The article tries to understand education and the knowledge production process of undergraduate and graduate students in the context of the intensification of academic productivity through the analysis of the students’ strategies and actions. A survey was conducted with students from a public university. The research had a qualitative approach and data analysis was based on Bourdieu and on critical perspectives on education. The students’ decision to choose activities legitimized by the university is based on the instrumentality of school success. It was found that research activities are essential for the academic, professional and personal education of students, however, their scientific practice has shown to be intensified and productivist, guided by the mercantilization of knowledge. The education of university students is based on the hegemony of productive sociability and the normalization of productivism, indicating recognition of the hierarchy, subsumed under rules as a strategy for insertion in the academic field.

Palabras clave : Academic Education; Production of Knowledge; Scientific Field.
