A Comparative Study Between Brazil and Portugal
DOI: 10.36315/2019v2end027 Education and New Developments 2019 OVERVIEW OF DESIGN TEACHING ON ENGINEERING COURSES: A COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN BRAZIL AND PORTUGAL Claudia Alquezar Facca1, Jorge Lino Alves2, & Ana Mae Barbosa3 1Engineering School, Mauá Institute of Technology (Brazil); PPG Design, Anhembi Morumbi University (Brazil); Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto (Portugal) 2INEGI, Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto (Portugal) 3PPG Design, Anhembi Morumbi University (Brazil) Abstract This paper presents an overview of design teaching in the undergraduate engineering courses at the main institutions of higher education in Brazil and Portugal. In order to carry out the comparative study, the curricula of the main engineering courses in Brazil and Portugal were used. The aim of the research is to first analyze how the design, as a disciplinary content, is being introduced in the engineering courses in both countries. In a second moment, a comparative analysis will be made between the information collected in Brazil and in Portugal in order to register how this conjugation is occurring and whether there is some similarity or not in the way of design approach in the engineering courses in each country. As a result, it is discussed how the design can collaborate with the interdisciplinarity between these areas and contribute with the formation of the new competences of the engineer. Keywords: Education, design, engineering, Brazil, Portugal. 1. Introduction Education is the object of study, concern, focus, strategy and discussion in all the nations of the globe and reflects the intense changes the world has witnessed in the last decades of the 20th century, beginning with the two great wars, then the expansion of capitalism and the cultural and economic globalization in the 21th century. -

Contrasting Paths to Internationalization of Southern Cone Political Scientists
Politólogos on the Run: Contrasting Paths to Internationalization of Southern Cone Political Scientists Flavia Freidenberg Andrés Malamud ABSTRACT Political scientists from the Southern Cone have enriched the discipline with pio- neering work. Many of them went into exile for political reasons, and thus pro- duced part of their work abroad. Although Latin American political science has professionalized since the 1980s, many scholars still emigrate for study and employment. Argentines most numerously seek academic careers abroad, while Brazil has many more domestic doctorates and returns home after doctoral stud- ies abroad. Uruguayans emigrate in proportionally high numbers and tend to settle in Latin American countries, while the number of Chileans and Paraguayans abroad is minimal. These contrasting patterns are explained by reference to fac- tors such as the availability of high-quality doctoral courses, financing for post- graduate studies, and the absorptive capacity of national academic markets. Para- doxically, the size and performance of the diasporas may increase rather than reduce the visibility and impact of national political science communities. THE PUZZLE n August 8, 2008, the Latin American Association of Political Science met in O San José, Costa Rica, and renewed its Executive Council. Five Argentines, three Brazilians, and two Uruguayans were elected to the 24-member body. Remarkably, four of the Argentines and one Uruguayan lived abroad, while all the Brazilians resided in their home country. Something similar had happened in Hamburg in May of that year, at the launching of the project to found the Jour- nal of Politics in Latin America: while the five Argentines and the only Uruguayan participant lived abroad, all the Brazilians were living in Brazil. -
