O papel dos stricto sensu em administração da PUCRS e UCS, na formação de empreendedores : a visão dos alunos egressos

Abstract

Stricto sensu in the administration are regulated by CAPES - Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education, which advocates for quality, for both uses of triennial evaluations. Each program creates its own line of research, but the focus is still the quality of teacher training, although there is, mainly, in UCS and PUCRS the search for training of entrepreneurs. In order to verify the role of study in Masters courses in the training of entrepreneurs, this paper sought from the analysis of literature on the subject, to characterize the dimensions of entrepreneurship, the development of postgraduate studies, to identify the universities and the Masters under study, as well as sizing the alumni to be searched and to compare information collected from each master. To reach these objectives, it was used the methodology of case study, exploratory, descriptive and multiple cases. It was used a data collection instrument applied to all graduates, although not all answered, it was chosen to use the total return, and for which the sample was considered representative, it was calculated considering the same sampling error of 10% but can not be considered biased, because all individuals had the same chance of being surveyed. By having the data, it was opted for an exploratory analysis, for later comparison, a comparative analysis, considering a significance level of 5%, in other words, the maximum probability of accidentally rejecting a true null hypothesis, whereas the measurement of estimated degree to which the result is true. Thus, it was concluded that the masters in the study are complying with the proposal being considered by researchers as trainers of entrepreneurs, since the average of all applied questions were better than the third, least important to consider the training of entrepreneurs because according to the Likert scale used, the value 3 refers to "neither agree nor disagree", or neutral, so it is important to be greater than or equal to 3, below this value is considered disagreeing with the propositions surveyed by the construct used. Besides collecting the information to verify the role of masters in the training of entrepreneurs, the dissertation focused on filling gaps in the knowledge area of that subject, in order to contribute in a scientific way with the dissemination of new theories as well as to add new studies on the subject.
