The economical, social and technological development of a country depends directly on its qualified human resources formation system, more specifically, research and development policies and Stricto Sensu postgraduate system. The research constitutes the basis of the sustainable development on those subjects, especially in the construction of the contemporary knowledge societies. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the postgraduate programs of the Medicine School at USP/RP that, according to the criteria adopted in the last triennial 2001-2003 (CAPES, 2005), reached by a set of sixteen programs - average grade next to six marks-, with reduced relative dispersion. The study of such performance suggests this is due to the set of variables that compose the excellence scenario achieved. Ahead of the employeesquality, the adequate financial and material resources, the intensive and extensive inter relation with the specific scientific community; an important aspect sometimes dismissed lies on the organization and institutional phenomena that supports the system structure and flows. The postgraduate programs success isnt, however, related to the quantitative variables (professors number, bibliographical production, number of guided pupil per teacher etc), but also by the way they are organized and managed. For this purpose, it was developed a qualitative research, of exploratory descriptive character, in which it was intended to study how the institutional standards (normative, regulative and culturalcognitive) of the Stricto Sensu postgraduate programs of the Medicine School at USP/RP influence on the concepts obtained in the triennial evaluation CAPES.
