In 1965, the Brazilian Federal Council of Education institutionalized Postgraduate studies through the 977/65 Legal Bulletin. Minas Gerais was one of the first states to create postgraduate programs, especially in education, which genesis this study focuses with the aim of pointing out ways to write the recent history of Higher Education and highlight the 25th anniversary of postgraduate studies in education at the Federal University of Uberlândia. As a documental research, this study relies upon legal documents and statistical data analysed with a historical and contextual approach. The results show that, once created, postgraduate studies was expanded in connection with Higher Education, received stimulus both from tax and institutional enhancement in Minas Gerais and faced effects of neoliberal policies such as decrease in the number of scholarships and duration of courses. This study allows to conclude that one way to write this history are the teachers’ reports who started the postgraduate practices and turned them into an essential system for the advancement of science.
