This article aimed to present the conceptions of undergraduate students in Pedagogy, from a public university in São Paulo, about the concept of gender, relating the concepts evidenced in their conceptions with the production of feminist gender literature. For such, it explores results obtained from an open questionnaire, using the technique of Content Analysis (CA). The participant sample consisted of 165 subjects (N=165), enrolled in the initial and final years of the course, which set the research, which attributed to the investigation the cross-sectional research design. It is noteworthy that the conceptions of the undergraduate students about the concept of gender were distributed in five main concepts: in conception 1) polysemic; 2) biologizing and religious; 3) functionalist; 4) identity; and 5) associated with sexuality. It is concluded that the participants do not have a formation in gender based on the scientific knowledge coming from the productions of the feminist gender literature, with the exception of those who understand gender in the identitarian and functionalist perspectives, but that show themselves in fragile notions and without the evocation of a certain theory or author of the literature.
