The growing numbers of Graduate Programs in Brazil has been extremely important for advances not only in scientific research, how for training many professionals across the country. At the Federal University of Ceará (UFC) the increase in master's and doctoral courses has also been observed, especially in the last decade. However, as well as growth, quality is also critical to the maintenance of these programs. In regards, the main reference for graduate programs is the evaluation carried out every four years by the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), which evaluates the programs by classifying them with concepts from 1 to 7. So the main objective of this study is to analyze the influence of CAPES assessment in postgraduate programs in human sciences area in the perception of coordinators and professors.

The research data were collected through the evaluation forms of the programs and sending questionnaires to professors and coordinators of six graduate programs in the area of human sciences at UFC. The study was consisted of 55 professors and 6 coordinators.
