description Autonomy in higher education has had several interpretations. However, the “uni- versity autonomy” and “academic freedom” have always been present. Here, authors discuss these concepts and contextualize them in current Portuguese reality, departing from a PhD rese- arch in Education: “The Portuguese higher education finance: diversifying income streams”. The public underfinancing of public higher education institutions, from the 1990s onwards, has led its leaders to look for alternative revenues in the private sector, but such financing can threat higher education autonomy and academic freedom. This research intended, among other goals, to clarify how higher education leaders interpret their autonomy, considering the financial dependency of their institutions towards private sponsors. It’s a qualitative research, based on 37 semi directive interviews to institutional leaders from the Lisbon Metropolitan Area and sponsors. The authors conclude that the interviewees consider that their autonomy is reduced, namely the financial and administrative autonomy due to financial difficulties.

Autonomy in higher education has had several interpretations. However, the “uni- versity autonomy” and “academic freedom” have always been present. Here, authors discuss these concepts and contextualize them in current Portuguese reality, departing from a PhD rese- arch in Education: “The Portuguese higher education finance: diversifying income streams”. The public underfinancing of public higher education institutions, from the 1990s onwards, has led its leaders to look for alternative revenues in the private sector, but such financing can threat higher education autonomy and academic freedom. This research intended, among other goals, to clarify how higher education leaders interpret their autonomy, considering the financial dependency of their institutions towards private sponsors. It’s a qualitative research, based on 37 semi directive interviews to institutional leaders from the Lisbon Metropolitan Area and sponsors. The authors conclude that the interviewees consider that their autonomy is reduced, namely the financial and administrative autonomy due to financial difficulties. La autonomía universitaria ha sido interpretada de manera diferente con el tiempo mientras la "autonomía universitaria" y la "libertad académica" han sido siempre presentes. En este artículo, se analizan estes conceptos en el contexto actual de Portugal, basado en el investigación de doctorado en Educación "Financiación de la educación superior pública portuguesa: Diversificación de las fuentes". La disminución de la financia- ción pública de las instituciones públicas de educación superior (IES) empeorado desde 1990, llevó sus dirigentes a buscar otros ingresos que, por su naturaleza privada pueden amenazar aquellas autonomía y libertad. La investigación muestra como los líderes del IES interpretan su autonomía considerando su dependencia financiera hacia el exterior. Es una investigación cualitativa, del paradigma fenomenológico interpretativo. Fueran entrevistados 38 líderes de los IES de la zona de Lisboa y se demostró que los encuesta- dos ven disminuidos su autonomía financiera y administrativa debido a las dificultades financieras que experimentan. A autonomia no ensino superior tem tido várias interpretações. Todavia, as ideias “autonomia universitária” e “liberdade académica” sempre estiveram presentes. Neste artigo, discutem-se aqueles conceitos e contextualizam-se na atual realidade portuguesa, partindo da investigação de doutoramento em Educação intitulada “Financiamento do ensino superior público português: diversificação de fontes”. O subfinanciamento público das instituições públicas de ensino superior (IES), agravado desde 1990, levou os seus dirigentes a procurar fontes alternativas de receita que, pela sua natureza privada poderão ameaçar a autonomia. A investigação pretendeu, entre outros objetivos, clarificar como os dirigentes das IES interpretam a sua autonomia considerando a dependência financeira da instituição face ao exterior. É uma investigação qualitativa, integrando-se no paradigma interpretativo-fenomenológico, assentando nas 37 entrevistas semidiretivas a dirigentes das IES da Zona Metropolitana de Lisboa e aos financiadores. Os autores concluem que os entrevistados veem diminuída a sua autonomia, nomeadamente financeira e administrativa dadas as dificuldades financeiras.
