Abstract
The Professional Master's in Production Engineering at the Federal University of Amazonas has an important role in the technological, economic, and social development of the northern region. The Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel seeks to evaluate the effectiveness and quality of the insertion of new masters in the academic environment and the impact on society of the knowledge obtained. In this sense, this article aims to analyze the contributions of the Professional Master's course in Production Engineering at UFAM to the development of the area and its future challenges. To achieve the proposed objective, quantitative and qualitative research was carried out, of a descriptive nature and based on data collected through a questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. The results of the research indicate that contributions are generated both for the graduates from the improvement in their professional situation, for the organizations through the researches implemented, and for the academy through terms of partnerships to train these professionals, thus contributing, to local and western Amazon economic and sustainable development.
