School Evasion in Higher Education: Quantitative Analysis in the Degree in Physics of IFPA Campus Bragança

Abstract School dropout is a phenomenon that directly affects educational institutions and causes various academic, social and economic damages. Studying the subject, we noticed that several students entering the period from 2009 to 2014, have escaped from the Licentiate degree in Physics of the IFPA campus Bragança. Analyzing this context, identify and analyze the percentage of students evaded in said course. The data analyzed were obtained through the Synopsis of Higher Education and the Academic Secretary of IFPA. The results show that dropout in the analyzed course overlaps the national averages and exposes the need to intensify public policies to guarantee the access, permanence and success of incoming students.

摘要 学生辍学是直接影响教育机构，并引发多维度学术、社会与经济损失的现象。本研究在开展相关议题探索时发现，2009至2014年入学的多名学生，从巴西帕拉联邦理工学院（IFPA）布拉干萨校区的物理学学士学位项目中中途辍学。基于此背景，我们对该课程的学生辍学率进行了识别与量化分析。本次分析所用数据来源于巴西帕拉联邦理工学院（IFPA）的高等教育概览（Synopsis of Higher Education）与教务秘书处。研究结果显示，该课程的学生辍学率高于全国平均水平，这凸显出亟需强化公共政策，以保障新生的入学机会、在校留存与学业完成。
