Development of the Dissertation project
A doctoral dissertation is considered an investigation study that represents an original contribution to the state-of-the-art of the subject addressed.
Selection and evaluation of the dissertation project
The graduate applicant for approval of the dissertation project should submit it to the Scientific Committee (SC) of the Heart Institute of the Clinical Hospital of the School of Medicine of the University of São Paulo (HCFMUSP), in case the research is carried out at the Institution, either entirely or partly, according to the instructions available on the link http://www.incor.usp.br/sites/incor2013/index.php/como-submeter-um-projeto-na-comissao-cientifica

The SC will provide the project to be sent to the Stricto Sensu Graduate Committee for evaluation.
Research projects involving humans (patients) who do not belong to the HCFMUSP Complex will be firstly analyzed by the Graduate Committee, and later the FMUSP Department of Cardiopneumology and the REC-FMUSP are informed after the project is registered.
Research projects requiring corrections and/or adjustments suggested by the Program Coordinating Committee on the evaluation of the dissertation project will have a deadline of 30 days to make the necessary changes. If this deadline is not met, the projects will be returned to the Scientific Committee, restarting the evaluation process.
