SIME-POMA, Luis. Excellent Doctorates in Education: Brazil, Mexico and Argentina. educ.educ. [online]. 2013, vol.16, n.3, pp.433-451. ISSN 0123-1294.

The doctoral programs in education regarded as excellent by the public systems for accreditation in Brazil, Mexico and Argentina are identified through this exploratory study. Specifically, it describes and compares the lines of research pursued by those programs, as well as some of the characteristics of the participating teachers-researchers (quantity, extent of accreditation as researchers, quantity and characteristics of articles published). The findings are based on a documentary analysis of official information about doctoral programs and the public agencies involved, as provided on their websites. The study reveals significant data on these programs, although the information on the websites varies. It also shows they contribute to the scientific legitimacy of education as a relevant field of knowledge around which it is possible to organize academic communities that are committed to generating multidisciplinary knowledge and to training researchers in this area, which is recognized the same as other university scientific communities.
