OLIVEIRA, Olívia Chaves de. The democratization of higher education and the student assistance actions in the history of the Rural Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRRJ). 2021. 260p. THESIS (Doctorate degree in Education). Institute of Education/Multidisciplinary Institute, Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro, Seropédica, RJ. 2021.

This doctoral research focuses on the study of the student assistance program at the Rural Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRRJ) whose general goal is to investigate the history of this assistance at UFRRJ and the accession of this institution to the democratization of higher education policies flourished in the following Presidents´governments: Fernando Henrique Cardoso, Luís Inácio Lula da Silva, Dilma Rousseff e Michel Temer. The temporal period of this paper is dated from 1995 to 2018 which specially analyzes the expansion and the democratization policies of brazilian higher education, by including the undergraduate students ´access and permanece in public universities over the above time period. Hence, this study is a qualitative research, an exploratory and descriptive one, which uses for its data survey not only bibliographic; documental researches but also interviews with the student assistance program managers at UFRRJ. The epistemological option of this paper relies on categories of analysis covered by Pierre Bourdieu and his reflexive sociology such as: cultural capital, social capital, economic capital and habitus. The theoretical part of this research, explores the concept of the democratization of higher education (access, permanence and expansion) and student assistance program that presents as its background The National Student Assistance Program over the historical path of UFRRJ. Thus, this study is divided into six chapters. The chapters I, II e III are related to the categories of analysis that were chosen for this scope in reference to Bourdieu; from the expansion and the democratization of higher education over each political time attached to the time period of this paper to the discussion about the students´ access; permanence policies and their requirements in the student assistance program. In the chapter IV, we broach the student assistance program records and the changes occurred in the undergraduate students´profile as the result of the students´ access and permanence policies inserted by the federal government. In the Chapter V, we present the UFRRJ records under the view of this institutional trajectory in consonance with the student assistance program. In the chapter VI, we expose the analysis regarding the materialization of public policies in relation to the student assistance program and to the democratization of higher education at the Rural Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. Therefore, this research concludes that the student assistance program is an essential educational public policy used to provide to students, who present social vunerability, their permanence in universities. It also highlights, throught the focal analysis of students´access and permanence in there, the limits associated with the democratization of higher education in public universities, mainly at UFRRJ, where this study was developed.
