Abstract
This paper examines the intersection of two biographical roles: That of mother and student. Using the normative life-course approach, we analyze patterns of transition to adulthood among Mexican youth. We then compare the trajectories of students with and without children who entered the Universidad Autonoma Metropolitana-Azcapotzalco between 2006 and 2013. In general, the biographical and educational trajectories of female students with children differ significantly from the normative role assumed by higher education institutions. We conclude with some notes that aim to deepen our understanding of the strategies and resources employed by student mothers in order to remain in college.
期刊介绍:
La Revista de la Educación Superior (RESU) es un medio que se propone publicar textos académicos originales sobre la educación superior mexicana, con apertura a la dimensión internacional. Sus destinatarios son tanto investigadores que trabajan temas de educación superior como directivos, especialistas e interesados en planeación, evaluación y gestión de las instituciones y sistemas de educación superior. Por consiguiente, se difunden artículos de investigación, ensayos académicos y reseñas críticas, que propicien que los lectores enriquezcan su bagaje conceptual y analítico, y amplíen su conocimiento acerca de los retos que enfrentan los sistemas e instituciones de educación superior en los entornos nacional e internacional.
