OLIVEIRA, Paulo de Tarso    VIDAL, Maria Eunice Barbosa. Institutional Implications in the Articulation of Interdisciplinarity in Higher Education: a Study of Pedagogical Projects. []. , 7, pp.296-303.   24--2021. ISSN 2184-7770.  https://doi.org/10.36367/ntqr.7.2021.296-303.

This investigation involves the basic question of how the need for an interdisciplinary experience is dealt with in higher education pedagogical projects. The choice is justified by the need to understand interdisciplinarity as a demand for institutions. The general objective is to broaden the understanding of the institutional path of the general interdisciplinarity propositions of the Curricular Guidelines until their concreteness in academic practices. Specifically, it is to describe and interpret aspects of the concepts of interdisciplinarity contained in the pedagogical projects of the courses. The methodology used involves data collection and interpretation. The data will be collected in pedagogical projects available on the websites of university institutions located in a defined region. For the interpretation, preliminary categories of analysis were established that encompass specific characteristics of the pedagogical projects, as well as the correspondences referring to the Curricular Guidelines, to the differences and similarities between projects of different graduation modalities, regarding the interdisciplinarity. Such categories are: (i) correspondence in relation to the respective Curricular Guideline; (ii) theoretical / practical basis; (iii) consistency: coherence / contradiction between the interdisciplinary proposal and other conceptions and propositions of the course; (iv) forecasting the degree and intensity of individual and institutional involvement in interdisciplinary actions; (v) similarity / differentiation of the concepts of interdisciplinarities between projects in the areas of Human Sciences, Exact and Technological, Biologica Sciences; (vi) similarity / differentiation of the concepts of interdisciplinarity between projects of different graduation modalities: bachelor’s degree, licentiate degree, training of technologists. The results so far are restricted to the construction of a theoretical framework and the instrumental for the analysis of the data.
