This article aims to analyze the decision-making process on the foundation of the University College in the Rural University of Minas Gerais State (UREMG) between 1964 and 1965. Low funding, the doubt about the nature of secondary education, and the need to meet the capital demands marked the dispute between the foundation of the University College and the maintenance of the Agrotechnic. The research carried out from the consultation of documents from the Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV) Historical Archive indicates that the maintenance of the agrotechnical course was overcome by the argument of the lack of resources and by the inefficiency of the technical course in keeping the young people away from the dispute for the few vacancies of higher education. The analysis indicates the dispute between capital and labor in the definition of a training model for young Brazilian.

Keywords : University College, Agricultural Technician Course, technical education, high school; Minas Gerais.
