The seminar is a teaching strategy broadly employed in the academic field with the aim of encouraging the students to do research, comprehend and expose ideas. This study has as goal to comprehend university students’ perception regarding the seminar’s usage as a teaching strategy. This is a study of descriptive and exploratory character with a qualitative approach, which was conducted through the questionnaires’ application with students of the Physiotherapy course in a private higher education institution in the city of Vitória da Conquista-Bahia. The sampling was carried through data saturation and data analysis in compliance with Bardin content analysis. It was found that even though there are failures in this teaching strategy, the students take it into account as an significant tool for the learning establishment.
