This article presents and discusses an agronomy course focused on agrarian reform developed by São Carlos Federal University (UFSCar) in São Paulo state. The paper shows the main theoretical and methodological aspects that guided the course focused on familiar agriculture from sustainable production paradigm that preserves the environment. It highlights the countryside social movements, the course implementation and some results. The analysis considers this experience as an indicator that the public university can serve the grassroots classes instead of upper-middleclass as it occurs in Brazil.
