Abstract

This work aims the public policy in higher education field, arguing the affirmative action policies focusing on the individuals involved in this policy in the nursing course at the Federal University of Mato Grosso campus of Sinop. It presents as a general matter to understand how the student benefited from affirmative action programs is seen and how it is seen by the Academic Management System, by colleagues and professors in UFMT / Sinop nursing course. We carried out a theoretical and document capture on official UNESCO documents through analyzes regarding the conferences held by the entity since 1990, researched to fight and influence of the Black Movement in Brazil and the legislation dealing with Affirmative Action policies in the country to composite the research, there was also a smattering of adhesion of the Federal public institutions affirmative action policies. Finally interviews were conducted with students entering the affirmative action and broad competition in the school year 2012 and 2013/1 and the teachers who taught classes on the first and second half semester of the term. The research result shows the female predominance among both students and teachers, and this feature was also presented in the freshman affirmative action policies, we realize that the entrant by affirmative action presented by Academic Management System differs in parts than it exposes, especially when we analyze your choice facing profession. SIGA claims that nursing is the first choice of them, however in interviews was noticed that this student chooses the profession at the expense of non-approval and/or lower grade in other courses (75% medicine, dentistry 25%). Parents are essential for entry and remained of students in higher education. When we analyze the freshman wide competition for students and faculty members we identified the lack of discussion of the subject at the study site since few are those who know the adoption of such policy, getting the most superficial information, understanding that the quota system is not a political ticket deepening on the discussion. Generally, the affirmative action policies are better accepted when they use social criteria, both by teachers and by students entering through affirmative action and huge competition, but students are more tolerant to analyze the policies. It's unanimous among them the positions that need greater investments in public school. It is evidenced that the newly admitted student through affirmative action goes unnoticed in the academic space and his/her specific needs as a result are not met.
