TEACHING PUBLIC MANAGEMENT IN BACHELOR'S IN ADMINISTRATION IN THE STATE OF PARANÁ WHAT DOES CURRICULUM ANALYSIS HAVE TO TELL US?

Abstract

This study evaluated teaching techniques and tools related to public management in the curricula of Bachelor's degrees in Administration offered in the State of Paraná. Our sources were the registration at E-Mec and the institutional websites. We raised the course profiles and researched if there are disciplines related to Public Administration in the curricular matrices. We evaluated 286-course offerings in the State and obtained 226 curricular matrices. The provision of training in the area is predominantly the responsibility of the private sector in the State. Regarding the teaching modality, 65% of the offers are in person, and 35% are in the distance format. Regarding the performance at ENADE, 80% of the courses already evaluated in that exam obtained a grade equal to or less than 3, with no significant differences in performance for on-site and distance learning modalities. Of the 226 curricula obtained, 166 do not offer disciplines aimed at Public Administration. Part of the courses (12) do so in an optional way, highlighting the still incipient concern of educational institutions with specific training in the Public area, despite the growing importance of the Public Sector in the administrator field of activity.
