Mobilidade estudantil para os graduandos de Secretariado Executivo da Universidade Federal de Sergipe

Abstract

This work aimed to analyze the perception of UFS Executive Secretariat students about exchange during their undergraduate studies as a differentiator for their professional career. Exchanges during university graduation contribute to broadening the graduate's horizons abroad, through contact with different cultures. The exchange is an opening of doors for all students who want to make a difference. The research is classified as exploratory and descriptive, considering the research strategy, the case study was used. For data analysis, a quantitative and qualitative approach was applied. Data collection took place in the form of a questionnaire, applied to students on the UFS Executive Secretariat course, specifically those enrolled between the first and eighth period, chosen based on accessibility to research participants. The results made it possible to identify factors linked to the interest in carrying out an exchange and level of knowledge about exchange, as well as the students' perception of the importance of mastering another language for their career, whether working in Brazil or abroad. Therefore, it was observed that the majority of participants are aware of the exchange, but do not know in depth how it works and what the process is to carry out one.
