Preparatory stage that can be fulfilled through:

Practical activity in which the student acts as a teaching assistant in undergraduate courses, under the supervision of the responsible faculty member.

The following students cannot participate:

At IQUSP, the ESD is preferably carried out in undergraduate courses. Experimental courses and those with large numbers of students have priority in the allocation of scholarship interns.

Starting in 2025, doctoral students can also complete the ESD in graduate courses, provided they have already fulfilled the CAPES requirement in undergraduate courses.
