In this article we propose to discuss the initial formation of Science and Mathematics teachers, in order to indicate the strengths and weaknesses of an interdisciplinary formation proposal put into action. We present a study, the result of a thesis defended in 2018, carried out with 64 graduates from the Degree in Natural Sciences and Mathematics (LCNM) at the Federal University of Mato Grosso, University Campus of Sinop. The research presents a qualitative and quantitative approach that analyzes the data produced through questionnaires applied to graduated students of the course. The diversity of perceptions presented, in relation to the formative path experienced in the mentioned course demonstrates that there is no consensus among its students. It was identified that the course proposal presents innovative characteristics, as well as potentialities, such as approximation of teachers from different areas and the favoring of knowledge articulation in the curriculum. However, there are elements that need to be problematized, such as the workload, the time of the course, and its wide occupation area, which is pointed out as both potential and fragility of the course. We emphasize that the initial formation of teachers is a challenge and to overcome it is necessary to analyze the systematized knowledge from proposals already implemented, in order to identify potentialities and weaknesses of the formative process.
