Despite the recognized importance of the teacher´s role in the construction and development of modern society, the exercise of teaching is undergoing a period of great social devaluation, reflected even in the remuneration commonly intended for teaching. However, contradicting this scenery, many high school graduate students are tending to join one of the various teachers training undergraduate courses. But then, nowadays, who wants to be a teacher? What reasons have led students to enroll in courses for teacher training? This dissertation investigates who is the student of the undergraduate courses of the Faculdade de Formação de Professores (FFP) at Rio de Janeiro State University (UERJ): their profile, their views on the course and on their university education, their perception about the teaching profession. The subjects of the research correspond to those students enrolled in specific disciplines and periods, and the intention is to cover students beginning their course, half course students and graduating students. We take as a basis for our research contributions from authors like Paulo Freire, António Nóvoa, Maurice Tardif, Bernardete Gatti and Elba de Sá Barretto. The methodological approach adopted in this exploratory research is of qualitative-quantitative character and, therefore, we used questionnaires as instruments for recording information. A total of 450 undergraduate students participated in the research. Throughout the work, we come to know and analyze the reasons why those students were led to choose to undergraduate in teacher training, their expectations regarding their university education, the vision they have about teaching and finally if, in fact, they want to work as teachers. From what was known of the analyzes and reflections, we intend to contribute to the FFP/UERJ with new subsidies to assist in the necessary task of continuously updating their Political- Academic-Educational project, allowing the opportunity to develop and achieve their goals - what seems to be relevant to encouraging reflection and purposeful actions on the field of teacher training at the institution and, if possible, beyond.
