The systematization of knowledge learnt in class varies between people and different methodological strategies can be used in this process. Mind maps emerge as one of these strategies, which help to process, structure and relate acquired information, representing a tool for such systematization. Therefore, there is a need for understanding how its use can help on the teaching/learning process in Administration courses. This study aimed to analyze the perceptions of information systems undergraduate students enrolled in General Administration Theory course, after systematizing the content taught in class using a mind map as a didactic tool. This research is characterized as a case study, descriptive and qualitative. It was found that the students consider it important to have a teacher guidance for the development of the methodology, and see as positive the fact that they work in groups in the classroom, what shows the importance of providing an appropriate space. They also highlighted that the map purpose was achieved since they could systematize the development of the administrative thought and stimulate creativity. As a negative point, they indicate the lack of cohesion in dividing tasks among the group but they stated that they would use the strategy in other opportunities.
