Instruments to foster undergraduation research were developed and institucionalized in Brazil a few decades ago by CNPq and FAPs, with the intention of involving undergraduate students in the development of scientific and technological research in universities and research institutes. The present research aims to analyze the impact of undergraduation research on the academic career of students during and after graduation, using data from a previous work that evaluated undergraduate, master and PhD scholarship programs from São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP). The study concluded that undergraduation research has positive impacts on the academic career of students during and after graduation.
