MODELOS DE UNIVERSIDADE E TEORIAS DE CURRÍCULO: efeitos nos modos como se aproximam.

The university models that are conceived today produce effects directly on the conformation of higher education curricula, which generates tension in the ways in which they are related: they are integrated, excluded, approached, distanced, according to the different historical configurations in which they are inserted. From this tension result: i) what is meant by university, which responds to the conception of modern university, translated by the inseparability between research, teaching and extension, and ii) what is meant by higher education, which prepares to serve the market and which, can be affiliated with a marketing concept. In this sense, this article, resulting from bibliographical research, aims to observe how a certain conception of university is related to a conception of curriculum and the effects that can be produced. Therefore, the proximity in the ways in which they are constituted showed different effects for the construction of a modern conception of university and for the emergence of a university that provides services (CHAUÍ, 2001). The service provider university deconstructs the university as a social institution with teaching, research and extension inseparable. In the approximation between university models and curriculum theories, a model of public university was evidenced that is largely restricted to its traditional function of training polyvalent professionals for the labor market. This function of the public university is in correlation with the concept of a service provider university. On the other hand, a possible model of the university as a social institution was evidenced, which would be related to the post-critical theories of curriculum, an emancipating university.
