Resumo: This article analyzes sex segregation in in-person higher education programs in Brazil by investigating its causes, characteristics and evolution over time. To that end, synthetic indicators of segregation are calculated based on the 2000 and 2017 editions of the Censo da Educação Superior [Higher Education Census]. During this period, the decrease in the overall degree of segregation was subtle, as a result of two opposite movements: the reduction in the stratification of men and women between the major areas of knowledge, which is offset by increased segregation within them. Thus, at the most aggregate level of analysis, there is a tendency towards sex integration in the fields of study. However, when it comes to specific careers, gender stereotypes persist, with separation between typically “male” and “female” programs.

Para eso son calculados índices sintéticos de segregación con datos de las ediciones de 2000 y 2017 del Censo de la Educación Superior. En este período la caída en el nivel general de segregación fue tímida y resultante de dos movimientos opuestos: la reducción de la estratificación de hombres y mujeres entre las grandes áreas del conocimiento, contrabalanceada por el aumento en la segregación dentro de esas ramas. Así, al nivel más agregado de análisis, hay una tendencia a la integración por sexo entre los campos de estudio. Sin embargo, cuando se trata de carreras específicas, persisten los estereotipos de género, con una segmentación entre las carreras típicamente masculinas y femeninas.Cet article analyse la ségrégation des sexes dans l’enseignement supérieur brésilien, tout en examinant ses causes, caractéristiques et son évolution dans le temps. À cette fin, des indicateurs synthétiques de ségrégation sont calculés en utilisant les éditions de 2000 et 2017 du Censo da Educação Superior [Recensement de l’Éducation Supérieure]. Dans cette période, la chute dans le degré général de ségrégation a été timide et a résulté de deux mouvements opposés: la réduction de la stratification des hommes et femmes entre les grands domaines du savoir, contrecarrée par l’incrément de la ségrégation dans ces domaines. Donc au niveau plus agrégé d’analyse, il y a une tendance à l’intégration par sexe des champs d’étude au niveau des carrières, les stéréotypes de genre perdurent, avec une segmentation entre les métiers typiquement masculins et féminins.Este artigo analisa a segregação por sexo nos cursos presenciais de ensino superior brasileiro, investigando suas causas, características e evolução no tempo. Para tanto, são calculados indicadores sintéticos de segregação com base nas edições de 2000 e 2017 do Censo da Educação Superior. Nesse período, a queda no grau geral de segregação foi tímida e resultou de dois movimentos opostos: a redução da estratificação de homens e mulheres entre as grandes áreas de conhecimento, contrabalançada pelo aumento da segregação dentro delas. Assim, ao nível mais agregado de análise, há tendência à integração por sexo dos campos de estudo. Porém, em se tratando de carreiras específicas, persistem os estereótipos de gênero, com segmentação entre cursos tipicamente masculinos e femininos.Fundação Carlos Chagas2021-10-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://publicacoes.fcc.org.br/cp/article/view/8400Cadernos de Pesquisa; Vol. 51 (2021); e08400Cadernos de Pesquisa; Vol. 51 (2021); e08400Cadernos de Pesquisa; Vol. 51 (2021); e08400Cadernos de Pesquisa; v. 51 (2021); e084001980-53140100-1574reponame:Cadernos de Pesquisa (Fundação Carlos Chagas.
