Seminar fosters collaboration, innovation, and knowledge in biomaterials, uniting professionals to advance healthcare applications.

The author plays an essential role in the School Management Specialization program and educational research projects in engineering and sustainability at the Federal University of Itajubá.

This draft document presents the registration and contextualization of the establishment of a collaborative space between a large metal-mechanical industry and a federal public university, in line with our academic coordination as federal public servants. The proposed space aims to provide an environment conducive to technological innovation and the development of immediate practical solutions to challenges faced by the metal-mechanical industry.

This work introduces a replicable model using AI as a structured support tool—not a content generator—to refine technical writing and narratives in materials processing education. Guided by faculty mediation and ethical standards, the approach effectively enhances active learning and student synthesis capabilities in engineering projects.

This post examines the pedagogical imperative of faculty advisorship within the Junior Enterprise (JE) movement, using the longitudinal case study of Tetra Jr.—the Materials Engineering JE at the Federal University of Itajubá (UNIFEI), Itabira Campus—as a primary example. Commencing in October 2019, this continuous faculty guidance has been instrumental in bridging the often vast chasm between rigid academic theory and dynamic market practice.

This post explores the critical intersection between the sociological studies conducted by the 'Observatório Jovem' (Youth Observatory) and the field of Engineering Education, emphasizing how data on youth behavior related to technology, work, and STEM careers can inform pedagogical strategies in engineering courses.

This post announces the official publication of the "Abstract Book" (Livro de Resumos), which compiles the extended abstracts of the pedagogical extension activities presented during the "Workshop on Processing and Materials for Engineering."

This post serves as an official announcement for the pedagogical extension workshop titled "Engineering Materials and Processing Workshop" (Process No. 23499.001637/2019-82), hosted by UNIFEI.

This report summarizes the "Steelmaking" and "Corrosion" workshops held at UNIFEI, where students presented applied engineering solutions. Topics ranged from optimizing production logistics and reducing setup times in steel plants to analyzing wear in mining grinding media.

Neste trabalho se apresenta as experiências no uso de metodologias ativas em um curso de Engenharia de Materiais no Brasil. A partir das experiências relatadas, uma análise do Projeto Pedagógico de Curso (PPC) do Curso de Graduação em Engenharia de Materiais da UNIFEI (EMT) é apresentada.
