"alunos licenciados", sorry. Which means they can be enrolled in a post-graduate programm.
"Intercalar" is correct and it also exists in Brasilian Portuguese, but maybe there is a better word out there. I just can't think of any one right now. Let's see what other colleagues have to say about your query.

It's like Ines said, a graduation is a first degree, so if a "curso de graduação" is the first degree one can take in Brasil, than it's a "curso de graduação", don't worry about it being "licenciatura" in Portugal. |

Asker: Hi,
This is for the Brazilian market. I don't think "licenciatura" is appropriate. "Graduate students" are "estudantes de pos-graduacao". Would "intercalado" instead of "intercalar" make sense to you? Thanks
Asker: Hi Ines,
No Brasil, normalmente dizemos "cursos de graduacao e pos-graduacao" para os cursos universitarios.
