Mathematics degrees and the Enade Concept in 2021

Abstract

In this article, the discussions revolve around the evaluation of undergraduate courses in mathematics about the Enade Concept of the 2021 edition. Thus, the main objective was to position these courses according to the respective Enade Concept obtained in this edition. To this end, a methodology with a mixed approach was used, which encompasses both qualitative and quantitative analysis. In addition, a literature review, a documentary research and a search for data and information made available by the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research – Anísio Teixeira – Inep were carried out. From a quantitative point of view, the value for the Enade Concept ranges from 1 to 5, with 3 being the minimum "acceptable" value. The results showed a relatively low percentage of excellence in mathematics undergraduate courses in the context of the Enade Concept, although the percentage of courses with the acceptable Enade Concept was relatively high. They also pointed out evidence of advances in the qualities of certain courses, as well as needs for improvement in others.
