Description
Summary:The Postgraduate Program in Regional Development from the University of Santa Cruz do Sul – UNISC completed 20 years in 2014. Created in 1994, at a Master Degree level, it was originally linked to CAPES’ multidisciplinary committee, being the first program in the country in the area. In 2002 it was restructured, being related, since then, to the Regional/Demography and Urban Planning Committee. After receiving a grade 4 during the CAPES evaluation process, in 2004, the program has also started offering a Doctorate Degree after 2005. In 2010 it was restructured a second time, culminating with the grade 5 ranking from CAPES during their triennial evaluation. In this article are presented the theoretical-methodological references that lead the discussion about regional development, which occurred in the program throughout the last 20 years, along with data that show the trajectory and the results that were achieved during this period.
