EL ALUMNADO DE LA UNIVERSIDAD DE EXTREMADURA. UNA PERSPECTIVA DE GÉNERO

Abstract

The historic events that have been a part of University of Extremadura from its creation, have also been a permanent characteristic along its life. In this period of time we have seen growing of titles and schools, and also of people in the community (professors, alumni and administrative and services personnel). Nevertheless, all the changes along these times, including a greater participation of women in the university life, still keep structural and hierarchical differences in career election by these women. So that we still can speak in this university of mal e and female rolls when selecting studies, in other words, typically male or typically female careers. A simple look at the statistics offered along this work demonstrates that e11gi11eering studies are still being selected by a smaller number of women than men do.
