Modelo de supervivencia aplicado a la deserción estudiantil en la facultad de ingeniería de una universidad en la ciudad de Bogotá en la Cohorte 2017-1 a 2021-1

Abstract

The following work seeks to analyze the student dropout from the engineering faculty of a private university in the city of Bogot a through a survival model of Kaplan { Meier and Box Cox, for this purpose the enrollment of the year 2017-1 of the university and a new database was formed only with students enrolled in the Faculty of Engineering, subsequently the enrollment of students was followed up until the rst semester of the year 2021-1. In the survival analysis, the response variable is the time that elapses between an initial event (which determines the inclusion of the individual in the study) and a nal event (generically called failure) that occurs when the individual presents the characteristic to nish the study ( death, discharge from illness, desertion, etc.). In this type of cohort studies, it may happen that an individual abandons it before the event of interest occurs, registering only partial information (censorship) on the variable of interest (failure time). With this information collected, we want to establish the variables that a ect the monument in which a student decides to drop out of the Faculty of Engineering and if there are diferences between the desertion by sex, age and by careers in said faculty.
