ARAUJO, Renato Santos  y  VIANNA, Deise Miranda. A carência de professores de ciências e matemática na educação básica e a ampliação das vagas no ensino superior. Ciência educ. [online]. 2011, vol.17, n.04, pp.807-822. ISSN 1516-7313.

This study starts with the statistics of Instituto Nacional de Estudos e Pesquisas Anísio Teixeira on higher education to answer some questions that involve the lack of teachers in the country, the growth of vacancies in the undergraduate on-site and distance courses and the estimates for the necessary vacancies so that the country can form licentiates in enough numbers to provide basic education. Methodologically this work is a document study and is based on a systematized analysis of documents, statistics and articles in the literature. The statistical data on vacancies, candidates, entrance, registrations and graduation are then presented and discussed looking for elements to base the considerations about the public politics in the area. The conclusions point to complementary measures for the enlargement of vacancies in degree courses which are necessary for the solution of the lack of teachers in Brazil.
