Abstract The aim of the study was to analyze the graduate’s profile of the PhD course in Postgraduate Program in Physical Education (PPPE), Federal University of Santa Catarina. Information from the 92 PhD graduates from 2006 to 2018 was collected from secondary sources of public domain sites. Three independent evaluators filtered the information through double typing. The data revealed that more than 50% of the graduates were male, 58.7% had a scholarship, and 27.8% had a sandwich doctorate in foreign institutions. Only 17.4% of graduates completed postdoctoral training. The highest proportion has employment as effective teachers (73.3%), mainly in public higher education institutions. The concentration themes in the area of Physical Activity and Health (PAH) predominate in the titles of the conclusion work. During the formative trajectory, 48.9% of the graduates changed, at least, once in the concentration area, 44.6% remained in the same area and 6.5% investigated the three distinct concentration areas during undergraduate, masters and doctoral studies. The majority develop PAH (50.0%), followed by Pedagogical (25.5%) and Biodynamics and Human Performance (17.8%). Thus, the doctors training in PPPE seems to design a profile according to the idealized by the course, with professional possibilities of insertion in higher education and engagement in scientific investigations. Resumo O objetivo do estudo foi analisar o perfil dos egressos do curso de doutorado do Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação Física (PPGEF), da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. As informações dos 92 egressos do doutorado no período de 2006 a 2018 foram levantadas em fontes secundárias de sites de domínio público. Três avaliadores independentes filtraram as informações por meio de dupla digitação. Os resultados revelaram que mais de 50,0% dos egressos eram do sexo masculino, 58,7% tiveram bolsa de estudos e 27,8% realizaram estágio de doutorado sanduíche em instituições estrangeiras. Apenas 17,4% dos egressos concluíram estágio de pós-doutorado. A maioria tem vínculo empregatício como professor efetivo (73,3%), principalmente em instituições públicas do magistério superior. As temáticas da área de concentração em Atividade Física e Saúde (AFS) predominam nos títulos dos trabalhos de conclusão. Ao longo da trajetória formativa, 48,9% (n=45) dos egressos mudaram pelo menos uma vez de área de concentração, 44,6% (n=41) mantiveram-se na mesma área de concentração e 6,5% (n=6) inves
