This investigation aimed to understand the devaluation of the Public University about the neoliberal conception. We now understand the need for an analysis of the predominant influences on materialized decisions for Higher Education. Thus, in this qualitative, bibliographic and documentary research, we started to problematize the core of the proposals that favor the precariousness of the Public University. During this research activity, we realized that there are intentions to favor private systems and that, to a large extent, these systems are trimmed in public policies. In this way, the reduction of investments for public institutions of Higher Education, taking into account the needs of privatist projects and weakening Public Universities. Finally, it was possible to understand that the discourse generated by the neoliberal conception, is always on the line of attack against the public institution and its defenders, considering that the Public University is an institution representative of the fight against the dominant forces.
