Expectativas de los Doctorandos Chilenos: Insumos para la Elaboración de un Perfil de Egreso Doctoral

In this study, it is proposed to identify the expectations of doctoral students in the areas of education and social sciences in Chile, on training at this level, to obtain inputs for the subsequent preparation of a doctoral graduate profile that includes these expectations. To collect the data, a mixed abstraction instrument was developed which characterizes three dimensions: a dimension related to the doctoral students' expectations in academic terms, another to the reasons for the choice of the program being studied and the last one to the projections and context elements such as scholarships and accreditation processes. The methodology used is quantitative, non-experimental, of cross-section over the frequencies. As results, the doctoral students' expectations in each of the aforementioned dimensions are presented, allowing to establish the competences that a Chilean doctorate program must contain.
