CARVALHO, Renata Ramos da Silva and AMARAL, Nelson Cardoso. THE BRAZILIAN STATE UNIVERSITIES FUNDING: THE SPENDING PER-STUDENT, THE INSTITUTIONAL ASYMMETRIES, AND THE REGIONAL INEQUALITIES. Eccos Rev. Cient. [online]. 2021, n.57, e10777. Epub Feb 05, 2024. ISSN 1983-9278. https://doi.org/10.5585/eccos.n57.10777.
The article presents a research result that verified the average spending per-student of the Brazilian State Universities (UEs), by state of the federation, in the period between 2012 and 2016. As a methodological reference, the article presents the approach proposed by Amaral and Pinto (2010), statistical information of the UEs present in the data (statistical abstracts and microdata) of the National Institute for Educational Studies and Research "Anísio Teixeira" (Inep), and of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (Capes). The results obtained show that the average spending per-student of the UEs are asymmetrical and reveal existing regional inequalities regarding the performance of these institutions in the higher education context of the country.
