The university extension plays a key role in the full training of students in the face of capacity it has to feedback the teaching and research. Through it the University can take the knowledge that is being produced in their research to society. Such actions when applied by a university that is part of the semiarid region, bringing with it the possibility of transforming the reality of this place and contribute to its development, not only in the training of researchers, teachers and technicians to work in the region, as well as directly influencing the socio-cultural aspects of the territory in which it operates. The Instituto de Estudos do Semiárido (IESA), an academic unit of the Universidade Federal do Cariri (UFCA) located in the Campus Icó, develops activities that seek to research and better understand semiarid dynamics and focus on social action in the pursuit of sustainable development . The aim of this study is to understand the perceptions and representations generated by the implementation of a university campus in a city of the northeastern semiarid region through the extension projects developed with in the University. Therefore interviews were conducted with the extension students using discourse analysis techniques to grasp the sense that the extension takes in the statements of the respondents. Finally, using concepts such as Schein Organizational Culture and the Paradigm of Complexity present in the works of Morin, present the points where the university extension and its internal and external impacts to the institution contribute to the construction of a Country University in Icó .Thus this research will bring contributions to the discussion on the Public Policy Evaluation of Higher Education, through the approach of University Extension, and the character of the expansion of higher education to the northeastern backlands.
