Produtos técnicos e tecnológicos do Programa de Pós-graduação em Gestão nas Organizações Aprendentes da Universidade Federal da Paraíba

Abstract

Technical and Technological Products (PTTs) play a strategic role in professional master's programs because they express the practical application of academic knowledge in proposing innovative and relevant solutions for the market and society. In this context, this research analyzes the PTTs developed in the Postgraduate Program in Management in Learning Organizations of the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB) based on the guidelines of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES). It is characterized as exploratory, netnographic and descriptive research, employing the qualitative approach and categorical content analysis for data treatment. Initially, a survey was carried out in the Institutional Repository of all the final works of the program, followed by a selection of those that presented some PTT in their composition. Subsequently, these products were classified according to the 12 typologies recognized by CAPES for area 27 - Public and Business Administration, Accounting Sciences and Tourism and, at the end, an interpretative analysis of the data. As a result, 62 PTTs were identified, with a predominance of the Conclusive Technical Report and Non-patentable Process/Technology and Product/Material typologies, with medium innovative content. It is concluded that the PPGOA has demonstrated significant advances in technical-technological production and that there are opportunities to further strengthen the typological diversity and visibility of PTTs as instruments of institutional and social transformation. As a practical contribution, we present a Folder that brings together guidelines on the PTTs of area 27 and a Digital Portfolio containing all the technical and technological productions of the program.
