Intends identify the origins of stimuli to research as felt by the faculty of the Institutos Federais de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia, in Brazil, and their opinion about the support offered by research, as well as formats and channels that they use to communicate their production. Universe is composed of 24335 professors working in the 38 Institutos Federais currently existing in the country from which a simple random sample was extracted of 165 individuals, divided proportionally to the number of professors in each Institute. A survey in the curricula vitae of the 165 professors in the sample, registered in the Plataforma Lattes Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq), resulted in the identification of 96 up-dated curricula with registered production. A questionnaire with open and closed questions emailed to these 96 professors supplied the data, then analyzed through quantitative and qualitative techniques. Results showed that professors at the Institutos Federais recognize as the main stimulus to do research the requisites to promotion and academic career.
