This article discusses some results of an exploratory study carried out with women official naval engineers of the Brazilian Navy. The results permitted an initial understanding of the female position in the Official Naval Engineers Corp. So, it was possible to afford a glimpse to a complex reality, in which gender relations and work relations present their own features, keeping, at the same time, standards of insertion and integration similar to those the non-military women engineers passed. The article begins indicating some aspects of the process of integration of women in the Brazilian Navy. Next, it is analyzed, from the point of view of the subjects, how they perceive their post, their image as women belonging to the body of official naval engineers, the work that they do as well as the gender relations in the military environment. The text finishes raising questions for future investigations.Downloads
