Abstract
Based on the model of cycles, the Interdisciplinary Bachelors (BI) of the XXX are configured by interdisciplinary and non-professional training. Because it is the first cycle, upon completion, students may have access to a vocational course, a graduate course, or the job market. This article aims to identify the predominant factors in the student’s choice by the BI Health. Using the qualitative research, 14 students participated in this study. Semi-structured interviews and focus groups were used. The results, analyzed from the discourse analysis, show that the students seek BI for health by aiming for a CPL, especially Medicine, from the expectation of economic and social ascension. However, the reports also indicated that the interdisciplinary nature of the course contributed to a more elaborate and reflected choice of students.
