An attempt to improve the training of teachers in Brazil was based on the implementation of public policies. Despite the disconnection of the undergraduate and baccalaureate degrees from the chemistry course, what still prevails in most universities is a night degree that ends up having a strong "baccalaureate" nature. For many of the professionals who work in teacher education are bachelors in chemistry, and many are not committed to the training of future teachers, because they prioritize the area of research that has been formed or they turn their attention to the industry. This issue is complex and needs to be addressed systematically and continuously by higher education institutions. Faced with this concern, the present article aimed to investigate the reasons that have led undergraduate students in Chemistry of the Universidad Technological Federal do Paraná to abandon this course. The qualitative research was carried out through the application of an open questionnaire for ten ex-students in the periods from 2011 to 2016. The data obtained were treated, providing the general interpretation and information about. |
