Abstract

PERALTA., Silvana Alicia et al. Analysis of graduate graduates at an Argentine university. InterCambios [online]. 2020, vol.7, n.2, pp.79-93.  Epub Dec 01, 2020. ISSN 2301-0118.  https://doi.org/10.2916/inter.7.2.9.

The expansion of postgraduate careers in our country has had a sustained development in the last decades, however, the growth process falls into disharmony when we notice the few graduates that occur in the same period referred to, which does not reach 10 %. At the Faculty of Philosophy, Humanities and Arts (FFHA) of the National University of San Juan (UNSJ), Argentina, the picture is no different.

This work presents a descriptive analysis of the FFHA-UNSJ master’s degree discharges, considering the period 2000-2019. The temporary cut is arbitrary and the selection of careers is due to having the thesis preparation as an academic requirement to obtain the corresponding degree.

In the first instance, some theoretical approaches are presented that review the production in the academic field on the subject to be addressed, in a second section a brief characterization of the careers mentioned in the third section is presented quantitatively (by careers) the graduates for the period considered and the actual duration that the students used to graduate, and in a final section some perceptions and meanings that graduates have on the mentioned careers are qualitatively addressed, closing the article with some provisional conclusions.

Keywords : analysis; expenditure; postgraduate; Argentina.
