نبذة مختصرة : This article presents a quanti-qualitative mapping of the dissertations elaborated in the Professional Master’s Program in Mathematics in National Network (PROFMAT) produced in the last seven years, whose object of study was Mathematical Modeling. The objective was to obtain, in the quantitative scope, an overview of research in the dissertations and, qualitatively, to verify if the subject is approached from a teaching methodology perspective. The mapping identified the most discussed contents and the distribution of productions by education level, year of publication, regions, states and institutions, allowing us to verify the evolution of the works and possible deficiencies. In total, 140 dissertations on Mathematical Modeling were investigated at all education levels, including the continuing education of mathematics teachers. It was noticed there has been an increase in production in recent years, mostly presenting themes aimed at high school, without discussing, however, the importance of Mathematical Modeling as a teaching tool.
