Judge Kassio Marques admitted before Senator Randolfe Rodrigues (Rede-AP) that he did not complete a postgraduate degree at the University of La Coruña, in Spain. As the Status revealed, the university stated that it does not offer the course reported by the magistrate and noted that he was a student of a single five-day course in 2014.
The judge is now trying to attribute the information, however, to an “error”, a problem in the translation. The short course taken six years ago would be, according to Marques, a “postgraduate”, what he says is a type of specialization unparalleled with postgraduate studies in Brazilian patterns.
“In his opinion, it is an understanding that is not correct, of being a graduate student. What he said and is really in his curriculum is that he did a ‘graduate’ course in Spanish. It is a course that is not from graduate, in his argument, ”Randolfe said, after meeting with the judge.
The fact is that “postgraduate” is, yes, postgraduate, in the same line that defines understanding in Brazil or abroad. As the Cambridge dictionary shows, for example, when clarifying that it is a “master” degree in university training. The dictionary also explains that it is an academic course in which students may take more than one or two years to complete, after they have completed their undergraduate studies.
More than that, the truth is that the University of La Coruña itself was clear in its response, referring to exactly the same term – “postgraduate” – to affirm that there was no course. We inform you that the University of La Coruña did not offer any postgraduate under the name of Postgraduate in Public Procurement “, stated the entity, in response to the Status.
Randolfe Rodrigues received Marques at his home in Brasilia on Tuesday evening the 6th. The magistrate has been holding informal talks with the senators before the formal hearing before confirmation by the Supreme Court Minister (STF).
He pointed out that, in the curriculum that he distributes, in the documentation that he distributed, it is not reported as postgraduate, but as ‘postgraduate’, which is a course and not properly postgraduate, in Portuguese, in the format we know. in Brazil, “Randolfe added.
The curriculum that Marques sent to the Federal Regional Court of the First Region (TRF-1) and is published on the court’s website indicates that the judge completed a postgraduate degree in Public Procurement at the University of La Coruña. However, the institution reported that it does not offer postgraduate courses in this course and clarified that Marques only participated, and as a visitor, in a five-day course, held in 2014.
The Dean of Postgraduate Programs at USP, Carlos Gilberto Carlotti Junior, told the Status which, in general, postgraduate means master’s or doctorate. “You can call it a specialization course, internship, extension, but in the academic world the term ‘graduate’ is not used for a course as small as this, unless you say it is a sensible graduate course,” he said.
Carlotti also said that the term “post-doctorate” generally refers to courses that come after completing a doctorate. “If you did an internship abroad before your doctorate, it is not common to call it postdoctoral. The term postdoctoral implies that it is after the doctorate.”
