Dissertação (Mestrado em Educação) - Universidade Federal de Goiás, Goiânia, 2018.http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/tede/handle/tede/8373The present study is linked to the State, Policies, and History of Education research line from the graduate program in Education of UFG. Its main theme is “the creation of the Federal Education Network of Scientific and Technological Professional Education (RFECPT) and the creation of the Federal Institute of Mato Grosso (IFMT)”. This process is considered important because it allows the access to the professional education targeted to the socioeconomic reality of each region served by the institute. In this sense, this research focuses not only to the consolidation of the Federal Network in the state of Mato Grosso but it also questions: which were the political-administrative elements that influenced the expansion in the process of implementation of the IFMT in Mato Grosso? Thus, the research aims to identify and problematize such public policies and its implications in the IFMT area of influence, and also to analyze the objectives of diversification of formation areas, arising from the restructuring of the Federal Education Network of Education, Science and Technology of Mato Grosso, and to examine if the expansion to the countryside coheres with the reality of the socioeconomic aspects of the regions in which it was installed. That way, this is a bibliographic study of qualitative approach, for which were realized a survey of documental information made available by the institutions and legislation available in the government database. The study of authors who studied the theme, such as Pacheco, Machado, Bordignon, Grabowski, Jucá, Padim, Ramos, Silva, Schmidt, Frigotto, Libâneo, Oliveira and Toschi, among others, were also important for the researching basis. It was found that the expansion process was strategically treated by the federal government and institutional managers so that the institution would comply with the purpose to which it was created. Therefore, all the movement on behalf of the expansion were targeted to local and regional aspects.application/pdfAcesso AbertoEducação para o trabalhoInteriorizaçãoExpansão da rede federalEducation for workInteriorizationFederal network expansionCIENCIAS HUMANAS::EDUCACAODissertação
