Summary/Abstract: The aim of the text is to present ways of understanding by the students of the master’s studies (II cycle) of pedagogy at the University of Szczecin of their own potential for changes of the world and own position in it. The theoretical perspective of analysis is theory of emancipation through education. Focus on the adaptive rationality indicates the prevalence of adaptive attitudes over transgressive. From the narrations of participants of research emerges attitude to gain of specialized, narrow competences as well as the predominance of instrumental rationality, the adaptation to an existing order. This makes that the center of attention are individual matters, personal, timely, current and short-term. On the basis of the results of these studies, it can be concluded that the academic education is a chance, but due to the organization and the rigid framework of qualifications, it is mainly a barrier of emancipation.
