Abstract

The FFCLRP has radically changed the RTI resource funding investment, according to the guidelines from the FAPESP advice in previous requests investing without fragmenting the funds and in fact, focusing in collective investments with interdepartamental scope and consequently intercisciplinary. As of knowledge, FFCLRP is a heterogeneous unit, composed since 2010 of seven departaments (biology mathematics and computer sciences Education, Information and Communication,physic, Music, Psychology, and Chemestry). They cover three classic knowledge áreas: Human, Exact and Biological Sciences. In practice, these departmentes work, mostly, as real institutes with natural Independence to perform their guidelines in the scientific research field. This success in fulfilling such mission in proven by our position in the tem most productive units among the 46 that composse the University of São Paulo and fall between the second and third in the Ribeirão Preto campus. This condition is enabled by the over 75 consolidated and active research grupos, in most diferente research áreas, distributed in the seven departments and respective post graduation programs of FFCLRP. Add to that 80 teachers with CNPq productivity research scholarships, 39 being level1 and 41 level 2 wich corresponds to 37,4 of all 214 teachers of the unit. In that line of reasoning, the funds received are distributed with differentiated criteria in the collective investment referring to: preventive and corrective maintenance of multiusers equipment (AU)
