Abstract: Introduction: the scientific production of universities serves as a key indicator of their commitment to research and knowledge generation. It represents the collective efforts of educators, researchers, and students contributing to the advancement of science and technology. Objective: to analyze the scientific production in the Scopus database of the Universidad Nacional Amazónica de Madre de Dios (UNAMAD). Methods: the research adopted a bibliometric and retrospective approach. An analysis of Scopus-indexed documents was conducted, evaluating the number of publications, authors, journals of publication, types of documents, language of publication, authorship order, funding sources, knowledge areas to which the documents belong, and co-authorship networks. Results: a total of 172 documents indexed in the Scopus database were identified, indicating a rising trend in production in recent years. Most documents were original articles, published in foreign journals in the English language, with collaboration from researchers affiliated with UNAMAD and no declared funding sources. Additionally, a higher number of documents were observed in the fields of Social Sciences and Environmental Sciences. Conclusions: in recent years, there has been a notable increase in UNAMAD's scientific production in the Scopus database. Nevertheless, it remains relatively limited in comparison to other universities in the Amazonian region and throughout Peru
