Research capacity: results of graduates course in education

This research aims to analyze how the students from two master's science Education Courses from two public Universities (courses A e B) evaluated their research capacity on under graduation and master's science courses. The questioners were applied to 28 students on the second years from both of courses. The data were submitted to the content analysis. The results showed that the profile of students from the course B was similar to the one expected by support research agencies as well their work condition on master's science course. Most of them also had scientific experience during under graduation course. Students in both Education Courses evaluated positively their scientific capacity (good, very good and excellent). On the phases of development of the scientific research some students from the course A had answered "not worked" in several phases. Those results could be utilized to improve de the research capacity process.
