Abstract
La masificación de la educación superior provocó un aumento en las matrículas de nuevos perfiles de estudiantes, en donde los estudiantes de primera generación son uno de ellos. Los cuales presentan sus propias características, como el hecho de la permanencia y abandono de los estudios superiores ante los demás estudiantes. El objetivo de esta tesis es analizar la relación que tienen los capitales social, cultural y económico de los estudiantes de primera generación respecto a la intención de abandono en una universidad privada. Es un estudio de carácter descriptivo e inferencial en donde se analizó una encuesta creada por una universidad privada de manera online, realizando tantos análisis descriptivos de las variables como regresiones. Los resultados muestran que sí existen relaciones entre los capitales y la intención de abandono, donde el capital social y cultural incorporado son los que mejor predicen la intención de abandono de los estudiantes de primera generación. En base a los resultados, se requieren políticas que fomenten la permanencia de los estudiantes en base a las relaciones sociales y que les permitan obtener herramientas para su integración y permanencia en la universidad; además, se requieren investigaciones que planteen las diferencias entre géneros de los estudiantes.
The massification of higher education has led to an increase in the enrollment of new student profiles, of which first-generation students are one. These students present their own characteristics, such as the fact of permanence and abandonment of higher education compared to other students. The objective of this thesis is to analyze the relationship between the social, cultural and economic capitals of first-generation students and their intention to drop out of a private university. It is a descriptive and inferential study in which a survey created by a private university was analyzed online, performing both descriptive analyses of the variables and regressions. The results show that there are relationships between capitals and the intention to drop out, where social and cultural capital are the best predictors of the intention to drop out of first-generation students. Based on the results, there is a need for policies that encourage the permanence of students based on social relations and that allow them to obtain tools for their integration and permanence in the university; in addition, research is required that considers the differences between genders of students.
