Resumo
Brazilian institutions involved with polymer education have grown
substantially in the last few decades, both in number and quality. This paper
provides a panorama of the current situation, presenting a view of the Brazilian
educational system and discussing how polymer education evolved in the country
and now fits within that structure. Given the continental dimensions of Brazil, a
regional analysis is presented examining some aspects of polymer teaching at
undergraduate and postgraduate levels. The presence of specific courses on polymer
science in the syllabi of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Materials Engineering
programs delivered by Brazilian institutions is considered. The importance of
funding agencies in sponsoring polymer education and research at postgraduate
level and the crucial role of the Brazilian Polymer Associtation (ABPol) in promoting
all aspects of polymer education in Brazil are highlighted.
