Abstract
La sociedad ha clasificado algunas carreras como masculinas bajo la presunción de que los hombres se desenvuelven mejor en ellas que las mujeres. Este es el caso de las ingenierías. Por esta razón, en estas carreras la participación de las mujeres así como su desarrollo laboral ha sido menor que la de los varones. El objetivo de esta investigación fue determinar a partir de un análisis documental el nivel de formación de las mujeres y su desarrollo laboral en áreas de ingeniería, en comparación con los varones. Se analizó 123 hojas de vida de mujeres y hombres formados en carreras de Ingeniería, tomando en cuenta únicamente ingenierías de ciencias exactas. Al comparar las hojas de vida de ingenieros e ingenieras del mismo rango de edad y carrera de formación, se encontró que las mujeres, aunque tengan la misma formación que los varones, tienen una trayectoria laboral de menor jerarquía que la de sus compañeros.
Society has classified certain careers as masculine under the presumption that men perform better in them than women. This is the case of careers in Engineering. For this reason, the participation of women has always been less significant than that of men in number and in career development. The objective of this research was to determine, from a documentary analysis, the level of training of women and their work trajectory in engineering compared to that of men. We analyzed 123 resumes of women and men trained in engineering careers, taking into account only Exact Sciences Engineering. When comparing the resumes of male and female engineers of the same age range and career training, we found that women, although they have the same training as men, have a career path of lesser rank than that of their colleagues.
