Aiming at understanding the representations that professors of Social Work program build on low-income students, this paper seeks to provide information to assist in the education of this population. The survey was developed in a private college based in downtown São Paulo. By adopting the psychosocial perspective of social representations theory, this investigation relied on the methodological strategy of interviews and questionnaires in order to investigate a universe of 14 professors and 600 students. Systematization of information and results categorization were supported by NVivo software and both were carried out in accordance with the procedures of content analysis. The study intended to identify elements which foment reflection on educational practices in the context of university courses, in order to obtain information that would contribute to the proposal of teacher training strategies for higher education. The themes identified by the survey circulate mainly on two axes of non-exclusive representation: one focused on speeches that reject the term "low-income" as a student qualifier and the other that identifies students as users of social service; representations that guide teaching practices and can contribute to the realization of self-fulfilling prophecies.

Palavras-chave : social representation; poverty; higher education; teacher student interaction; teacher education.
