Abstract (English): Higher studies in agronomy, as well as physics and applied mathematics, were considered to have a greater male presence; as is the case of the then National School of Agriculture (ENA), today the Universidad Autónoma de Chapingo (UACH); which taught studies with an agricultural focus exclusively to men until 1973; therefore, the process of feminization began late in contrast to other universities such as the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) or the Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN). The objective of the research is to observe the change in women's participation over time. The Gender Parity Index (GPI) was used. The gpi reflects a process of feminization (GPI≥1) in various careers; not so in programs with a higher mathematics content. The gpi in researchers from the Universidad Autónoma de Chapingo (uach) is lower than that obtained in the same areas of knowledge in Mexico. Feminization has reached levels similar to other higher education institutions, but not for research activities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Los estudios superiores de agronomía al igual que la física y las matemáticas aplicadas eran consideradas con mayor presencia masculina; como es el caso de la entonces Escuela Nacional de Agricultura (ENA), hoy Universidad Autónoma de Chapingo (UACH); que impartía estudios con enfoque agronómico exclusivamente a hombres hasta 1973; por lo que, el proceso de feminización comenzó tardíamente a diferencia de otras universidades como la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (unam) o el Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN). El objetivo de la investigación es observar el cambio de participación de las mujeres a través del tiempo. Se utilizó el Índice de Paridad de Género (IPG) que refleja un proceso de feminización (ipg≥1) en diversas carreras; no así, en los programas con mayor contenido de matemáticas. El IPG en los investigadores de la Universidad Autónoma de Chapingo (UACH) es inferior al obtenido en las mismas áreas del conocimiento en México. La feminización ha alcanzado niveles similares a otras instituciones de educación superior no así para la actividad de investigación. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
