Resumo
La implementación del Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior está coincidiendo
con la grave crisis económica actual, con consecuencias importantes para las
universidades. El abandono de estudios es uno de los fenómenos protagonistas
en los debates sobre eficiencia del sistema universitario, consecución de la
excelencia y las políticas educativas de rendición de cuentas. En este artículo
presentamos resultados de dos investigaciones que exploran este fenómeno a través del estudio de caso de la Universidad de Valencia (España) y de la Universidad
de Lisboa (Portugal). A través de los resultados sobre los motivos de
abandono de estudios declarados por los estudiantes, parece existir una escisión
entre el abandono de estudios universitarios y la dificultad académica. En
una segunda parte del artículo, se plantea un cuestionamiento del concepto de abandono de estudios en su aplicación al ámbito universitario y se propone una nueva conceptualización más acorde con la realidad estudiada.
The implementation of the European Higher Education Area is coinciding with the current economic crisis, with important effects for universities. The university drop-out is one of the topics in the current debates about the university system efficiency, the achievement of excellence and the educational policies of accountability. In this paper we present results of research that explore this topic with a case study of the University of Valencia (Spain) and the University of Lisbon (Portugal). Through the results on drop-out reasons answered by the students, there seems to be a split between the university drop-out and the academic difficulty. In the second part of this article, we question the concept of dropout in their application to university and we propose a new conceptualization more in line with the reality studied.
