ABSTRACT
The objective of this study is to research and analise the way the Brazilian military regime
interfered with the Teaching Formation process in Faculdade de Filosofia, Ciências e Letras
Santo Tomás de Aquino, FAFI/FISTA in Uberaba MG, within the period of 1964 to 1980,
when FIUBE/UNIUBE took over its administration. At that time, this Institution became a
reference in Teaching Formation in the region, and that’s why the formation of teachers at
FISTA during the military regime is the object of this research. Considering the many ways
the educational policies in the military regime influenced education in Brazil, the problem
was defined as follows to which extent did the military regime influence the Teaching
Formation Program at FAFI/FISTA? To build the hypothesis for this study, the repressive
period of the military regime was taken into account in which professors and students at
FISTA suffered political pressure which was this way defined: reforms based on technicalities
due to MEC/USAID imposition, influenced the formation of teachers at FISTA, affecting the
college’s quality of program which was christian humanist driven. This historicaldocumentary
research was based on a theoretical reference under a materialist approach. For
further enrichment of this study, a vast range of documents were researched – in which
constitutes its methodology, as well as the use of other resources such as interviews, written
and oral reports from students and former teachers. The conclusion is that the model imposed
by international organizations in Brazil, during the military regime, did influence teachers at
FISTA.
