This study had the objective to analyze the institutionalization of the undergraduate degree in the legislation that regulated the education and the profession of the psychologist in Brazil in 1962. This research, of historiographic nature, had as a methodological procedure the documentary analysis of unpublished primary sources located on the website of the Federal Chamber of Deputies, the dossier of the PL3825/58. Other sources were the journals Boletim de Psicologia, Arquivos Brasileiros de Psicotécnica and Revista Psicologia Normal e Patológica. From the analysis of the data, we identified that, in the first projects that dealt with the education and regulation of the profession of psychologists in 1953, there was no proposal for the degree for the education of psychology teachers for high school. The degree as an education modality for psychologists, with a curricular proposal consistent with the legislation already existent for the education of teachers, appeared only in 1961, and was maintained in the project that became the law #4119, approved in 1962.
