Target Audience

This program’s target audience consists of graduate level academics who are interested in a career as researchers in a public or private higher education institution and/or educational or social science research centers, and, to a lesser degree, as educational managers in higher education institutions that require administrators who hold a doctoral degree. At present, and at least in the immediate future (the next 50 years), the number of professors with a doctorate in the area of education that Mexico and other Latin American countries will need simply to assure the minimum accreditation of institutions that offer graduate programs in education is so vast that the demand is more than 15 times greater than the supply. If all the current doctoral programs in education were to accept students at full capacity, the institutional requirements in the nation’s faculties for doctors in education would not be met even over the next 25 years.

Participants in this program should have the fo- llowing characteristics:

The commitment to be an academic researcher, working in an educational institution and per- forming scientific teaching, research and disse- mination activities in their local community.
A critical-strategic spirit, with the desire to in- novate in their field, focusing on achieving the ongoing enhancement of the educational envi- ronment.
An interest in conducting research in one of the areas currently offered by the program: a) Ad- ministration and management of educational change; b). The student as a learner; c). The role of the professor and of learning in the educa- tional process; d) The social impact of innovati- ve educational models; e) Education in physics and mathematics
A commitment to improving the social and po- litical environment of Latin American countries and enhancing the quality of life of its inhabi- tants through education across all its aspects.
The openness for internationalization, to know what is being done in other countries and to learn from them, sharing what their own coun- try is doing, seeing the world as a whole, all na- tions with the same principal goals of providing a quality education for its people.
The ability to receive and produce influential information in Spanish and English; to read re- search reports and papers from scientific pu- blications; and profit from texts and articles in both languages.
The desire to act as an agent of change by exa- mining, redefining and motivating people to act.
