Description
Annually, during the evaluation process of the Graduate Programs in Brazil, the discussion about the Qualis journals classification resurfaces. In late 2016, the CAPES's (Brazilian Federal Agency for Support and Evaluation of Postgraduate Education) pharmacy webpage 1 published three important documents: (i) the 2017 Document of the Pharmacy Area, (ii) the Considerations on the Qualis Journals Classification 2016, and (iii) the article by Rita de Cassia Barradas Barata "Ten things you should know about the Qualis" (Barata, 2016). These documents explain in detail how the criteria for the journals classification in the scope of Postgraduate Programs evaluation are defined, including the purposes, applications and limitations of the system.
