PhD in Agricultural Engineering
by the Graduate Program in Agricultural Engineering at the Federal University of Santa Maria - PPGEA/UFSM (2018).
In 2015, I started my PhD course in Agricultural Engineering at the Graduate Program in Agricultural Engineering at the Federal University of Santa Maria (PPGEA/UFSM), under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Leonardo Nabaes Romano. My doctoral research work was developed at the renowned Laboratory of Technical Systems Design at the Federal University of Santa Maria, RS, Brazil (LPST/UFSM) associated with the graduate program of the same university, and addressed the construction of a production methodology which aimed at monetizing the scale production of Agricultural Machines. For this, I used a set of actions to collect, analyze and process data from renowned researchers in the academic sector and large companies in the agricultural business sector to organize the methodology. The results of my doctoral thesis are original and the methodology contributed to a greater understanding of the systematized and integrated structuring of monetization and value transformation in the agricultural machinery sector. This model currently provides the business sector with a strong knowledge base for reflection on the different possible scenarios to be created during the organization's management and serves for companies to implement improvements in their product and service processes. My doctoral thesis was approved, in 2018, with the maximum degree awarded by the entire board composed of five renowned professors in the area.

Master's degree in Production Engineering
by the Graduate Program in Production Engineering at the Federal University of Santa Maria - PPGEP/UFSM (2015);
In early 2013, I started the Master's course in Production Engineering in the Graduate Program in Production Engineering, at the Federal University of Santa Maria (PPGEP/UFSM), under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Janis Elisa Ruppenthal. This Federal educational institution was ranked according to the Times Higher Education Impact Ranking as the 7th best university in Brazil in the year 2020 in the area of innovation and competitiveness in engineering. My master's dissertation, developed in technical cooperation between the graduate program in production engineering (PPGEP/UFSM) and the engineering public service company that I serve as a Criminal Expert in Mechanical Engineering (IGP), addressed the development of a mathematical model based on artificial intelligence for the elaboration of technical reports for the analysis of failures in industrial machinery and mechanical equipment. The results of this project were promising in a way that several later projects using the same technology were developed and also boosted new studies of failures in machines and equipment, as it meets the interest of several companies in the technology sector, since it improves the understanding of the possibility of flaws and their applicability to other research groups. My master's dissertation was approved at the end of 2014, with maximum grade awarded by all three evaluator member professors.
