Abstract

This article is part of an on-
going research that aims to
analyze
procedural
and
methodological approaches
in the production of mono-
graphs at the end of under-
graduate programs in Jour-
nalism and Communication
Sciences in Brazilian and Por-
tuguese universities. The dif-
ferences between the curric-
ular structures of four institu-
tions from both countries will
be presented, pointing out to
the inclusion in the curricular
plan of courses related with
the preparation for research
in undergraduate programs.
Results, however, indicate a
gap in the training of young
researchers in the field of So-
cial Communication within
the scope of undergraduate
programs.
