Análisis de la deserción en la corporación universitaria minuto de Dios Centro Regional Madrid

Resumen

The study shows an investigation of the variables and principles of the phenomenon of desertion in the University Corporation Minuto de Dios (Uniminuto), from which a retention plan is presented. The investigation contemplated two stages: an exploratory one, through which the state of the desertion was established statistically and the consistency of the information contained in the SPADIES was evaluated, and another descriptive-explanatory, that inquired about the variables and related causes with the phenomenon of desertion, at the same time as it determined the degree of utilization that the students make of the supports offered by the University. The results allowed to establish that the causes of desertion vary according to the population group that is analyzed, as well as to confirm that the characteristics of the studied population such as gender, age and semester in which students drop out, coincide with findings of the literature. Likewise, there was a low use of student services and the need to make a proposal for a retention plan.
