PROLEGOMENOUS OF THE HISTORY OF THE MASTER’S COURSE IN PSYCHOLOGY OF THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF PETRÓPOLIS

Abstract

This work is dedicated to Professor Helmuth Krüger with whom I have had the pleasure of living since my graduation, and to be guided by him in all phases of my training in Psychology: undergraduate, master, doctorate, and postdoctoral internship. To speak of Professor Helmuth is to speak of a good faith thinker, in search of truth, a person of great moral and ethical actions. I thank God for accompanying him academically to the end of his worthy journey. I thank Father Rector Pedro Paulo for the authorization and encouragement for this postdoctoral internship. This paper is about the master’s degree in Psychology at the Catholic University of Petrópolis, elaborated and developed by Professor Helmuth Krüger. This work was started in 2019, with the advisor professor Helmuth Krüger and aimed in addition to obtaining the post-doctorate in Psychology to make a history of the master’s degree of the Psychology Course. In this article our initial objective is to launch the first lines of the research done for the desired purpose, leaving for the subsequent completion of the research the edition of a book with all history. Methodologically, it is a survey of historical data with analysis of documents and testimonials with some professors and students who passed through the institution.
