Memorial Descritivo de Trajetória Acadêmica e Profissional

Abstract

This descriptive memorial, submitted as part of the requirements for promotion to the rank of Full Professor, presents my academic and professional trajectory since joining UFU – Federal University of Uberlândia, on May 22, 2002, through a public competitive examination in the field of Mathematics. I was appointed to the former FAMAT – Faculty of Mathematics (currently IME – Institute of Mathematics and Statistics) in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais. Both the quantitative and qualitative aspects addressed in this memorial have been presented in substantial detail, yet without adopting the tone or structure of a report. In order to provide a clear understanding of the beginning of my academic and professional journey at UFU, as described in the first chapter, I included information regarding my academic background prior to joining the institution – namely, my undergraduate and graduate studies (Master’s and Ph.D.), both in Mathematics. The remaining four chapters of this memorial are dedicated to the well-known academic pillars of “Teaching, Research, Extension, and Academic Management”, which are widely recognized within the university context. I present information and commentary on courses taught, academic supervision in its various forms, teaching projects, publications, academic and research presentations, participation in defense committees of various types, research projects, scientific committees for academic events, extension programs and projects, as well as advisory and coordination roles, including participation in the NDE – Structuring Teaching Core. Additionally, I address other activities related to academic administration carried out during my tenure as a faculty member at UFU. The structure of this memorial was developed in accordance with the guidelines established by Resolution 03/2017 of the CONDIR (UFU’s Board of Directors) (as amended by Resolution 05/2018 of the same Board), which sets forth the rules for career progression and promotion within the UFU faculty framework. Emphasis has been placed on activities related to Teaching and Research, or alternatively, to Teaching and Extension, as highlighted in said regulation.
