Sumario:This paper presents the origin and development of the course in the Education Postgraduate Program of the School of Education of the Federal University of Minas Gerais on the contribution of Paulo Freire's thought. It tries to contextualize how the course emerged, its participants' data, the relationship between their research interests and Paulo Freire, as well as the themes and contents studied. Seeking coherence with Freirean principles, the course sought to introduce a differentiated teaching and learning methodology, encouraging the exploration of pedagogical resources and proposing different evaluation strategies. Some participants who have taken the course over the years were interviewed about three aspects: interest in participating, contribution to the research, and Freire's contribution in their dissertations or theses. The postgraduates’ testimonies show the incorporation of Freire's concepts in their studies and in the educational practices.
