A study carried out with a sample of 74 undergraduate applicants on management in a technological institution in northern Mexico showed greater interest from women, reaching a parity index of 1.39, with 69.8% being engineers. Hypothesis tests indicate that there are no significant differences between men and women for age, career, labor sector, study modality. Nor for professional profiles such as: project management, intellectual property, social responsibility, entrepreneurship or education. However, the factorial analysis shows a clear difference in the integration of components for women and men. Women present two well-separated groups of elements: the previous profiles, and the virtual or mixed study modalities. In men, the following stand out: intellectual property, social responsibility and entrepreneurship; and there is no preference in study modalities.

The main objective of this research was to determine the relationship between household load and the academic performance of female architecture students at a private university in Piura, Peru. The research methodology was basic, with no alteration of any variables (non-experimental), simple correlational, and cross-sectional. The population consisted of 416 female architecture students, and the sample consisted of 200. A significant relationship (0.000) was found. This correlation is highly negative. This implies that the greater the household load, the lower the academic performance of female architecture students.

La pandemia de COVID-19 interrumpió globalmente la educación superior, exacerbando desigualdades preexistentes. Este estudio evalúa si las estudiantes de Administración Pública en Colombia experimentaron una disminución diferencial en el examen Saber Pro postpandemia comparado con sus pares masculinos, y el rol de la modalidad de estudio. Mediante diferencias en diferencias con datos transversales repetidos de las cohortes 2019 (prepandemia) y 2022 (postpandemia), se analiza el sexo como variable de tratamiento. Los resultados muestran que la brecha de género se amplió ligeramente postpandemia (-2,0% en puntaje global para mujeres), diferencia pequeña y marginalmente significativa. La modalidad presencial se asocia positivamente con el desempeño (+9,0%), controlando por variables socioeconómicas. Los hallazgos sugieren que la educación presencial actuó como factor protector ante la pérdida de aprendizaje postpandemia, mientras que el impacto de género, aunque presente, no es sustantivo en magnitud.

The study evaluated the CE3 policy (2024-2025) for gender equality at the Entrepreneurship Center of the Bolivarian University of Ecuador. The study found that the policy achieved nearly equal participation (51% women and 49% men, a difference of 2%), which exceeds the UNESCO threshold and reduces historical gaps by 78%. Using a mixed methodology of normative analysis, interviews, and focus groups, key barriers were identified, including evaluative biases (78%), inadequate infrastructure, and psychosocial self-disqualification (affecting 36% of rural women). Proposed solutions include dynamic teacher hiring algorithms (β = 0.85) and employability metrics. The model is aligned with SDGs 4, 5, and 10 and offers a replicable framework. However, gaps persist in technical sectors (four women versus 17 men). Institutional adaptations such as flexible schedules, breastfeeding rooms, and gender-sensitive mentoring were crucial in reversing the initial male predominance ratio (17:1 in 2024 to 5.3:1 in 2025, p < 0.001), though gaps in technical programs persist (4:17).

The primary purpose of this research was to determine the relationship between family support and the continued study of architecture among young women at a private university in Piura, Peru. Due to the characteristics of the research, it was basic, simple correlational, quantitative, and non-experimental. The study population consisted of 430 young women architecture students at a private university in Piura, Peru. The sample size was 204. The research participants completed two questionnaires. The main result was that family support had a significant relationship (0.000<0.050) with the continued study of architecture among young women. This correlation level was very high and positive, with a correlation coefficient of 0.948. The conclusion reached was that family support was essential for the continued study of architecture among young women at a private university in Piura, Peru.
