This article aims to highlight how Unconventional Food Plants – UFPs have constituted themselves as an interdisciplinary educational-investigative element in the courses offered at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology, Serrinha campus, enabling the rescue, re-signification and construction of knowledge and knowledge based on the tripod of teaching-research-extension. To do so, a survey was carried out in the institutional documents, results of public notices, records of the teaching, research and extension coordinations of the IF Baiano Campus Serrinha, records of the Núcleo de Estudos em Agroecologia do IF Baiano Campus Serrinha – NEA Abelmanto, besides a survey of the productions of the teachers and students registered in the lattes curriculum. In five years, nine teaching, research and extension projects have been developed, addressing NCP as a central and/or auxiliary theme. In two projects, the planned actions were already articulating the teaching-research-extension tripod, three projects framed as extension projects, two as research projects, one as teaching projects and one as research and extension projects. Twenty nine publications and technical productions were surveyed, with the involvement of students, professors from the Serrinha campus and from the external community, resulting from the actions and projects with UFPs. The unconventional food plants have been a formative element and integrator/articulator of the teaching-research-extension tripod at the Federal Institute of Bahia Campus Serrinha and have contributed to the realization of a holistic, integrated, dynamic and contributory PTE with the local development processes.
