Abstract

Objective: To conduct a study on the evaluation of alumni on their education in UNIFESP’s Nutrition Course, in order to subsidize the reform of the curricula. Methods: Quantitave and qualitative cross-sectional study, developed using a survey with closed and open questions, with respondent alumni from the first three Nutrition classes. The validated research survey contained a Likert-type attitudinal instrument and two open questions, which were submitted to a thematic content analysis, theoretically grounded on the work of Merleau-Ponty. Results: Forty-eight replies were received. Respondents showed a positive perception of their education and the development of skills for professional performance; the shortcomings noted by respondents provided subsidies for the reform of the curricula on several aspects. Labor market undervalued interprofessional formation. Final considerations: There was a positive perception about their education, with emphasis on interdisciplinarity as the main aspect. Despite the challenges met with the curricular reform, this is understood to be a complex and continuous process.
