%X introduction: this paper studies the influence of a scientific initiation programme (sip) on the professional profile of new doctors from a brazilian university. aim and methods: evaluate fifty-two new doctors divided into two groups matched by sex, age and academic performance and differing only in participation in the sip. professional and socioeconomic data were collected, including schooling of parents; average income before, during and after the medical course; current professional situation; results of exams for civil servant recruitment; and titles and degrees obtained after graduation. results: significant differences were found only in civil servant recruitment exam results (p = 0.0098) and in income after graduation (p = 0.02), which were both higher in the non-sip group. only one doctor got a m.sc. degree after graduation, but many of them in both groups obtained technical titles, and had papers presented at congresses or published. conclusions: apparently, taking part in a sip led to lower income and worse civil servant recruitment exam results. however, this may only reflect a transient phase in a long-term process. new research currently under way will answer this remaining question, now that more time has elapsed since graduation.
