A pesquisa teve como objetivo compreender como acadêmicxs do curso de Bacharelado em Secretariado Executivo da Universidade Estadual do Centro-Oeste do Paraná (UNICENTRO) criam inteligibilidade sobre noções de gêneros e sexualidades em relação a sua atuação profissional. A abordagem aplicada para análise é quanti-qualitativa de cunho bibliográfico e exploratório. Os resultados foram analisados a partir de 5 eixos teórico-analíticos com base nas respostas de 28 questionários. O primeiro eixo tratou das atividades técnicas e tático-operacionais de assessoramento e sua relação com a produção de práticas de reiteração de estereótipos. Os dados apontaram para os obstáculos epistemológicos do empirismo e da natureza aplicada do campo científico do Secretariado como problema crucial para a produção de discursos que estigmatizam a área. O segundo eixo problematizou alguns estereótipos em relação às técnicas secretariais e como as atividades tecnicistas possibilitam que discursos de insultos e preconceitos à área sejam recorrentes nas percepções dxs participantes da pesquisa, como mostra o terceiro eixo de análise. No quarto eixo problematizei como preconceitos e insultos produzem subjetividades generificadas e isso ajudou a problematizar a hipersexualização dos corpos que atuam na área secretarial. No quinto eixo articulo os Estudos Queer ao Secretariado, entendendo-os enquanto campos de saber-poder profícuos para os estudos de gênero e sexualidades não-normativas. Além disso, o processo de construção de uma inteligibilidade transgenerificada interseccionalmente pode contribuir para produções não excludentes e reflexões mais condizentes com as demandas científicas, epistêmicas e políticas, ainda carentes no campo do secretariado. Palavras-chave: Secretariado; Estudos Queer; Gêneros e Sexualidades.  ABSTRACT The research aimed to understand how students from the Bachelor's Degree in Ex-ecutive Secretariat, of Midwestern Parana State University (UNICENTRO) create intelligibility about notions of genders and sexualities in relation to their professional performance. The applied approach to conduct the analysis is quantitative and qual-itative with a bibliographic and exploratory nature. The results were analyzed from 5 theoretical-analytical axes based on the responses of 28 questionnaires. The first axis dealt with technical and tactical-operational advisory activities and their rela-tionship with the production of stereotypic reiteration practices. The data pointed to the epistemological obstacles of empiricism and the applied nature of the Secretarial scientific field as a crucial problem for the production of the stigmatization of the field. The second axis problematized some stereotypes in relation to secretarial techniques and how technical activities help produce speeches of insults and prej-udices to the area which are recurrent in the perceptions of the participants of the research, as shown in the third axis of analysis. In the fourth axis, I problematized how prejudices and insults produce gendered subjectivities and this helped prob-lematize the hypersexualization of bodies that work in the secretarial area. In the fifth axis, I articulate Queer Studies to Secretarial, understanding them as fruitful fields of knowledge-power for gender studies and non-normative sexualities. In ad-dition, the process of building a transgenerated intelligibility interseccionally can contribute to non-exclusive productions and reflections more consistent with the scientific, epistemic and political demands, still lacking in our area. Keywords: Secretarial; Queer Studies; Genders and Sexualities.

Once strictly the domain of medical and graduate education, neuroscience has made its way into the undergraduate curriculum with over 230 colleges and universities now offering a bachelor’s degree in neuroscience. The disciplinary focus on the brain teaches students to apply science to the understanding of human behavior, human interactions, sensation, emotions, and decision making. In this article, we encourage new and existing undergraduate neuroscience programs to envision neuroscience as a broad discipline with the potential to develop competencies suitable for a variety of careers that reach well beyond research and medicine. This article describes our philosophy and illustrates a broad-based undergraduate degree in neuroscience implemented at a major state university, Virginia Tech. We highlight the fact that the research-centered Experimental Neuroscience major is least popular of our four distinct majors, which underscores our philosophy that undergraduate neuroscience can cater to a different audience than traditionally thought.

The article provides an overview of ten diploma theses written under the supervision of Professor of Zoology Juhan Aul at the University of Tartu from 1958–1970. The theses deal with physical development of Estonian school students in two Estonian towns (Tartu and Pärnu) and nine districts (Tartu, Elva, Põlva, Räpina, Rapla, Keila, Pärnu, Võru, Harju) according to the then existing administrative division. The theses are based on the anthropological material collected from 1956–1966.The first part of the article briefly describes the period of nearly 202 years during which the scholars related to the University of Tartu have conducted various physical anthropological studies on Estonians. These years can conditionally be divided as follows: the first period, 1814–1927 – the period from Baer to Aul, the second period, 1927–1993 – the Aul period, the third period, from 1993 to the present – the period of the Centre for Physical Anthropology.The article describes some of the options the students had for participating in anthropological research. An overview is given of the beginning of anthropological research of children and school students in Estonia and in the world. The article acquaints the reader with the whole of the so-called Aul period and the diploma theses on Estonian school students’ physical development supervised by him.The second part gives an overview of the diploma theses.

In December 2018, the General Assembly of PTP Delegates has accepted the new Code of Ethics of the Psychologists of the Polish Psychological Society and accepted the concept of a three-level system of ethical regulation. The proposal was supported by environmental and expert consultations. The first level is the newly adopted Code, presenting general ethical principles and the rights of clients, as well as the rights of psychologists. Regulations from this level relate to all professionals regardless of the specific areas of the professional performance, due to the fact they are all based on key values for each psychologist. Currently, work is underway to create ethical regulations from the second level, and hence individual psychological activities. The third level will include the detailed standards of psychologists’ work.
