Abstract (English): Dual education is a pedagogical model that integrates theoretical training in higher education institutions with professional practice in real-world business environments. This article aims to identify, through a systematic analysis of the literature published since 2018, the advantages, limitations, and future prospects of dual education in Ecuadorian higher education, with an emphasis on undergraduate and technical degrees. A systematic literature review was conducted using the IMRAD approach, with content analysis of 47 documentary sources from the Scopus, SciELO, Dialnet, and Redalyc databases, as well as institutional repositories. The results show that dual education generates significant improvements in labor market integration, with average salary increases of USD 275 and a 2.6-month reduction in employment time. It also strengthens university-business partnerships and develops relevant professional skills. However, structural limitations persist, including limited business participation, insufficient monitoring regulations, and a gap between curricula and labor market demands. The outlook suggests that the recent approval of the Organic Law on Dual Training (2026) represents a regulatory milestone that could transform the Ecuadorian higher education system, provided it is accompanied by policies on financing, teacher training, and intersectoral collaboration.

Abstract (Spanish): La educación dual constituye un modelo pedagógico que integra la formación teórica en instituciones de educación superior con la práctica profesional en entornos empresariales reales. El presente artículo tiene como propósito identificar, mediante un análisis sistemático de la literatura vigente desde 2018, las ventajas, limitaciones y prospectiva de la formación dual en la educación superior ecuatoriana, con énfasis en los niveles de grado y tecnológico. Se empleó el método de revisión bibliográfica sistemática bajo el enfoque IMRyD, con análisis de contenido de 47 fuentes documentales procedentes de bases de datos Scopus, SciELO, Dialnet, Redalyc y repositorios institucionales. Los resultados evidencian que la formación dual genera mejoras significativas en la inserción laboral, con incrementos salariales promedio de USD 275 y reducción de 2,6 meses en el tiempo de empleabilidad, fortalece la vinculación universidad-empresa y desarrolla competencias profesionales pertinentes. No obstante, persisten limitaciones estructurales relacionadas con la participación empresarial limitada, la insuficiente normativa de seguimiento y la brecha entre los planes de estudio y las demandas del mercado laboral. La prospectiva señala que la reciente aprobación de la Ley Orgánica de Formación Dual (2026) constituye un hito normativo que podría transformar el sistema de educación superior ecuatoriano, siempre que se acompañe de políticas de financiamiento, capacitación docente y articulación intersectorial.
