This dissertation is inserted in the context of the theme of the internationalization of Higher Education and the implications of such movement in the scope of Postgraduate Programs, more specifically those that focus on Regional Development. Therefore, it aims to analyze the existing relationships between the strategies and internationalization actions carried out by the Graduate Programs in Regional Development and possible intersections with Science and Technology policies in the Brazilian context. To do so, it was sought a theoretical basis with authors who could bring historical and current subsidies on the subject, as well as data and information in relevant organs and institutions with political force, in the national and international dimensions. In this way, it was sought to show intentions, contradictions and asymmetries from an extended approach and conceptions of scholars of the subject, through a historical panorama that follows until a reality constituted of tensions, especially in relation to the competitive form as the subject has been treated globally, as well as, faced with the perceived political uncertainties and equivocations at the national level. Although the theme of internationalization of Higher Education is not new, the fact is that among the contemporary movements in this sense, the same has intensified to the point of acquiring strategic and urgent status. Faced with such a perspective, the research is based on the conception that the problem in question is in the heart of the discussions inherent to the CTS field - Science, Technology and Society, as well as seeking to establish possible dialogues with the Science and Technology Policies (PCT). In terms of approach, the study is based on the dialogue of knowledge and interdisciplinarity as theoretical and methodological precautions. The method used was the Content Analysis, based on documentary analysis, secondary data and semi-structured interviews with coordinators of Courses and qualified subjects indicated by them. The perceptions obtained show that in relation to international partnerships, the programs studied are pursuing their own strategies, mainly through their teachers and their contacts abroad. In turn, it is clear that the programs resent greater support from PCTs , more specifically those assigned to CAPES and to the PLURD Area itself. In this sense, evaluation and resources seem to be playing a reverse role to what they should have, that is, they have become elements of pressure and restraint, rather than encouragement and support. Added to this is the regionalized context of the programs surveyed, established within a local-global relationship, which further accentuates the difficulties faced by the obstacles of internationalization. In this scenario, the actions and strategies of internationalization of the researched programs are still incipient, although there is interest in this, while the implications of PCTs in this sense, have not had the leading role that was expected. Therefore, the theme of internationalization in the programs investigated presents itself in a scenario of tensions where local interest, strategies and actions are present, even if they are incipient. However, permeated by limitations and difficulties imposed by their peripheral positions, by the fragility of policies and scarce resources. |
