RESUMO:

The way in which the occupation of the national territory and the industrialization process took place made Brazil a country marked by regional inequalities. These disparities are manifested, including access to higher education in several ways. Historically, the IES were installed in the richest regions of the country, relegating non-metropolitan and non-coastal areas to the background, making access to higher education in Brazil a privilege of a few. However, between 2003 and 2014, a virtuous cycle of growth that marked the Lula and Dilma governments made it possible to implement a set of policies for the expansion and internalization of higher education. In this way, regions in the interior of the country gained new stimuli to development, in view of the relationships between education and development. In this context, the main objective of the present work is to analyze the contributions of the internalization of public higher education to the development of the Alto Oeste Potiguar from the teaching units of Pau dos Ferros/RN. Therefore, the study was constructed through an appreciation of the literature on the interfaces between universities and development in the light of the ideas of Celso Furtado, Joseph Schumpeter, the neo-schumpeterians and Amartya Sen. In addition, it was made a review on the transformations of access to higher education in Brazil. Subsequently, a collection of secondary data was carried out, necessarily documentary, obtained from MEC, INEP, IBGE, INPI, RAIS, FIRJAN, Lattes Platform and Sucupira and official websites of the IES studied. Thus, the methodological procedures of this research are bibliographic and documentary, of a descriptive nature, with qualitative-quantitative approaches. The research hypothesis is that the region of Alto Oeste Potiguar has been developing with the presence of public universities installed in Pau dos Ferros through positive externalities directly arising from the teaching, research and extension activities of these institutions. The data collected indicated that the IES installed in Pau dos Ferros are engendering, in several facets, a process of development in the region of Alto Oeste Potiguar. In the economic sector, universities have contributed to the qualification of the regional workforce through the insertion of individuals with higher education in the labor market. Added to this is the higher remunerations associated with these workers. In addition, extension and entrepreneurship actions also cause specific improvements in the regional socioeconomic dynamics. In relation to the social and human aspects, it was found that the IES promoted the educational development of the region through indicators of adequacy of teacher training, which presented an important role in the composition of the FIRJAN Index of Municipal Development. The results also highlighted the strong generation of new knowledge and the training of masters and doctors in the region. The survey of innovation indicators showed that the institutions' innovative activity is getting stronger, although it is incipient to be characterized as a vector of regional development.
