History
De Programa de Pós Graduação em Educação
The Graduate Program in Education (PPGEd) of the Federal University of Campina Grande (UFCG), Campina Grande campus , is the result of more than 35 years of experience in teaching, research and extension of the Academic Education Unit (UAEd), whose creation precedes the very institution of UFCG. UAEd has wide participation and leadership in Basic Education and Higher Education in the Northeast region, being one of the pioneers, in Brazil, to offer in the Pedagogy course the training of teachers to work in the early years of elementary school.
In this sense, the Academic Master's is characterized by theoreticalmethodological deepening in two lines of research: a) Educational History, Policy and Management; b) Educational Practices and Diversity. These Lines seek to meet, jointly, the commitment to the critical production of knowledge and the ethical-academic training of educators and researchers, aiming to contribute to the understanding and transformation of the Brazilian socio-educational reality, especially at the regional level.
Having research as a formative principle, our Academic Master's aims to train professionals who favor the construction and reconstruction of knowledge in the area of education with autonomy, with the ability to critically analyze and understand different educational contexts and who promote the articulation between production and the dissemination of knowledge, axes considered fundamental to the intervention in reality itself.
