Abstract—This research aims to analyze the student’s perception of the teaching-learning process through the Self-Evaluation Committee (SEC) of a Higher Education Institution (IES) and to identify the facilitating aspects and difficulties presented, allowing the institution to promote changes based on this feedback. We conducted the study with 399 anonymous students, using a questionnaire with objective questions created by the SEC. Thus, we found that the students consider as positive the Teaching Methodology (MET) and the Faculty Qualification and Update (QAD). On the other hand, some weaknesses were highlighted like the ratio between Available Books in the Library and the Courses Curriculum Content (RLD-CP). The present study brought, through the perception of the students, a situational diagnosis of the institution’s reality that is well evaluated with the concepts Good and Excellent for most of the dimensions analyzed, demonstrating the degree of satisfaction of the research’s target audience.
