describe and predict mathematically the behavior of a phenomenon. In this area of knowledge human resources are developed to use the mathematical tool in the placement and resolution of problems in different areas of knowledge contributing to the development of the region and the country. Professionals with this profile are scarce in Brazil, especially in regions far away from large centers. Professionals qualified in MM have a different profile from any others, since besides the knowledge in mathematics and computing they distinguish themselves from other professionals by the knowledge in the subject areas contemplated by the MM, among them the physics, mathematics, computation and Engineering, among others.


Line: Mathematical Modeling Applied to Biosystems Engineering

The line of Mathematical Modeling Research Applied to Biosystems Engineering aims to use mathematical modeling applied in an interdisciplinary way in the areas of engineering, physics, chemistry and biological sciences for technological development and innovation in the fields of agriculture, post-harvest technology, veterinary, systems automation, sensors, bioenergy, natural resources and sustainability.


Line: Computational Modeling, Optimization and Systems Control

The line of Research Computational Modeling, Optimization and Control of Systems comprises study, application and / or development of mathematical models and computational modeling techniques for the solution of interdisciplinary problems. This line also includes researches that apply techniques of optimization and control of dynamic systems as well as problems related to non-linear systems covering the use of mathematical / computational models in the perspective of support to decision making processes, emphasizing the fundamental theoretical questions and their applications.
