This Master of Science Thesis investigates in an exploratory modeling the idea of strategy consistency applying as an assessment tool a model of performance indicators of a higher education institution based on the balanced scorecard (BSC). It is carried on a review of conceptual BSC perspective hierarchy models and of studies on higher education institution in Brazil and worldwide. From a BSC model with three indicators at each perspective is carried on a case study with directors and coordinators of a private higher education institution with a descriptive and multivariate analysis using cluster analysis. The main findings point to a different perception of respondents on the importance level of the perspectives with a higher importance level given to Learning and Growth and Process that to Customer and Financial. Particularly, the financial perspective got a importance level significantly lower that the others, what suggests an inconsistency on the strategy deployment on the institution considered in terms of the perception of the managerial levels of the importance level of the perspectives

This Thesis deals with entrepreneurship on higher education undergraduate programs. The main objective is investigating the effectiveness of entrepreneurship education in terms of entrepreneurial attitudes and behavior. The study is done on a University that has an entrepreneurship education program on a Business Management undergraduate program. It is conducted a survey using a questionnaire on the Business Management undergraduate students resulting in a random stratified sample of 264 students. The entrepreneurial attitudes variables used are those found on the entrepreneurship literature. The entrepreneurial behavior variables are typical entrepreneurial situations like a decision on how to apply money and if the student would leave a good job to open his or her own company. It is applied multiple regression, cluster, bivariate and chi-square analysis. The main findings are first that it was not found a strong relationship between the entrepreneurial attitudes variables found on the entrepreneurship literature and the behavior situation proposed, with a multiple regression adjusted r2 = 0,30. Second, there is no statistically significant difference among the students comparing different years of the undergraduate program. Finally, the entrepreneurship education in this research appears to be effective in change attitudes toward entrepreneurship but not in changing entrepreneurial behavior. The main theoretical implication is that the entrepreneurship education on higher education level could be effective to change attitudes but changing behavior could goes beyond the possibilities of education on a usual university environment

The elaboration of this thesis aimed at getting to know the structure of the psychological well-being (PWB) at work and analysing the differences in the PWB levels among technical-administrative servants in public and private Institutions of Higher Education (IES) in the municipality of Joo Pessoa. Two hundred and thirty-three public and private IES male and female servants of Joo Pessoa participated in the research, replying to an instrument composed of questionnaires referring to the elaborated model. Factorial and regression analyses were accomplished in order to test the hypotheses in respect of the proposed model. The results showed that the PWB related with the work is composed of indicators such as affection, vitality, anxiety, depression, satisfaction at work and aspiration for accomplishment and reduction of the self-efficiency. The observed PWB predictors at work were the IES type, presence of children, age and the escape and back-out facing strategy. These predictors possess relationship of moderation among them in the explanation of PWB. On comparing the PWB experienced by the technical-administrative servants, it was observed that those linked to private IES showed higher PWB rates. Furthermore, there are differences among PWB predictors in accordance with the IES type. The applicability of the results of this thesis is wide as regards social interventions in the search of health improvement under a psycho-sociological perspective. Eventually, the thematic of this thesis intends to reinforce the studies on the worker s health, since by knowing what would lead him into a feeling of accomplishment and well-being will result in more chances of promoting him, while creating opportunities of a sounder life for these people in psychological terms

A dissertao versa sobre a Poltica de Assistncia Estudantil e o processo de luta pela democratizao do acesso universidade, no contexto de expanso do ensino superior em tempos de crise estrutural do capital. Apresenta como unidade de anlise as particularidades da ps-graduao em Servio Social da UFRN e tem como objetivo principal apreender e analisar as condies de permanncia disponibilizadas pela UFRN aos discentes de ps-graduao no contexto de expanso do Ensino Superior. O percurso terico-metodolgico de anlise adotado na pesquisa se fundamentou numa perspectiva crtica do objeto de estudo a partir de uma concepo de totalidade, que pressupe apreender as determinaes socioeconmicas e polticas que incidem sobre a poltica de ensino superior e as condies de vida dos discentes do Programa de Ps-Graduao em Servio Social (PPGSS). As anlises fundamentaram-se em pesquisa bibliogrfica como base terico-metodolgica da investigao, articulada com as reflexes que resultaram dos dados empricos da pesquisa de campo na perspectiva de apreenso do objeto, em sua densidade histrica e num quadro de mltiplas determinaes. Do ponto de vista metodolgico foram entrevistados 26 discentes e realizada anlise documental referentes a leis e documentos da poltica educacional em nvel federal e dos organismos internacionais. A luta por ampliao do acesso universidade est na agenda dos movimentos sociais no mbito da educao, no entanto na conjuntura dos governos de Luis Incio Lula da Silva (2003 a 2010) e Dilma Rousseff (2011 a 2012) a tendncia tem sido seguir as orientaes dos organismos internacionais e promover expanso de vagas sem assegurar estratgias de permanncia compatveis com as exigncias de excelncia acadmica postas, por exemplo, na ps-graduao. Discentes entrevistados acessam o ensino superior e os cursos de ps-graduao e vivenciam dificuldades dirias para atender com qualidade s exigncias acadmicas em face de suas condies materiais de vida e de trabalho e dos limites da poltica de assistncia estudantil que tem um perfil de programas e aes localizadas

This work was developed with the objective of proposing a simple, fast and versatile methodological routine using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) combined with multivariate analysis for the determination of ash content, moisture, protein and total lipids present in the gray shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei ) which is conventionally performed gravimetrically after ashing at 550 C gravimetrically after drying at 105 C for the determination of moisture gravimetrically after a Soxhlet extraction using volumetric and after digestion and distillation Kjedhal respectively. Was first collected the spectra of 63 samples processed boiled shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei species. Then, the determinations by conventional standard methods were carried out. The spectra centered average underwent multiplicative scattering correction of light, smoothing Saviztky-Golay 15 points and first derivative, eliminated the noisy region, the working range was from 1100,36 to 2502,37 nm. Thus, the PLS models for predicting ash showed R 0,9471; 0,1017 and RMSEP RMSEC 0,1548; Moisture R was 0,9241; 2,5483 and RMSEP RMSEC 4,1979; R protein to 0,9201; 1,9391 and RMSEP RMSEC 2,7066; for lipids R 0,8801; 0,2827 and RMSEP RMSEC 0,2329 So that the results showed that the relative errors found between the reference method and the NIR were small and satisfactory. These results are an excellent indication that you can use the NIR to these analyzes, which is quite advantageous, since conventional techniques are time consuming, they spend a lot of reagents and involve a number of professionals, which requires a reasonable runtime while after the validation of the methodology execution using NIR reduces all this time to a few minutes, saving reagents, time and without waste generation, and that this is a non-destructive technique.

This article aims to critically review the regulatory frameworks that guided the institutionalization of distance education (DE) course offerings in higher education institutions in Brazil, taking as a reference 50 (fifty) documents which were analyzed for the research titled Expansion of Higher Education pos-LDB 96. The need for systematization of DE, legitimated by this Act (LDB-96), proved to be part of the guidelines of international agencies as a strategy for expansion of higher education and that the first initiatives of the Brazilian government were associated with the use of technology in education. A contextualized analysis of regulatory frameworks showed, initially, the quantitative and massified explosion of DE, without the state having proper instruments for its effective regulation. From 2005, new regulatory acts and the creation of the Open University of Brazil seek to maintain this expansion without losing quality.

Private Higher Education Institutions are embedded in a market where competitiveness is a key factor. To remain competitive, HEIs needs to have proactive and innovative strategies, especially to understand their main customers, students, with regard to their expectations about the quality of HEI. This study is to evaluate the overall private institutions of higher education in the city of Natal / RN, as the strategies adopted to remain on the market , based on the perceived quality of students. For conduct this research, it has developed two private institutions in the city of Natal, through the application using exploratory research to guide the survey for data collection with questionnaire to apply the overview with students, being directed to senior students courses in Bussiness, Accounting and Law. This research tool addresses aspects relevant to map the dimensions: (1) teaching, perspectives related to methods and teaching tools; ( 2 ) teachers, specifies the quality attributes related to teachers; (3 ) Infrastructure, describes the environment of the HEI; ( 4 ) services , evaluates the quality processes that attach to the HEI; and ( 5 ) intangible relates aspects with student satisfaction. The results were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques using the Statistical Package Tool for Social Sciences (SPSS). The first stage of results characterizes the descriptive analysis of the overall sample and by HEI and course, plus a build univariate analysis of the HEI and also bivariate analysis shows that correlation of the factors through Spearman correlation coefficient. The results were used to compose a matrix of importance versus performance that compare with the contents of the Ministry of Education and Culture (MEC). Finally, these comparisons allowed identification of the most important factors for the quality of the HEI and the level of performance from institutions in the development of each attributes of quality dimensions.

This thesis pursuits to contextualize the theoretical debate between the implementation of public education policy of the Federal Government focused in a distance learning and legal foundations for its enforcement, in order to raise questions and comments on the topic in question. Its importance is back to provide scientific input and can offer to the academy, particularly in the UFRN, and elements of society to question and rethink the complex relationship between the socio-economic and geographic access to higher education. It consists of a descriptive study on the institutionalization of distance education in UFRN as a mechanism for expanding access to higher education, for both, the research seeks to understand if the distance undergraduate courses offered by the UAB system and implemented at UFRN, promote expanding access to higher education, as it is during implementation that the rules, routines and social processes are converted from intentions to action. The discussion of this study lasted between two opposing views of Implementation models: Top-down and Bottom-up. It is worth noting that the documents PNE, PDE and programs and UAB MEETING reflect positively in improving the educational level of the population of the country It is a qualitative study, using the means Bibliographic, Document and Field Study, where they were performed 04 (four) in 2010 interviews with the management framework SEDIS / UAB in UFRN. The data were analyzed and addressed through techniques: Document Analysis and Content Analysis. The results show that the process of implementation of distance education at UFRN is in progress. According to our results, the research objective is achieved, but there was a need to rethink the conditions of the infrastructure of poles, the structure of the academic calendar, the management of the SEDIS UFRN, regarding the expansion of existing vacancies and the supply of new courses by the need for a redesign as the Secretariat's ability to hold the offerings of undergraduate courses offered by the Federal Government to be implemented in the institution. It was also found that levels of evasion still presents a challenge to the teaching model. Given the context, we concluded that the greatest contribution of UAB and consequently UFRN by distance learning for undergraduate courses (Bachelor in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Geography and Biological Sciences, beyond the bachelor's degrees in Business and Public Administration ) is related to increasing the number of vacancies and accessibility of a population that was previously deprived of access to university
