Where are we from and where are we? The academic education of Occupational Therapy professors that are working at public Universities in Northeast Brazil

“…Although there has recently been a great achievement for occupational therapy, with the creation of two new master's degrees in the Southeast in 2019 (the Professional Master's in Occupational Therapy and Social Inclusion Processes at the University of São Paulo -USP and the Academic Master's in Studies of Occupation at the Federal University of Minas Gerais -UFMG), it is pointed out that there is still no stricto sensu postgraduate course implemented in the Northeast region (Petten et al, 2019).…”

“…Occupational therapist researchers have dedicated themselves to writing about the history of academic institutionalization of occupational therapy. However, it should be noted that these studies have not aimed to understand the academic trajectories of faculty at public universities in the Northeast (Lopes et al, 2014;Folha et al, 2019;Lancman & Mângia, 2017;Folha et al, 2019;Petten et al, 2019;Monzeli, 2021;Nascimento et al, 2022).…”

De onde somos e onde estamos? Formação acadêmica dos docentes de terapia ocupacional de universidades públicas do nordeste do Brasil

“…Ainda que recentemente tenha acontecido uma grande conquista para a terapia ocupacional, a partir da criação de dois novos mestrados no Sudeste em 2019 (o Mestrado Profissional em terapia ocupacional e Processos de Inclusão Social da Universidade de São Paulo -USP e o Mestrado Acadêmico em Estudos da Ocupação na Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais -UFMG), aponta-se que ainda não há pós-graduação stricto sensu implementada na região Nordeste (Petten et al, 2019).…”

“…Pesquisadoras e pesquisadores terapeutas ocupacionais vêm se dedicando a escrever sobre a história de institucionalização acadêmica da terapia ocupacional. Porém, há de se ressaltar que esses estudos não vêm pautando como objetivo a compreensão das trajetórias acadêmicas do corpo docente de universidades públicas nordestinas (Lopes et al, 2014;Folha et al, 2017;Lancman & Mângia, 2017;Folha et al, 2019;Petten et al, 2019;Monzeli, 2021;Nascimento et al, 2022).…”

IV e V edições do Seminário Nacional de Pesquisa em Terapia Ocupacional: registro das memórias, futuros-presente

“…Despite the political scenario faced in Brazil and the staggering decrease in financial contributions to the field of science and technology and education, precarious and weakening public HEIs, the area of occupational therapy, which has experienced an exponential increase in public places for graduate education in the last 10 years (Pan & Lopes, 2016), is now growing in postgraduate education in its strict senses, which brings direct reflexes in the scope of research. At the end of 2018, we went from a single Graduate Program in Occupational Therapy, at UFSCar, and in the academic modality, to three with the approval of the Academic Master's Course of the Graduate Program in Occupation Studies at the Federal University from Minas Gerais (Van Petten et al, 2019) and from the Professional Master's Course of the Postgraduate Program in Occupational Therapy and Social Inclusion Processes at the University of São Paulo (Almeida & Oliver, 2019). Such advances will certainly contribute to the increase in the number of researchers in the area and the strengthening of scientific production.…”
