Las Ingenierías en el Centro Universitario de los Lagos-U DE G: La realidad en números

Abstract

A long time has passed since the Aztecs demonstrated Mexican talent in different areas of engineering, so much so that today the field has diversified exponentially, the University of Guadalajara was no exception and in the particular case of the University Center of Los Lagos (CULAGOS), the offer has expanded, from traditional options such as Industrial Engineering to Biochemical Engineering or Industrial Administration Engineering. However, the novelty does not exempt reality and the problem even without effective solution, is the low terminal efficiency. The number of students admitted cycle after cycle is not reflected in the number of discharges. In the present work, the data of entrance to the different Engineering offered by the CULAGOS were analyzed, from its creation in the year 2004 to the present, the minimum and maximum scores obtained in the Academic Aptitude Test and its relation were taken into account with the number of graduates, as a possible cause for low terminal efficiency. The results obtained after tabulation and statistical analysis show a correlation between the entrance scores and the terminal efficiency.
