ABSTRACT
This is a documental study regarding the national curriculum guidelines for nursing undergraduate courses (DCN/ENF) in Brazil – approved in 2001 by Resolution 03/2001-CNE – and the Political Pedagogical Projects (PPP) of the nursing courses of three universities from Fortaleza, Ceará. The study aimed to analyze the PPPs and the Original Curriculum of the nursing undergraduate courses and their correlation with the DCN/ENF. Results show that the institutions expect to comply with the referred document, and, therefore, structure the content of their PPPs as recommended. However, it is observed there are signs of the Cartesian education model and a more evident focus on biological disciplines over human sciences. Therefore, it is suggested that the consolidation of the national health system (SUS), in terms of the development of human resources in Fortaleza, is still under construction. Hence, it is concluded that the PPP must be constantly evaluated for the necessary adjustments.
