University teachers' training in the Post-graduate Degree Programs in Chemistry

The didactic training in higher education of Brazilian teachers' has received more attention in recent years. Therefore, we investigate students' perceptions from the Post-graduate Degree Program in Chemistry at the Federal University of Minas Gerais. Thus, we recognize that these students don't feel prepared and express their need for a didactic training, as they are without any pedagogical preparation. The initiatives offered in the program in question, in the last decade, recognize the students' needs, but they have to be extended into a reflective process.
