In spite of a regular increase in the number of programs and scientific production, over the period analyzed, regional and spatial asymmetries and inequalities are also reproduced asymmetries and inequalities is also intensified. Such asymmetries generate interesting impacts to think about the future of scientific production in the country, especially those linked to the logic that favors graduate programs located in the south, southeast regions and the Federal District.
