Abstract(s)
Nos dias de hoje o acesso ao ensino superior constitui‐se como o seguimento natural dos
estudos de um jovem português. No entanto, a escolha do curso e da instituição de ensino é
uma decisão difícil e complexa, levando o aluno a passar por um conjunto de etapas e escolhas.
O ingresso no Ensino superior é uma decisão importante que pode ser influenciada por diversos
fatores. Estes fatores podem ser individuais ou sociais, e são inerentes ao jovem estudante e ao
ambiente em que se formou. A decisão pode ser optar pelo ensino tradicional, ingresso nos
estabelecimentos de ensino superior público civil ou ensino superior privado ou ainda pode
optar por escolher o ensino superior militar. As Forças Armadas, com instituições de ensino
superior próprias, devem assim compreender estes processos para poderem prever e gerir as
suas necessidades de pessoal.
Nesta dissertação, abordaremos esta questão não só no âmbito do comportamento
organizacional e da gestão de pessoal, mas também da complexidade humana e fatores sociais.
Desta forma, para além da compreensão deste processo de tomada de decisão, procurou‐se
também entender as motivações de quem entra nestas instituições e os fatores de atratividade
das mesmas.
Constituiu‐se assim um estudo misto, dividido numa 1ª parte qualitativa e uma 2ª
quantitativa. A 1ª parte, com incidência nos fatores de atratividade e motivações, recorreu a
um questionário de 29 questões, 24 de escolha múltipla e 5 de resposta aberta. A amostra de
415 respostas, representou quase a totalidade dos candidatos às três unidades orgânicas do
Instituto Universitário Militar (Escola Naval, Academia Militar e Academia da Força Aérea). A 2ª
parte do estudo, eminentemente quantitativa, foi efetuada através de um questionário de 17
itens para avaliar as motivações e a concretização dos inquiridos. Este questionário foi aplicado
apenas aos alunos com colocação na Escola Naval, contou com uma amostra de 49 respostas.
Esta dissertação permitiu concluir que as principais motivações/fatores de atratividade
passam por uma elevada ambição e desejo de sucesso pessoal e nas instituições, aliada a
elevadas expetativas nas competências que esperam adquirir.
Nowadays, access to higher education is the natural follow‐up to the studies of the young Portuguese man and women. However, the choice of the degree and educational institution is a difficult and complex decision, leading the student to go through a set of stages and choices. Entering higher education is an important decision that can be influenced by several factors. This includes individual and social factors, inherent to the environment in which he graduated. The decision may be to opt for traditional education, admission to civil public higher education or private higher education, or one can choose military higher education. The Armed Forces, as institutions with their own higher education institutions, must therefore understand these processes to be able to anticipate and manage their human resources needs. This dissertation, it will address this issue not only in terms of organizational behavior and personnel management, but also in terms of human complexity and social factors. In this way, in addition to understanding this decision‐making process, it also sought to understand the motivations of those who enter these institutions and their attractiveness factors. Also focusing on what is the post‐entry experience and context at the Escola Naval, the Portuguese Naval Academy of focus of this study.
