Resumen
CANAVERAL, Inmaculada Cristina Puertas y SA, Thiago Antônio de Oliveira. REUNI: Expansion, segmentation and institutional determination of dropout. Case study at Unifal-MG. Eccos Rev. Cient. [online]. 2017, n.44, pp.93-115. Epub 19-Jun-2019. ISSN 1983-9278. https://doi.org/10.5585/eccos.n44.7899.
Despite of all enlargement and inclusion REUNI has provided, institutional determinants imply in academic spots filling, causing inner segmentation at universities. The objectives in this article were 1- to check out the hypothesis that the same institutional factors that influence in social determination of access to majors also influence in dropout decision; and, if it’s confirmed, 2- to explain how those factors act in dropout decision. We’ve analyzed the set of students who dropped out in the main campus of Alfenas Federal University. Data shows that those institutional determinants of access also influence in dropping out, helping preserve an “academic aristocracy” that occupies disputed majors and maintain others limited to less desired majors. Dropping out, in situations like that, isn’t due to elimination, but to giving up a major one isn’t interested in, although it was the only possible one to be accessed. All in all, it’s an example of a non-including, insufficient and, therefore, temporary inclusion.
