Research in the Graduate Program in Education at Universidade Tiradentes from a self-assessment perspective: a study of theses and dissertations (2011-2023).

This article mapped the theses and dissertations produced within the Graduate Program in Education at Universidade Tiradentes (UNIT), linked to its two research lines-Education and Communication, and Education and Teacher Training-between 2011 and 2023, aiming to analyze the academic output within this time frame. The study sought to investigate: What was produced in each research line during the period? Are the theses and dissertations aligned with the investigative scope of each line? This is a quantitative and qualitative study, which adopted as its corpus a total of 219 dissertations and 52 theses developed within the aforementioned lines. The works demonstrate, for the most part, strong alignment with the investigative scope of the lines, contributing to discussions relevant to the Program’s area of concentration and to the research lines’ syllabi.

Keywords : Education and communication; Education and teacher training; Theses and dissertations.
