Resumen:
This research work aimed at detecting the specific administration model and the ethical vision
of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of the state of Ceará Campus
Iguatu, adopted for the period from 2009 to 2013, from the perspective of the schools of
strategic thought. To this end, after the bibliographical study and the construction of the
theoretical chapters, a description of the Institutional Development Plan (PDI, in Portuguese)
of the said institution follows, as well as a documental analysis of that PDI for the mentioned
period, on the basis of the main characteristics of the schools of strategic thought that were
present in the PDI, in order to identify the underlying administration model. As a next step,
from the perspective of corporate ethics, with emphasis in corporate social responsibility, it
was sought to verify the ethical vision of the administration of the IFCE Campus Iguatu for
the period already mentioned. Furthermore, a confrontation between the historical panorama
of the administration in the public school and the characteristics of the strategic school with
which the administration of the institution had similarities was undertaken in order to better
understand the dynamics of that administration. Finally, it was possible to end that the
administration of the IFCE Campus Iguatu is characterized as an administration of strategic
planning (second of the schools of strategic thought approached in this work) and that the
ethical vision of that administration follows the precepts of the ethics of corporate social
responsibility.
