Abstract
School dropout is a phenomenon that directly affects educational institutions and causes various academic, social and economic damages. Studying the subject, we noticed that several students entering the period from 2009 to 2014, have escaped from the Licentiate degree in Physics of the IFPA campus Bragança. Analyzing this context, identify and analyze the percentage of students evaded in said course. The data analyzed were obtained through the Synopsis of Higher Education and the Academic Secretary of IFPA. The results show that dropout in the analyzed course overlaps the national averages and exposes the need to intensify public policies to guarantee the access, permanence and success of incoming students.
