This article aims to discuss curriculum management in Higher Education, describing and analyzing the collective, internal and systematic processes of curriculum revision in Higher Education concerning to the Federal University of Espírito Santo - (UFES), Brazil. The development of the reflections required us to take as a starting point the University, considering its creation, its concept and its perspectives. Discussing the curriculum in its contexts, paths and misleading paths in a public university institution located in the smallest and the least rich southeast state, as we propose, required considerations of: a) concept, meaning and organizational possibilities of the curriculum in Higher Education, and specifically, at the University; b) the paths and perspectives of UFES in the curriculum organization process. Thereby, our reflections considered these elements and were made from the examination of documents and interview content. The study allowed us to conclude that it is necessary to problematize the pseudo-neutrality of educational indicators, their ability to induce curricular practices in Higher Education; to problematize the expropriation of teachers’ curriculum autonomy and their accountability for educational outcomes; and also to affirm the contradictory character of the collective and collegiate processes of curricular decision in the relations with the individual and collective subjects responsible for conceiving, elaborating, practicing and evaluating curriculum in Higher Education.

Palabras clave : Curriculum management; Higher Education; Curriculum; Evaluation.
