Abstract

This is an exploratory-descriptive research aiming to analyze Master and PHD Theses presented in Brazil. The research was held at data bases and websites of Higher Education institutions. A sample of 45 theses presented from 2000 to 2009, whose titles, abstracts and keywords were recorded in Access form was analyzed on general, thematic and geographical basis. Most are Master Theses authored by Bachelors in Tourism teaching in Higher Education institutions. As for subjects, the result is that most researches are about undergraduate tourism programs , with emphasis in vocational training. The few researches found about Pos Graduate programs present in-depth analysis based on theoretical and methodological framework borrowed from Education and Information Science. Lack of standardization and fragility of keywords indicates the urgency of use of controlled glossaries in Tourism.
