Geovisualization of The Academic Trajectories of Brazilian Researchers

People seeking academic careers usually pursue degrees in various institutions, looking for the best combinations regarding their intellectual interests, their personal means and the opportunities that arise in their lives. This can be perceived by looking at the stages in the education of current researchers, as recorded in their curricula vitae. We define the academic trajectories of researchers as the sequence of degrees obtained by a researcher, culminating with a work position. After geolocating academic and work institutions, and using the time period associated with each degree in the vitae data, the trajectories become spatiotemporal objects. We present an analysis of the academic trajectories of nearly 6,000 researchers associated with CNPq’s National Institutes of Science and Technology program, based on their curriculum vitae data. An interactive visualization tool has been developed. Analyses include the variety of trajectories, preferred destinations, variations along time and different patterns related to research area.
