The object of this dissertation is to analyze the academic trajectory of young people of popular origin, natives of districts in the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro, who have been admitted to postgraduate courses "stricto sensu" at leading public universities. Such trajectories will be here analyzed by means of the narratives of those very social actors, with the intention of pointing out the branding of their socialization and schooling under a social context which, from the point of view of some studies in the field of the Sociology of Education, would not benefit the grasping of the cultural and social assets required for admission to the academic career. From this perspective, besides not being very usual in the popular midst, those trajectories also would not be recognized by the group of origin that, by and large, identifies the school education as the entrance to the professional world, as well as considering the university course the pinnacle of a well succeeded academic education. Starting from the analysis of the set of such trajectories, it is here sought to assimilate the elements and social experiences that made possible the lengthening of the school formation and, most of all, the impact and the significance of the admission to the academic career, both from the point of view of the social mobility and from the conflicts that arise from that subjective experience, be them in relation to the family or to the social group expectations. The fieldwork of ethnographic character was based on participative observation and on the implementation of detailed interviews, which constituted the basic methodological tools for the development of this research. As for the theoretical discussion here proposed, the works of Pierre Bourdieu, Jean-Claude Passeron, Bernard Lahire, Jailson de Souza e Silva, and Maria da Graça Jacintho Setton, among others, were considered as reference.
