Abstract

This work is the product of a research that has been developing for some years, and has as its main background a characterization of the scientific field of Mexico where an unequal distribution of economic resources in state public universities is reported. Likewise, the research shows that as of 2008 in the Mexican context the possibilities to enter the world of science in Mexico are reduced given that from that date onwards there has been a significant decrease in relation to academic places for research. In addition, there is a process of non-retirement of researchers that hinders the entry of new researchers. Hence, it was decided to pay attention to doctoral graduates from that date on to capture their strategies for entering the workforce.
