To bridge the gap between the teaching and learning process and the world of work, university-industry collaboration, through the dual study model, is proving to be a unique and innovative strategy. It is a model that strengthens the role of students, who apply knowledge in a concrete way, develops technical, analytical, organizational and socioemotional, encouraging entrepreneurship and improving hard and soft skills. The objective is to present, in a synthetic way, the application of the constituent elements that represent the knowledge of the dual graduation model and its implementation in academic and industrial environments. This study addresses the implementation of a technological degree (higher technology course) in the higher education system of a Professional and Technological Education institution in collaboration with industries in the metallurgy sector in southern Santa Catarina, Brazil. The article details the application of the capabilities “define” and “implement”, present in the conceptual framework of knowledge representation about the dual degree model. Planning took place during the period from November 2021 to August 2022. The first class began in the second semester of 2022, with completion scheduled for 2025.
