The focus is on those interested in entering an excellent doctoral program to continue their careers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Students participate in a theoretical module during the summer holidays, lasting two months, and a practical module during the winter holidays, which takes place in different Brazilian biomes, lasting one month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the theoretical module, they undergo intensive training in quantitative tools used in ecology and develop a project with mathematical modelling. In addition, they immerse themselves in the different fields of ecology research through lectures, learning quantitative tools and discussion sessions with scientists working in excellent research centres worldwide.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the practical module, students go into the field to use quantitative tools to test the models developed or create models based on the observed phenomena.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The objective is, therefore, to unite the two traditional expertise in ecology that are generally separated: the theoretical, which uses mathematical and computational tools to think about large-scale data, and the empirical, which has a trained eye to observe how the modelled phenomena manifest themselves in nature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The scientific coordination of Training in Quantitative Ecology is carried out by Caio Mattos (UFSC).<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Who is the Training for?&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23002fa7&#8243; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;serrapilheira-bold-header&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]The program is aimed at people with a master&#8217;s degree in progress or completed in any area of \u200b\u200bknowledge at a Higher Education institution in Brazil.

It is also necessary that the candidate has some familiarity with differential and integral calculus and programming, as these tools will be used in classes.<\/p>\n<p>We are looking for students with diverse academic trajectories but who have in common curiosity and interest in delving into a wide variety of topics and methodological approaches in ecology.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Why a Training in Quantitative Ecology?&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%23002fa7&#8243; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;serrapilheira-bold-header&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]The Training is based on the premise that it is fundamental for Brazil to develop tropical ecology as a strategic axis, taking advantage of its leadership potential in combating the climate crisis and the devastation of biomes and making the country a global hub for climate and biodiversity scientists.<\/p>\n<p>Brazil has the largest natural laboratories on the planet: ecosystems. The Amazon, Cerrado, Atlantic Forest, Pantanal, Caatinga, Pampa and the ocean \u2013 each of them is extremely rich and diverse and, based on a green economy, has the potential to generate wealth that can be passed directly on to the population.<\/p>\n<p>Developing the strategic axis of tropical ecology implies transdisciplinary training that is being increasingly required. To occupy a central position in scientific production in the area, it is necessary to invest in excellent transdisciplinary training, with the potential to insert future scientists into an international network.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_section full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221;
