Abstract

This article aims to present the conception of development of UTFPR Campus Pato Branco from the research developed in the Postgraduate Program in Regional Development in the same University. For this, it was used the qualitative approach to research based in three sources: institutional documents, speaks of the leaders of the campus and its participation in an instance of development in the region, the <em>Manager Planning Group of the southwest of Paran&aacute;</em> (GGETESPA).&nbsp; The results obtained in this research showed a lack of clarity of the Campus related to development, as well as the lack of a consistent policy on institutional development. Although the speeches of respondents have prevailed entries that show an economistic view of development, the Campus presents relevant initiatives such as the performance of research groups and postgraduate studies, which have contributed to discussions and actions around the development of the southwestern of Paran&aacute;. It can be concluded that, UTFPR Campus Pato Branco, inserted into the contradictions of capitalist society, is the reflect of these contradictions. So, speaking in development within a university is to consider how the this one has been influenced and charged by the new needs of capital and how it can contribute to face this reality, showing then, possibilities and limits of the construction of an emancipatory project of education and development.
