Resumen:
The present work aims to analyzing the relationship between the work and studies strategies developed by university students of the CDSA/UFCG, specifically in the Social Sciences and Public Management courses. As specific objectives, it is also sought to identify the difficulties of reconciling these two universes, as well as to analyze the possible negative impacts about working conditions and subordination that the students are submitted, to reach the future aspirations, when reconciling work and curricular activities. For this purpose, tests and interviews were applied in order to identify and outline the social profiles of these students, with emphasis on the strategies used and their consequences. The results showed that these subjects, even through social/temporal organizations and family support, present difficulties in reconciling the universe of work with the universe of studies, since the development of both activities result in negative consequences in physical aspects and academic achievements. Despite this, they insists on reconciling both activities, due to the need for work as an essential financial aid for their livelihood and studies aimed at better working conditions through training process in higher education.
