Internationalization is inherent to the university. However, it was not until the last century that the production on this subject has been expanding and embraces not only the sciences, but the higher education generally. This article analyzes what has been written about internationalization of higher education in researches in Brazil, between 2011 and 2014. The methodology uses the principles of the state of the knowledge and mainly relies on the Capes database of dissertations. The results demonstrate the complexity and ambiguity of the concept internationalization of higher education and a small number of theses and dissertations, in graduate programs of different areas, mainly in the humanities and applied social sciences, distributed in an almost similar manner, between the global/regional, national and institutional dimensions. The debate about the thematic categories of understanding of production on the internationalization of higher education under the perspective of young researchers deserves special attention.

Keywords : Internationalization of higher education; State of the knowledge; Theses and dissertations; Brazil..
