SUMMARY:

The growing transformation of Higher Education in Brazil has concomitantly brought about the interest and relevance of knowing and understanding better about the motivations, meanings, and senses that college students have of themselves and of their academic life. In this perspective, it has the intention to investigate how university students, between the 6th and 10th period of the Pedagogy course at UFRN, in presential modality, at Natal campus, developed their paths of academic socialization in graduation and how they built their social strategies to stay and finish the course. The locus of the research is UFRN, with undergraduate students of the Pedagogy course. Initially, 90 questionnaires were applied to students (a little more than 10% of the total number of students with active enrollment in the semester of 2019.2) of the Pedagogy course of the UFRN, in-class modality, to draw a profile of the student body. From this part of the population, we selected 6 research participants, from several selection criteria, for the semi-structured interview stage. From the analysis of the questionnaires and the interviews, it was possible to elaborate the four main points of the dissertation: the first point concerns the individual socialization and the gregarious socialization, considering them respectively as the form of socialization with a single person as emotional support, and the second as a more group socialization. The second point concerns the phases of experience in Higher Education, which are: time of euphoria, time of change, time of demotivation, and time of confirmation. The third point concerns the academic socialization level of these students, which can be: well socialized, more or less socialized, or not socialized at all. And, finally, the satisfaction with their socialization in the University environment, where the students can be satisfied, not very satisfied, or not satisfied at all. These points reveal deeper understandings about students' lives in academia, taking into consideration mainly the forms and levels of academic socialization. One of the revelations about academic socialization and student life is that students, no matter how much they are considered with little or no socialization, still have social support points to pursue their path in the course. Furthermore, another revelation was the difference between the trajectories of the students considered to have more intense socialization and the trajectories of the students with less intense socialization. It was evident that the well-socialized students felt comfortable in academic life, while the second group was marked by several events considered by them as difficult moments, inside and outside the University, which even led them to think about quitting the course. It was understood, finally, that the socialization of the Pedagogy course students occurs in several ways and intensities, being necessary to consider equally the importance of conviviality spaces, that promote besides places where the socialization can happen, moments so that the students can talk about their difficulties and frustrations in the course.
