SUMMARY:

This work addresses the budgetary framework of UFRN from the perspective of funding academic units located in the interior. It is anchored, as a starting point, in the institution's own diagnosis, which recommended in an activity report produced by the Evaluation Committee of the Model, the discussion of alternative forms of funding for the academic units based in the interior. From this perspective, the research explores the revenues and expenses of the selected academic units in order to understand their budgetary profiles. Subsequently, it differentiates between the budget distributed and executed by academic unit, and only then delves into the resource allocation model adopted at UFRN, with the purpose of verifying the model's behavior for different values assigned to the "Off-Campus Bonus" coefficient, the sole component of the model exclusively intended for funding units based in the interior. Regarding its design, the research is situated in the field of Applied Social Sciences, with a quantitative approach, applied nature, and descriptive-exploratory objectives. It employs a case study methodology based on institutional documentary sources. The data analysis utilizes descriptive statistics with the application of percentile analysis techniques and is supported by IBM SPSS software. In the final phase, it conducts testing of values for the "Off-Campus Bonus" coefficient using annualized spreadsheets from the Planning Prorectorate. The research results indicate that the selected academic units present distinct budgetary profiles, which could lead to inequalities in resource distribution. Furthermore, the budgetary matrix adopted by UFRN does not adequately address the specificities of the academic units based in the interior, potentially compromising the quality of education and research in these regions. From this perspective, the results of this work suggest that it is possible to adjust the budgetary matrix to equalize resource distribution among the units and restore budgetary amounts in favor of those based in the interior, in order to ensure equity in resource distribution and strengthen higher education throughout the state.
