Expectativas Profesionales de Universitarias en Áreas Predominantemente Masculinas: Un Análisis Cualitativo

Airton Pereira do Rego Barros, Ligia Carolina Oliveira Silva

Resumen


Todavía hay carreras en las que sigue el predominio masculino. En este sentido, el objetivo de esta investigación es analizar las expectativas de alumnas insertadas en carreras predominantemente masculinas. Para llevar a cabo el estudio, se realizó una investigación cualitativa en la que participaron 41 alumnas. Se utilizó un cuestionario con 7 preguntas abiertas para explorar la percepción de barreras de género, motivaciones, expectativas y desafíos con relación al mercado laboral elegido. Los resultados apuntan a que las entrevistadas buscan estas carreras por un interés genuino, pero necesitan hacer más esfuerzos para que su trabajo sea valorado y expresan su insatisfacción con respeto a barreras de género tales como el acoso y los prejuicios. Se discute la existencia de la división sexual de tareas y la atribución a los hombres de características socialmente deseables como la racionalidad y la competitividad. Se espera que el estudio sirva como fuente y preocupación por la inequidad de género en áreas predominantemente masculinas, destacando la existencia de problemas sociales arraigados culturalmente y proporcionando la base para proponer estrategias para el cambio.
