O processo de criação do programa Universidade para Todos - PROUNI

From the end of the 80s, the Brazilian higher education experience strong growth, coming from the private sector, which would intensify further in the late 90th Higher education has become a lucrative business. With a drop in the number of students entering and strong competition, the number of idle places in private institutions of higher education reached 49.5% in 2004. That same year, by Measure, was the University for All Program (PROUNI) program, to include high school students from public higher education, offering scholarships to those students in private HEIs. In exchange, the IES gain tax exemption. The objective of this research is to investigate the game of interest occurred in the formulation of this program and identify the model and the political game and has led to the creation of PROUNI, analyzing the process occurred since the wording of a bill, the issue of Measure Law and that the legitimacy PROUNI, with the most important changes made initial model. Since the first draft of the Law to the final Act, the PROUNI was disfigured in its main points, as the percentage of stock for paying students, the process of selection of stock and bond of the IES program. Throughout the process of creating the program, it is quite clear the performance of the institutions representing the private higher education. As reference for the analysis was based on Rational Choice Theory of Political Science. The basic argument of the methods based on rational choice is the maximization of the benefit will be the main motivation of individuals, but they can give that your goals can be achieved more effectively through institutional action and thereby discover that their conduct is shaped by institutions. Thus, individuals rationally choose to get to a certain extent constrained to join in certain institutions, whether voluntarily or not. The PROUNI was submitted by government and public policy covered by the mystical aura of the discourse of social justice and economic development, as in higher education includes a stratum of people who would not have access to the university, due to restrictions in the supply network public higher education. However, the greatest benefit from the program are the private HEIs, which through a difficult time in a scenario marked by high competition and idleness of nearly half of the vacancies offered. The PROUNI became a program that prioritizes access and not the residence of the student to higher education. More serious than a supporting program for students Fellows is a program supporting the institutions of private education

Processo de planejamento estratégico em universidade pública: o caso da Universidade Federal do Pará

The goal of this research is to check if the strategic planning developed between 2001 and 2009 into the State University of Para (Universidade Federal do Pará - UFPA) was consolidated into its Academic Centers as a management practice. To this end, we identified the planning formalization degree of the Academic Centers, the conceived tools for the planning, the conception and the methodological process used in the tools elaboration, as also its implementation. The research used a qualitative approach: it is descriptive and it uses the case study technique. The data were gathered from primary and secondary sources, through bibliography, documents, and field researches through semi-structure interviews. The analysis and data interpretation were done by each investigated Academic Center from the analytics categories guided by the specifics goals. We used theoretic fundamental based principles and the university as a study empiric reference based on its structure analysis, organizational processes and institutional strategic plan. We inspected how the strategic planning process was developed throughout the fixed period and how the investigated Academic Centers are from the collected documents and interviews. The theoretical foundation was built from three axis: the Brazilian undergraduate and posgraduate education system; the university itself including its singularity and complexity as an organization; and the planning as a strategic management process. The main results show us that the UFPA has updated regulatory milestones, presenting organizational structure, laws, instructions, manuals and deployed management model that give the strategic planning development conditions beyond its administration, i. e., into its Academic Centers. The centers also present those established milestones and develop the basic planning processes of the institution. Those processes are conceived based on the institutional strategic planning and the managers mainly use the procedural orientation defined by the university management, from where the conceptual foundation is originated and propagated. According to the literature and to the research done in this work, we can conclude that the Academic Centers from the UFPA developed the strategic planning practice. This planning is organized and founded and guided the plans and decisions which avoided the disordered management and, according to the managers, allowed the advances and performance improvement. We can conclude that the UFPA built an important foundation with respect to the management professionalization. On the other hand, we can not conclude that the management practice is consolidated since there are weaknesses into the structuring of the technical teams and there is not any management tool for the implementation of the elaborated plans

Modelo de decisão multicritério para seleções interciclo das universidades novas: estudo na Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte

The discussions wherein develop proposals for university reform in Brazil include, among other things, the conception of the university titled "New University", whose structural origin comes from the bill of higher education reform and unification of the foundations of education European upper (Bologna process). At its core, the Bologna process has imposed a series of transformations, among which, the promotion of mobility, as a stimulus to interinstitutional cooperation to enable an better and bigger qualification of the students. Nevertheless, what we see is that this point is one of the main points made flawed by Brazilian institutions that have adopted this model of higher education. An example is the Bachelor of Science and Technology - BC&T, Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte - UFRN, where there are problems of the internal order, represented by the problem of the reusing of the disciplines, such also of external order, in cases of transfers interinstitutional. Because of this, and knowing that this is a typical problem in which multiple criteria are involved, the aim of this study is to propose a multicriteria model for selection of interciclo of the BC&T of the UFRN which addresses the issue of mobility. For this, this study was of exploratory and study case nature, use as tools of data collection, the bibliographic and documentary research, as well as semi-structured interviews. For the elaboration of the model, were used the five phases most commonly used in the modeling of problems in operational research in a sample of 91 students of BC&T. As a result, we obtained a model that addresses the issue of internal and external mobility of the school and that, moreover, was also more robust and fair than the current model of BC&T and also what is used in other courses of the UFRN, taking into consideration the expected results by the decision makers

Escolha profissional e o perfil dos acadêmicos de administração na modalidade a distância da FURG: um estudo comparativo

A atividade profissional é fundamental para a constituição do sujeito e reprodução da sociedade. Por outro lado, o processo de ensino-aprendizagem, na modalidade a distância, apresenta novos desafios e mudanças substanciais na maneira de se produzir conhecimento. Dessa forma, no presente estudo, analisaram-se dados socioeconômicos dos acadêmicos do curso de administração a distância da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande, com o intuito de traçar seu perfil, fazendo uma análise comparativa com os alunos da modalidade presencial. Trata-se de um estudo quantitativo, no qual se utilizou o tratamento estatístico na análise dos dados, obtidos de questionário e fontes secundárias. Os resultados demonstram que os acadêmicos da modalidade a distância possuem uma média de idade superior à dos alunos do presencial, sendo 63% são responsáveis pelo próprio sustento. Além disso, apenas 11% são oriundos de escolas particulares, ao passo que 25%, no presencial, provêm dessas instituições. Mais de 50%, por sua vez, são filhos de pais com grau de instrução inferior ao ensino fundamental e 31% afirmaram que o fizeram basicamente por ser um curso virtual, indicando que a educação à distância, além de oferecer a possibilidade de qualificação profissional às mais distantes regiões do país, beneficia um público que está entre as camadas mais necessitadas da população.

Inclusão das pessoas com deficiência na universidade: a efetividade do Programa de Apoio aos Estudantes com Necessidades Especiais (PAENE)

O presente trabalho tem por finalidade investigar e analisar as contribuições das ações vinculadas ao Programa de Apoio aos Estudantes com Necessidades Especiais (PAENE), da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande - FURG. O estudo caracteriza-se como qualitativo e documental, de abordagem avaliativa de enfoque interpretativo, realizado por meio de entrevista semiestruturada com 8estudantes com deficiência de diferentes cursos da universidade. As ações do Programa incluem desde o atendimento individual, plantões sociais, reuniões com os bolsistas de acompanhamento e com os alunos com deficiência. Emergiram daanálise das entrevistas as categorias acessibilidade, formação profissional e capacitação docente. Os alunos dizem que o programa é efetivo na universidade, mas ainda precisa ser melhorado. Destacam a importância dos bolsistas e apontam esses como sendo os principais autores da inclusão na universidade. Concluímos que por se tratar de uma demanda nova na Educação Superior, a inclusão vem sendo realizada de maneira lenta e construída com os deficientes que fazem “valer” seus direitos dentro da universidade.

Nice work if you can get it? The changing character of academic labour in Sweden and England

This paper considers recent attempts to introduce managerial reform in higher education. In exploring the issues the paper draws on an interviewing programme conducted with female and male academics in Sweden and England responsible for delivering change: heads of department, heads of division and principal lecturers. The aim is to examine the implications for the day-to-day work of academics arising from the reforms and to consider the gender implications. The paper conceptualises the areas of academic responsibility along the following dimensions identified by the academics themselves: dog work, tough work, care work, real work and nice work. In bringing into sharper focus the harsher realities of academe, and exploring the overlap and connectivity between gender and academic labour, it is argued that intellectual labour is hard work indeed, particularly for women.

Setor público não-estatal : (des)caminhos do controle social e da equidade no acesso aos serviços das organizações sociais de saúde

O controle social, ou democracia direta, refere-se ao acesso à informação e à participação da sociedade civil, organizada ou não, na gestão, implementação de ações e fiscalização das organizações públicas e privadas. O exercício do controle social é um importante instrumento para evitar desvios e impropriedades na execução do gasto público. Com o advento das Organizações Sociais (publicização), nos anos 90, houve um esforço para garantir a consolidação e a ampliação dos espaços de controle social nessas instituições, espaços esses, contudo, não muito eficazes. À luz dessa discussão teórica analisa-se aqui a experiência de uma organização social de saúde, a Associação das Pioneiras Sociais APS) - Hospital Sarah Kubtscheque -, enfatizando-se a efetividade do exercício do controle social em seu conselho de administração. A metodologia baseou-se na análise qualitativa de dados obtidos em entrevistas e em documentos oficiais. __________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT

Construindo novos túneis : subterfúgios das engenheiras para deslocar as fronteiras da divisão sexual da ciência e da tecnologia

O domínio do conhecimento científico é historicamente masculino. Mesmo com a crescente inserção das mulheres nesse campo, pode-se dizer que a lógica de fazer ciência ainda está pautada em valores masculinizados. Nosso trabalho pretende mapear a percepção das engenheiras sobre suas escolhas pelas ciências exatas e por um campo profissional tradicionalmente masculino, a engenharia. A nossa hipótese de trabalho inicial afirmava que as escolhas das engenheiras durante sua trajetória acadêmica e profissional são dificultadas pela forte tendência à perpetuação da divisão sexual da educação superior, da ciência e do trabalho. O objetivo principal da pesquisa foi desvendar os argumentos que levam à naturalização da separação entre cursos de homens e cursos de mulheres, áreas de trabalho femininas e masculinas ainda que dentro da mesma área do saber ou do campo profissional. Para tanto, foi realizado estudo qualitativo com entrevistas semiestruturadas à sete engenheiras de diferentes áreas de uma empresa estatal, sociedade anônima de economia mista, com sede no Distrito Federal, atuante no serviço público de energia elétrica. Observou-se a perpetuação da divisão sexual horizontal e vertical da ciência, tecnologia e do trabalho, que se reinventa nas trajetórias traçadas pelas engenheiras, formando guetos “permitidos” às mulheres, ainda que dentro da própria engenharia. _________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT

Liderazgo y cultura organizacional en Latinoamerica

El presente estudio de corte descriptivo hace una revisión teórica de 68 artículos de 11 países de Latinoamérica con el fin de dar a conocer el panorama organizacional con relación a la cultura organizacional y el liderazgo en la región y cómo este ha ido evolucionando en el tiempo. La metodología utilizada se enfocó en un conteo de frecuencias usando el modelo de liderazgo y cultura organizacional de Bass y Avolio (Bass, 1999) permitiendo ordenar en tres estilos de liderazgo la información encontrada en la revisión teórica, y a su vez cada uno de los liderazgos con sus creencias, éstas tomadas como variables de la cultura organizacional. Finalmente se encontraron diferentes tipos de tendencias a nivel de los tipos de liderazgo implementados en las organizaciones y la cultura organizacional que se adopta. Se plantea la necesidad de profundizar más y de forma empírica en la temática planteada para que se conozcan las transformaciones que se han dado en el contexto organizacional y el impacto sea mayor en un futuro cercano.
