Abstract

ALMEIDA, Gabriel Swahili Sales de. The interdisciplinarity in the new curricular configurations of the Brazilian higher education: the case of the BI of the UFBA. Eccos Rev. Cient. [online]. 2018, n.47, pp.355-374.  Epub June 10, 2019. ISSN 1983-9278.  https://doi.org/10.5585/eccos.n47.7936.

The contemporary university has encountered social, epistemological and structural challenges that require a profound reflection on its status and social function. With the objective of understanding these new configurations, this article seeks to discuss the meanings of interdisciplinarity in the Bacharelados Interdisciplinares (Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Programs) of the Universidade Federal da Bahia (Federal University of Bahia) from a documentary research of the process of creation of these. Federal level legislation, resolutions, documents and Institutional Development Plan of UFBA and reference documents for BI were used as sources, such as the Political Pedagogical Projects, covering the period from 2006 to 2016. From the analysis, we could conclude that the absence of an institutional policy specifically focused on interdisciplinarity imposed on the BI, a project initially thought as a means of reformulating the university, that were formatted to fit the same, operating mainly on an institutional disciplinary frame.
