The female academic trajectory in STEM based on UFRN databases
Academic trajectory, women, STEM.
The general objective of this research is to investigate the academic life trajectory of girls from the Bachelor of Science and Technology course at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte - UFRN, using the institutions own database. The research has a descriptive character, as it sought to know more deeply the academic trajectory aspects of the students of the BCT course. For this, she used materials that have already undergone analytical treatment, such as books and articles, and also made use of data that has not yet been properly treated. The population consisted of students who entered BCT in a 3 (three) year time horizon, from 2014 to 2017. The data were collected in the data repositories for the institution itself and will be treated using descriptive statistics. At the end of the research, it was possible to make an intervention proposal to reverse the situation of little female representation in the course of BCT. To this end, the institutional actions carried out by Carnegie Mellon University were adapted to the UFRN reality.
