This article aimed to understand the crisis in teaching degrees, considering their multiple expressions in Brazil over the past two decades. The research focused on four axes: discourses on teacher education and the teaching profession in Brazil; the decline in enrollment in teaching degree programs; student financial aid policies; and, finally, the expansion of Distance Education. The research was conducted based on documents collected from the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (INEP), particularly data from the Higher Education Census (2009-2018). Regarding the research problem, authors such as Frigotto (2015) and Harvey (2008) were used as references. In light of this, it was concluded that the crisis in teaching degrees manifests in several ways, namely: through the increasing devaluation suffered over the past decades, policies and new public management approaches, social discredit, lack of attractiveness, the precariousness of the public school environment, and the abandonment of the profession.

Palabras clave : teaching degrees; crisis; Brazil.
