This paper presents analytical research results regarding the Brazilian higher education evaluation. The conclusions are supported by a study about the making of this evaluation system and its various mechanisms that have been implemented since the second half of the 90's. The study concludes that evaluation has been assuming a predominant role in the increase of State control over the Institutions of Higher Education as well as in the implementation of market principles and parameters concerning the restructuring of this educational level.
