Thus, this study examined the professional interests assessed by the Escala de Aconselhamento Profissional (EAP) in 455 students from different undergraduate courses of private higher education institutions of the state of São Paulo. Results showed that the major interests of Mechatronics and Engineering students were exact sciences, agricultural and environmental sciences. Economics students had higher results in communication and arts, and bureaucratic activities. Architecture excelled by higher averages in the dimensions of communication and arts. In general, there was consistency between the courses and the preferred dimensions. Keywords Psychological assessment, professional interests, psychological tests.
