Thus, this study aimed to know the profile of UFMT Sinop students who graduated between 2010 and 2016 (1st to 13th graduated classes), as well as to evaluate the level of satisfaction of their training and professional performance, to analyze if the course is focused on the labor market according to the needs of the region and to identify the negative and positive points during the training. The sample consisted in the nursing course graduates of the Federal University of Mato Grosso/Campus Sinop, graduated classes from 2010/2 to 2016/2, according to the records provided by the course coordinator. The data collection was performed through personal contact, via phone and media technologies, since it is assumed that there is a significant number of graduates in another state cities of the state and even outside of it. Data collection was done through a form containing 26 questions, 5 closed and 21 open questions. Data analysis was performed through descriptive statistics and the data was organized into tables. For the data analysis, spreadsheet software was used. The research respected all the ethical principles described in the Resolution 196/96, as determined by the National Health Council, mainly the four basic references of bioethics: autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, and justice, being carried out with approval by the Ethics and Research Committee of the Federal University of Mato Grosso, number 194.278. Of the 343 graduates, 198 were contacted and 25 accepted to participate. The study sample constituted 7.28% of the total graduates. The socio-demographic profile of nurses is characterized by female subjects, with a mean age of 26 to 30 years. 21 (84.00%) reported being in the labor market, and just 4 (16.00%) reported not work in the area. Of the 25 graduates contacted, 18 (72.00%) reported having sought a specialization after graduation. (76.00%) reported being fit for the job market and 4 (16.00%) did not feel prepared, 2 (8.00%) reported being partially trained. The graduates evaluated the course as regular 3 (12.00%), good 12 (48.00%), great 4 (16.00%) and excellent 6 (24.00%). The nursing graduates of Campus Sinop are satisfied with their academic education, but point out some adjustments for its improvement, such as the increase of practical classes’ hours, teacher training and extension of the internship areas. In this way, UFMT will provide the training of generalist, humanist nurses capable of working in any health service.
