This is a descriptive-exploratory study, documentary, carried out by means of the survey of the dissertations produced in the PPGEnf-UFRN at the academic master’s level, together with the data available in the Plataforma Lattes on productions of students and graduates from 1999 to August 2012. The 185 dissertations produced in the PPGEnf-UFRN were published between 1999 and 2012. It was possible to identify that the dissertations present a greater predominance of the qualitative approach (61%), and studies with a non-experimental design (99%). The study evidenced the productive potential of the post-graduate program studied.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Artigo de RevistaPesquisaTendênciasEducação em EnfermagemNursing EducationTrendsResearchJournal Articlearticle
