Course, Format, and Duration
Aimed at graduated professionals from any field, the course will be taught on the Moodle platform, allowing remote access to content, academic activities, and interaction with instructors.
The specialization has a duration of 24 months and requires a Final Paper, as per internal regulations.
The coordination is shared between the Bambuí and São João Evangelista campuses.
Areas of Emphasis and Target Audience
The specialization in Management offers four tracks in demand in the market: Entrepreneurship and Business, Digital Marketing, People Management, and Technology and Innovation.
Each emphasis has 20 slots available.
The program is indicated for those working or intending to work in leadership, management, and the development of innovative solutions in public, private, or third-sector organizations.
Reserved Slots and Inclusion Criteria
In addition to general competition, the notice establishes a policy of affirmative actions.
In each emphasis, 20% of the slots are reserved for self-declared black (African descent and mixed-race) and indigenous candidates, with confirmation by a heteroidentification commission for black candidates.
There is also 1 slot per emphasis reserved for persons with disabilities, upon presentation of a report in accordance with current legislation.
If there are remaining slots in the quotas, they revert to general competition of the respective emphasis, respecting the ranking order.
Who Can Register
Individuals with a degree recognized by MEC can apply.
The application is individual, and the applicant must choose only one emphasis at the time of registration.
If a candidate submits more than one form, the system will consider only the last registration recorded as valid.
How the Selection Will Work
The selection will occur in two stages.
The first stage, of an eliminatory and classificatory nature, consists of an online objective assessment with 25 multiple-choice questions on management topics, including Marketing Management, Strategic Management, People Management, Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Economics, Cost Management, and Pricing, Operations, and Logistics.
The exam will be available only during the scheduled period (November 7, from 7 PM to 9 PM), with access via CPF and initial password. The minimum passing score is 60 points.
The second stage, exclusive for those called for the reserved slots, the IFMG will perform confirmation of self-declarations: heteroidentification for black candidates; documentary analysis for indigenous persons and persons with disabilities.
Those who do not have the condition validated will continue to compete only in the general competition, according to the notice.
Results and Enrollment
The schedule provides for the release of the preliminary result of the first stage and a period for appeals.
After the validation phase of the reservations, the final result of the selection process will be published in December.
Candidates are advised to monitor updates on the institutional portal.
Enrollment will take place on dates to be informed, in early 2026, with the submission of documentation in PDF format.
