The aim of this study was to evaluate the profile of the students and the knowledge produced in theAdult Health Nursing Graduate Program (PROESA) of the Nursing College of the University of São Paulo (EEUSP). A documental, exploratory and descriptive study from 2000 to 2004 was conducted. Results identified that the students of the PROESA in the period analyzed were graduated at the EEUSP (46.5%), they had a long time as nursing practitioners and no previous experience in scientific research. It were concluded 43 academic production (2.4 production/ sponsor) and the principal area of investigation was "Technology in adult health". The research designs of most quantitative studies were classified as non-intervention with a high frequency of descriptive studies. The long time to accomplish the publication and the restricted assort of qualified journals in nursing areas were the most important identified factors to limit the publications of the academic production.
