Abstract
Results of a quantitative research based on students’ perspective of a Mexican public higher education institution regarding their educational program are presented, in the context of a curricular evaluation process; responses of 171 students to a survey that addressed five areas of the curriculum: Level of satisfaction with the graduate profile, learning content, method, evaluation, and remote emergency teaching due Covid-19. As a result, the five variables were valued as "satisfied" by the students, with the graduate profile being the best evaluated with an average of 4.32 points. A Student's t test for independent samples using the variables of sex and the 4 main variables of the study, showed that the means do not differ significantly at the p<.05 level in any of the cases. A one-way ANOVA analysis of variance was calculated to find out if there was a significant influence of the year over the same 4 variables, concluding that there was no statistically significant difference in the means of assessment of any of the variables studied between at least two groups.
