The aim of this study was to examine the profile and employability of graduate students in Fisheries Resources and Fisheries Engineering from a public university in the south of the country. By consulting electronic forms, questions were raised about the profile, productions and professional areas of the students. Most of the students were female (53.7%), with an average age of 37 years, especially from the state of Paraná (46.4%). The course is attended by students from the areas of Fisheries Engineering (60.7%) from public educational institutions (88.6%). Activities related to events and congresses (48.2%) were considered the most important in the students' view. The area of education and teaching (36.5%) was the one with the greatest insertion. The training of masters and doctors in the area contributes to boosting the social and economic development of the region, as well as the training of professionals from other regions of the country.
