Abstract

In the last few years, there has been a strong increase in the supply of Higher Education throughout the country, more specifically in cities in the interior. This expansion is mainly linked to the insertion of public policies that aim to decentralize the offer of undergraduate courses from the large metropolitan regions to the interior of the States of the Federation. In order to understand the dynamics undertaken in the territory of Alagoas, two immediate geographical regions were defined for the development of this study. Methodologically, the study was structured in a triad: In Literature, the use of geoprocessing techniques with the aid of the IBGE database and the use of Google Earth Street View to identify the location of the Institutions. The study presented the importance of the recent expansion that, despite its contradictions, is established in the territory promoting access and professional formation in regions previously excluded.
